Elista Trip Pt:3

P1040029

so we continue out trip to Elista,when we enter the city.The first glimpse of it was just amazing =D.Although it seems like just an ordinary city,but once you explore more,you will find out its not just another Russian city, but a mix between Mongolian and Russian culture but sadly since that we are tourist,they kinda like to scammed us of the prices. Hahahaha anyway here are the pics of the Golden Temple in Elista,home to many of the “said to be reincarnation of Buddha itself”.

P1040039

                       The Buddha's in the courtyard

P1040032

    The great Golden gate*seriously all the roof top are gold plated *

P1040038 Me,Ee lin and Hansley =D

P1040047

P1040060 Wheeeee~

          My awsome friends -D  P1040049 P1040050 Same goes here =D!P1040052

 

Oh ya, Sorry,i can’t take pictures in the temple though.Its against the law by the way.So well at least the courtyard have some intersting things to do =D later on will show about the city itself ^.^

 

 

 

P1040061 

And oh ya ,just now previously there was the Wheels of Fortune right? This is THE BIGGER VERSION.Well we have to turn this from the North side in a clockwise direction(for the small and the big).Its said that for each bell/wheel turn,so to is your destiny and your fate but majority intemperate this as “Luck” .And as an offering,just place a coin on it.

 

 

 

P1040067                          no comments…xD!! 

P1040055

             and so we say goodbye to guy that looks like Confucius*at least i think so xD …….

Elista Trip…

P1040068                    Ahhh…the beauty…

Ok so yesterday me and a few of my batchmates went for a trip to Elista.Its a small city in the Kalmyk Region of Russia.Its not really a metropolitan city to be precise and its the citizen itself is a majority of Mongolian/Tibet mix with Russian.Nevertheless its a very beautiful yet nostalgic city =D with the a mix of Russian yet Buddhist ethnics.

P1030976                    A tv that doesn’t work..not surprising

So we begin our trip from early in the morning.We got on to the bus(which by far is the worst driver and bus ever..will explain soon).The 1st impression when i got on to the bus was not bad but when time pass i take back those words.LOL!..Its 5 hours trip to reach from Volgograd to Elista.

1st destination=Middle of somewhere (didn’t really catch what the tour guide was saying)  

                P1030979  

                           Some kind of orthodox church

So we arrive at this church or some sort which is literally infested with bugs and mosquito every where ==! and this church is in a really small village as in really “KUNO” village.Its really different from your ordinary church.Let the pictures explain in detail:

P1040009 A veil of the peace…

     P1030984 No idea…

            P1030985 Somekind of painting..

                   P1030988 Me and Ivan =D

P1030989 P1030994 P1030995 P1030997

                   P1040006
