Work Harder and Too Much People at Guang Zhou (China)

Hi Readers,

I still tried to keep writing lol, even sometimes i am so lazy which one i should write first, second, third, etc :p.

Ok back to China Mainland now, actually i like china mainland because it felt like my "planet" haha, everybody looked like me (the small eyes, the skin colours, the height, etc) yeah because it is my race. But not the culture, Indonesia still have good manner in everywhere rather then them.

I went here for almost 4 days and 3 nights, yeah i did something stupid :p. I was wrong calculating the day LOL it should be 2 days and 1 night but because of some reasons, we were there for that time. I went here from Yangchun (another provinse/regions, i will write about this place later) by bus around 4-5 hours and took around 100++ RMB.

Hmm what i can say about this place are too much people here, and the clothes price absolutely cheap in Gongyuanqian (Beijing Road) or Changshou Lu (You can check from the metro maps, and please check your ittenary with chinese words, check this link before - about how to survive in china mainland).

So in here i went to Pearl River by the cruise :-D, it is near Gongyuanqian or Haizhu Square (yeah near means it will make you walk between 15 minutes to 30 minutes lol) around 80 RMB with the food and the tea. The price actually depend on which packet do you want (i just found the cheap one in english words and i didn't wait too long for the schedule). Here some picture from the cruise :

I want go to Panyu Bao Mao Garden and White Cloud Mountain (if i am not wrong) which is very far from the city and it means a big cost. So, i didn't go there. I just went to Yue Xiu Park. That is a big park and i got lost in my wat for one hour to get back my first place :p.

And i went to some museums such as : 

• Sun Yat Sen Memorial - it is near Yue Xiu Park, and the place is so so for me nothing here just like a small concert/for occasion
  

  

  From outside the building | @dannywongso

• King Tomb - it is also near Yue Xiu Park, you can see the tombs inside the hills / building now. How they buried their king with their maids, and concubines. Yeah the king maids, staffs, and concubines also should die if the king passed away. With the king golds, jewelery, etc to show that their king's welfare. Poor them :(. And in here also they show old pillow (the rich hongkong/chinese couple gave their collections to this place) it was very funny too look the pillow haha. They made from clay with variations design and shape for sure. I can't imagine how hard it will be, you can get injury if you are not becarefull  (that is clay = solid and rigid :p)
  

  

  Yes this is a pillow from a clay |  @dannywongso

  A pillow looks for their hair?! | @dannywongso

• Chen Clan Academy - i liked this place, actually this place is an old but modern chinese house with the cool design and architect. They renovate this place with very good concept, they made this place for chinese arts (they also sell it too), like sculpture, jade, painting, etc. Of course i didn't buy it, it was very expensive amount for me. I just came, saw and took some pictures here.
  

  

  From outside, check for the architecture | @dannywongso

Trikora Beach at Bintan Island | Cabana Bintan Resort

Bintan Island is already famous around Kuala Lumpur and Singapore for sure. And this island have a name “Segantang Lada” because a lot of islands near this islands. If you have heard about Tanjung Pinang or Batam yeah the place is near there.

I went here because i had a business trip in Batam, and then my friend got brochure about Cabana Bintan Resort :-D. So i decided to go there rather than went to Singapore lol, because seriously it will easier for me to go Singapore from Jakarta rather than go to Bintan right? :p hehe. I went there just for two days one night, it enough for me (will bored if too long).

You can directly flight to Tanjung Pinang and then need one hour to go Cabana Bintan Resort. And if you are from Batam you need to take a ferry (the ferry schedule is from 07.00 to 18.00 every 30 minutes) and it take around 40.000 IDR + tax for 7.000 IDR. But the resort can pick up you just try to confirm it first.

The place is so quite, nice, and beautiful (good for honeymoon lol) so it will suitable for lonely people or couple. Because nothing outsite of the resort :p, this resort have two places (Agro Bintan Resort and Cabana Bintan Resort). They have shuttle to go, each place have different view (sports place and also good view restaurant also in Agro Bintan Resort). By the way, this is not advertising lol, i wrote this because i want to share this :-D.

We got a suites room, dinner and breakfast ^-^, i liked it so much. The food was delicious and the landscape also cool. The price seriously is not expensive in my opinion (worthed). And about the beach itself, yeah karimun jawa or derawan is still the best :-D. The sands feel like hmm 'mud' :p, and not much fish in here.

I got retweet from @instanusantara for my picture at Bintan lol (so it is why i am writing Bintan Island rather another country/place i went before lol) this is the link (retweeted by instanusantara for  29-Sep-2012 and the picture already got more than 1500 likes :-D)

Lawang Sewu and Mystery of Ghost? (Semarang City)

Lawang Sewu in English means one thousand door, why? because the building have many door (but i believe that the doors don't reach one thousand) and, that building estate from Holland (build on 1904-1907) and the function of the building as tour place now, before as a tour place lawang sewu are use as resistant place and office centre, why many people want to look that place because many interesting view inside.

***

Yes if you go there at the morning or afternoon, but how about you go there at the middle of the night. So scary? not really :p hehe, the place is very crowded even at the night. And the place is near police station, you will save :).

Why i write about lawang sewu? because...last time when i did a treadmill, i watched national geographic channel about "Mystery 360 Ghost bla2.." and this movie talked about ghost. They tried to prove about the ghost mystery in the old jail building, used modern technology. And the conclusion was awesome for me.

Here some picture in Lawang Sewu at the middle of the night :

From the front

From the right side of the building (looked scary) - portrait

From the right side of the building (check for the windows) - landscape

 And this is my summary from National Geographic about Ghost Mystery :

• The modern technology can't prove the existing of the ghost. No signs from their device.
• Infra Red --> it can't take smoke/fog movement
• Electromagnetic --> it can be anywhere because every device have the electromagnetic and will increase in some spots because of cable, signal, your device, etc.
• Sound --> it can happen because the place it self
• All of this happen because our physical and mind somehow work in the right way. According to the psychology test that people with the information (about the place is scary and maybe there is a ghost) and believe about the existing of the ghost, will make them more sensitive about the place rather than  the people without any information (about the place) and don't believe with the existing of the ghost. And they proved why some people can look some marks or signs about the ghost. All is because the place itself is very scary (make our mind feel something wrong and uncomfort), our mind about the place and ghost, and last some sounds in low frequency (sometimes it happen because the place makes this sound naturally) can make your eyes, nose, and ears more sensitive (not hallucinations). That proves how your eyes / ears / nose can see (the marks / the signs) / smell / hear (the sounds) something in some spots suddenly and that is not a suggestion/hallucinations.

So up to you, do you believe any mystery of ghost in the earth?
