are you kidding me????

On Monday there was a big snow storm in UB!
Snow, rain (a lot and then all the streets are under water), cold, wind, well not so nice!
And the worse is to find a taxi with this weather!
But I managed!
Look at that, and this is almost June, incredible
hum…
But the next day the weather was good, and today full sun, well I stopped to try to figure out!

a day trip in Terelj

I have done a day trip to Terelj national park. This is about 60 km away from UB.
There you have the Manzushir Monastery.
the particularity is here...
you have to turn a wheel and it gives you a number
after you have to find the panel with the corresponding number and you can read a sentence, mine is later...
the monastery has really bright colors and so do I!
there are also some paintings in the mountains and I really wonder how they managed it!
and this is THE bridge to go to the monastery. I am still wondering how the all thing didn't fall dawn…
Scary but I managed it!
then the stairs, also a killer part!
and finally the monastery that you can visit. And the guardian will make jokes for you, don't remember them but it was funny!
Inside you have a lot of paintings from buddha
and also there this is full of colors
and beautiful paintings
on the outside you have representation of hell and paradise
you decide which one is which one
but ohhh my god this look horrible!
the monastery has the shape of an elephant and you can also see then in the roof
this is next to the monastery
and the door is just amazing
and inside you have some representation of buddha
some protecting god
and the foot of buddha
as I said the monastery is in the mountains, still yellow for the moment
Here you should see the elephant shape, I have to say difficult for me to see….
these are the prayers wheel and this is still frozen as you can see
I like this effect picture from me
and here the sign that you see is the buddhist sign not the other one!
and this is the sentence corresponding to my number.
I have to say that I am still wondering what is the exact meaning….
after that direction turtle rock
and the praying man rock
big helicopter :-)
and so great a herder in a deel with many horses
so nice
especially the small ones!
Love it!
Well great day trip to get some fresh air out of UB!
