With the growth of age and grandparents' age, she knows that only through her own efforts can she repay her grandparents' kindness based on society. At the age of 20, she was eager to learn computer technology and got a very good job, earning her first bucket of gold.
The year before last, she began to travel around Asian countries and read books that interested her. Her knowledge and vision have been greatly improved, and her English expression ability and English level have been rapidly improved, truly achieving "walking Wan Li Road and studying thousands of books".
As a girl who loves beauty, in her own words, traveling should be beautiful, beautiful and beautiful, and she did it. Actually, you should add a beautiful article. With the delicacy of a girl, she recorded her daily travel experience, with vivid words and detailed information, which has strong reference value.

"van"
The beauty at the check-in counter looked at me suspiciously and asked me to show my travel itinerary again. I handed it to her and answered "yes" firmly.
The capital of Turkey's Van province, where Kurds live, belongs to the same ethnic group as the Kurds in Syria and northern Iraq. They have been seeking independence, but they were suppressed by the three countries. The IS terrorist organization has ties with Kurds in Van province, and Turkey exerts high pressure on the province and has a large number of troops.
Because it is difficult to ensure safety, the Turkish government does not allow foreigners to enter the southeastern part of Turkey, but now it has relaxed. However, foreigners seldom come to such places, let alone people from China.
Arriving at Istanbul International Airport on April 8, I received a short message from the Global Consular Protection and Service Emergency Call Center of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs:
"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Embassy and Consulate of China in Turkey have reminded Turkish citizens to travel to Turkey cautiously in the near future, and not to travel to the southeastern part of Turkey and the Turkish-Syrian border area for the time being. Citizens and institutions in China continue to be on high alert, strengthen safety precautions and emergency preparedness, and avoid going to crowded places. In case of emergency, please call the police in time and contact the Turkish embassies and consulates in China ",and announced four contact numbers by SMS.
Mind you, my travel plan has already been made, and I won't change it without extreme circumstances. According to the original plan, after my trip to Turkey, I will transit from Fancheng to my next destination-Iran. This is the fastest way to leave the country, which saves time and money. At the same time, going to Iran by land from Turkey passes through a small town called Udo Bayazet, where there is a very beautiful Summer Palace of the Ottoman Empire. I want to have a look.
So, after my trip to Iran, I bought a plane ticket from Ankara to Fancheng, China and a plane ticket from Teheran to Shanghai.
Ankara Essenboga Airport.
Plans can't keep up with changes. I saw a donkey friend traveling to Armenia and Georgia by himself on the Internet. Both countries can go to landing visa, which aroused my great interest. I decided to shorten the travel time in Fancheng and Iran, squeeze out a week to go to these two countries, and it is also feasible to enter Iran by land from Armenia.
In other words, my original itinerary hasn't changed much. I want to fly to Fancheng and visit the Summer Palace in Bayazet.
In order not to miss the plane, I got up at four o'clock in the morning, walked eight miles to Red Crescent Square and took the airport bus to Ankara Airport. The above scene appeared when I changed my boarding pass. In fact, the beauty was just curious and finally changed my boarding pass and gave me a window seat.
The wing descended to Fan Lake in the city province.
2. Wandering in the East
The plane took off at 8: 30 on time and arrived at Fancheng Airport at 10: 05. Thanks to the minibus driver, he pulled me out of the entanglement of several taxi drivers, and I was particularly relieved to see that his bus was full of people.
Originally, I planned to stay in Fancheng for one or two nights. Due to the change of itinerary, I decided not to stay in Fancheng and went directly to Duowu Bayazet. When the minibus arrived in Fancheng, the driver only took the money from 2 yuan and took me to the intersection of the station bound for Duowu Bayazet. When I entered the station, I spent 25 yuan to buy a ticket for 12. Only once a day, luckily.
The coach station from Fancheng to Dawu Bayazet.
The distance from Van to Bayazet is112km. It's half past two in the afternoon. After getting off the bus, I asked to take a minibus to Pasa Palace in ishak, ishak, but there was no minibus. In order to save time, I chartered a car to and from 35 yuan. It's too expensive. Hacked by a taxi.
The Summer Palace is located on a hill 5 kilometers east of Bayazet. Tickets 5 yuan is the last large-scale building "Lale Devri" built by the Ottoman Empire (Tulip Period). It is the most typical representative of Ottoman architecture in the18th century and occupies an important position in the history of art.
The Summer Palace perfectly combines the architectural styles of Seljuk, Osman, Georgia, Persia and Armenia, and is called by LP to show the romance in the story of Arabian Nights. In the distance, you can overlook the highest mountain in Turkey, Ale Mountain at an altitude of 5 1.37 meters. The Anatolian plain under the hillside is intertwined with the beautiful scenery of the town. I feel like I came here on purpose. I'm very glad you came.
After returning to Daowu Bayazet from the Summer Palace, I found a very good hotel to stay. 40 yuan and three stars a night. After that, I went to the bus stop and planned to go to H0pa tomorrow. I asked several people and said that there was no through train, so I had to go to Heudre first.
I asked people all the way, and finally found the station and took some photos. This town used to be the capital of Turkey's Aale province, but it was moved for some reason, probably because it was also Kurdish.
I bought food in the market and then went back to the hotel. I didn't go out at night. Still have to listen to the reminders of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Embassy. After all, safety comes first.
On April 20th, I got up at six in the morning and had breakfast. I went to the station and took the 7 o'clock bus to Heudre (10 yuan).
In less than an hour, we arrived at Heudre and caught the 8: 30 bus to Kars (one bus every day). The fare is 25 yuan.
1 Arrived in Kars, but not in H0pa. It opens at 9: 30 and comes once a day. I'm trapped.
The eastern part of Turkey is relatively backward, with little mobility and underdeveloped transportation. I've realized that. I have no choice but to find a hotel to stay. The hotel is not as good as the night before, and the price is 10 yuan.
There was nothing to do in the afternoon, so I went to Kars Castle outside the city. The old castle is under repair, so there are no tickets.
Kars Castle, located on the hill north of Kars City, is a battleground between East and West. Historically, Russia and the Ottoman Empire fought for this place many times. The terrain here is very high, overlooking the mountain plain and Kars City, and the weather is magnificent.

At 9: 30 on April 2 1, I took a bus from Kars to H0pa, and I was going to go to Georgia through here.
The fare from Kars to Hopa is between 50 yuan and 100 RMB, which is a long way. In fact, it took the bus seven hours to arrive. There is still an hour before the bus leaves Hopa, and the weather has changed. The bus drove slowly in the clouds with fog lights, and it rained all the way down the mountain. I have an ominous feeling.
I was the only one who got off and went to Hopa. The driver told me the direction to Yamaguchi, so I let the minibus stop all the way in the light rain. Huo is a small border town, but it is nearly 20 kilometers away from the real customs clearance port SPAR.
At 5 pm, I boarded the minibus bound for Spal, the only port from Turkey to Georgia. Not too crowded. I successfully passed through the Turkish port and came to Georgia along the long tunnel.
I made a mistake when the crowd left. I ignored the two small rooms on the left and followed the crowd to the normal passage. I think even if I make a mistake, the staff will tell me where to apply for a visa on arrival.
When it was my turn, I said I would apply for a visa on arrival. The same is true of going to Brunei to handle landing visa in March. At present, the 120-hour transit sign at AirAsia Kuala Lumpur Airport is the same as the normal transit passage, except that the 120-hour transit sign is marked at the top of the passage, whereas it was clearly marked and marked in another place in the past.
I was too naive to pin my hopes on good customs service. I was wrong. After the staff took me directly to the office to inquire about the situation, they rudely opened the small door and asked me to go back to Turkey.
Turkish to bar harbor, Georgia.
I'm confused. Border inspection is awesome. Turkey, let me out. Georgia won't let me in. Now it is sandwiched between two countries, not outsiders.
After biting my teeth, I had to go to Turkey. I don't know what to do. Seize the opportunity. Fortunately, the Turkish border inspection atmosphere, after listening to my complaints, took me back as a loser.
When I got back to Hopa by minibus from Spa Port, it was already dark. I found a hotel near the minibus stop and thought about what to do next.
It's naive. It's been raining. I am wet, cold and hungry. Living in a small room without a bathroom is not cheap. Fortunately, there is wifi, so I can get help online. Please ask my friends in the travel agency to apply for an electronic visa online. But it was already two or three o'clock in the morning in Beijing time, so I had to wait for a reply the next day.
Sometimes people stick it out. At two or three o'clock in the evening, the hotel lost power and there was no phone call until the next morning. When I went out, it turned out that the whole town was out of power. Later, I learned that the power outage here is the norm.
At noon on April 22nd, when the electricity didn't come, I decided to check out and find another hotel. The room rate in 50 yuan is equivalent to RMB 100, but there is a toilet, but there is no electricity. Until three o'clock in the afternoon, the power was finally connected and wifi was available. I contacted my friend last night, and she told me that I couldn't apply for electronic signing until the 27th. I was afraid I wouldn't believe it, so I sent the loading map.
My return ticket is an AirAsia ticket to Kuala Lumpur on the evening of May 4th. Not to mention how unrealistic it is to stay in Hopa for another five days. Even if I stay, it's only eight days before my return trip. How is it possible to travel to three countries in eight days? Now I give up completely.
Since it is impossible, I can only go back to the earliest two-country tour plan, return to Dubai Yazet from Hopa Road, and go to Iran by land from there. Of course, on the contrary, I feel very relieved. Although I failed, haven't I been to eastern Turkey where foreigners are afraid to come?
H0pa stayed in the hotel for the second night.

4. Hopa Town
On the morning of April 23rd, I decided to go back to Bayazet in Dawu and buy a ticket at the bus station, but there is only one bus every day, and it leaves at night. Ok, let me have a whole day to see this border town.
Hopa is located in the northeast of Turkey, only 20 kilometers away from the Georgian border, and is an important town in northern Turkey. The vast black sea is facing the sea, and a sea-watching trestle leads directly to the sea. The seaside is a coastal pedestrian avenue, which is a good place for people to relax.
The vast black sea
Hopa is located in the northeast of Turkey, only 20 kilometers away from the Georgian border, and is an important town in northern Turkey. The vast black sea is facing the sea, and a sea-watching trestle leads directly to the sea. The seaside is a coastal pedestrian avenue, which is a good place for people to relax.
The population is small, and there are many hotels here, which are more open than other places in Turkey. The hotel TV broadcasts adult pornography all day, there are call girls in the hotel, and there are several nightclubs and bars in the alley behind the street.
Check out at noon, leave your backpack in the hotel and go to the Black Sea. Huge waves beat against the coast one after another, and the rumble of the waves echoed in my ears.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, the night bus departs from Hopa and leaves for Azet, Dubai. I was the only one on the bus, but my seat number was 17. Someone got on the bus along the way.
At 6: 30 in the morning of April 24, the conductor let me off, and the bus had to transfer to a place I didn't know. After getting off the bus, I felt something was wrong. This is completely different from the Dowu Bayazet I have been to. Let me go down with the conductor. I keep walking with a grain of salt, and when I meet passers-by, I say keep walking.
When I came to a fork in the road, I saw several people waiting for the bus. Kind of like last time I was on the side of the road. 1 1000 yuan bus returned to Bayazet town. The long-distance bus station in the town is quite far from the urban area, leaving enough space for the development of this town 100.
After waiting for half an hour, the bus hasn't come yet. It's cold, and I'm a little annoyed. At this moment, a bus came, and a passerby stopped me and told me to get on. I hesitated, this is not a bus. The bus was about to leave, and the passer-by told me to get on. I didn't think it was necessary for anyone to hurt me, so I got on the bus.
Passers-by and conductor are acquaintances and are busy chatting. I gave 1 yuan to the conductor. He didn't answer, smiled and took the 10 yuan in his hand, saying it was given by passers-by. Please give it to 15 yuan.
I want to get into a luxury car. 1 yuan bus has become 15 yuan, so I have to pay for it. The bus went straight ahead and the conductor poured me a cup of hot tea. Do you want to sit for a few minutes? You're welcome.
But the bus kept driving, and half an hour passed, and I didn't see the town I knew. An hour has passed, and my heart is beating faster and faster. I can't sit still any longer. I quickly ran to the seat where passers-by sat and checked it. It must be right for passers-by to smile.
After driving for another half an hour, I finally saw the long-distance bus station I had been to on the left-hand side of the bus. I felt a sort of surge of relief. Passers-by got off at the intersection, so I quickly got off, because I didn't have to stop, so I waited for the real bus on the side of the road.
After waiting for two minutes, a minibus came. I got on the bus and took out one yuan to the driver, and arrived in Bayazet. What surprised me even more was that this minibus actually drove all the way to the minibus stop where I was going to cross the border by land tomorrow, saving me the trouble of getting off and looking for a stop.
Later, I learned that I took the night bus from Hopa, and the destination was probably Fancheng. I was just passing by and didn't drive in to hit Bayazet. For example, I'm going to the county seat. This bus only passes through the border of this county. How to take the bus next is your own business.
Fortunately, I met a kind-hearted man on the road today. If not, how can we stop the car? And the distance is so far, it can be seen that everything is difficult to go out, especially in a foreign country where the language is unreasonable.
After getting off the bus, I successfully found the hotel where I stayed for the last night. I stayed here all day. After a rest, I went out again. I went to familiarize myself with the street from the hotel to the station and bought something to eat.
The atmosphere today is different from that of a week ago. Armored vehicles are on the street, all kinds of military vehicles can be seen everywhere, and soldiers with live ammunition can be seen everywhere. In order to write down the location of the station, I took some street photos. After being discovered by the soldiers, he called me over and looked at the photos he had just taken. They just asked me to delete them all, and they didn't particularly embarrass me.
I hurried away and found a military camp on the side of the road, but I didn't take it. Is it necessary to be so nervous? Somehow, I began to get nervous and walked on the pedestrian street. There are not many pedestrians, and their faces are relatively dull, unlike the last time they came, they greeted each other.
I quickly bought food and went back to the hotel. In the afternoon and evening, I hardly left the hotel and took some pictures of the scenery upstairs. I didn't know that the Turkish referendum was passed until I turned on the TV. Do you think Kurds will be happy? Soldiers should guard against them!

Dobaya's photo was taken on the roof of the hotel. The snow mountain ahead is the highest snow mountain in Turkey, Ale Mountain.

April 25th, 20 17 is the day when I transited Iran from Turkey by land.
Today will be very hard, so I will get up at 6 o'clock to make breakfast, and I will be full. Leave for minibus station at 7: 00. The minibus that leaves at 7: 30 will not be full until after 8: 00. Let's go!
Dokubayazit (Dokubayazit) to Gurbulak (Turkish border crossing) is 35km. After paying the fare of 10 yuan, there are only three steel jumps left. The minibus arrived at the port in less than an hour. Because it is too early, there is no one here except the rich vendors. When asked, the transaction price was 100 USD 3.5 million Iranian riyals, and there was no counter-offer. I decided not to change it.
I stood at the entrance of the port, looked back at the snowy Ale Mountain in the distance, and said to myself, Goodbye Dawu Bayazet! Goodbye Turkey!
Correction: The exchange rate is USD 65,438+000 to IRR 3.2 million, but there is no counter-offer. I decided not to change it.
I stood at the entrance of the port, looked back at the snowy Ale Mountain in the distance, and said to myself, Goodbye Dawu Bayazet! Goodbye Turkey!
I walked more than 200 meters and went to Turkey for border inspection. Only one window is open. The border inspector took my passport and read it again and asked me something. I said I didn't understand English prevarication. In fact, I know he is asking me, why are you still in Turkey when you have stamped Turkey's exit stamp?
I picked up the phone at the border checkpoint and called. It is estimated that he called bar harbor thousands of miles away, because I left Turkey there, and then I failed to cross the border and return to Turkey. This phone call lasted more than ten minutes, and I was not in a hurry or nervous. I have an Iranian visa. I'm afraid you won't let me go.
