Etholakala phakathi kweVientiane noLuang Prabang, isikhathi eside saba uhlobo lokuma komgodi weLaos. Sizungezwe yindawo enhle ye-karst kanye nenqwaba yemicimbi ethokozisayo, izitolo zokuthenga namakhekhe, i-wangway akuyona eyodwa noma amahora amabili, futhi abahambi abaningi abakhathele bahlala lapha esikhathini esijana esihle kakhulu kunokuhlelwa ekuqaleni kwesikhathi.
Kuze kube muva nje, uWangway wayengeyena idolobha elikhethekile, lapho izivakashi zishayela ngokuthembekile. Ukugula i-pizza enkulu futhi kudonsele i-lao lao bhethi (i-whiskey yelayisi) yokubuka iziqephu ezingapheli ze- "bangani" - yilokho konke okungenzeka ukuthi kwenzeke, okusele ngosuku noma kwenye. Kepha manje konke kwehlukile. Izinsizakalo zokulawula ezilandela umsebenzi wemigoqo engekho emthethweni zifaka i-River Banks the River Bank ukwedlula zonke ukwephulwa komsebenzi kulokhu, ngakho-ke batshalwa (kwakungu-2012), ikakhulukazi ukuthi izivakashi ezidakiwe zifuna ukujabulela iziphuzo zotshwala, kepha zemvelo ezinhle kakhulu Ubuhle bale ndawo.
Kulabo abathanda ukuphuza futhi balenga emgqonyeni, bekujabulisa ukuhlala eWangway ngobusuku obuningana ngisho namasonto ambalwa - ukumiswa okude ngesikhathi sohambo eLaos. Ngenkathi kwawo wonke amanye ama-wangway nakanjani kwakuyiphuzu le-Obunye ubusuku obubodwa. Hhayi ukuthi uWatshweng wayezoba uhlobo oluthile lweTusov City, alukho lungelona iqiniso.
Kepha, ngaphezu kweminyaka emihlanu noma eyisithupha edlule, izivakashi ezafika edolobheni zibona izixuku zezivakashi ezibomvu, ubani ngemuva kwama-8 noma 9 pm athuke kakhulu emahhotela, lapho izindawo ezicindezelayo zingathululelwa khona futhi I-whisky ezingilazini, bese ulangazelela ubukele, eduze kwamabili, izivakashi ezibizayo zilele phakathi kwemigwaqo, zikha izithiyo zokunyakaza, ukuthi zinxusa kanjani amagama angaqondakali futhi alwe nomunye.
Iningi labavakashi eWangway lalingamaBritish, futhi la ma-comrade ayakwazi ukuphuza futhi ajabule, impela. Ngaphezu kwalokho, izidakamizwa ezishibhile zangena kulezo edolobheni. Manje sebetholakala kubavakashi, kanye nezingane ezincane, kepha akuphephile kakhulu. Vele, azikho izindaba eziningi lapho izivakashi ziboshelwe leli bhizinisi futhi ngokuvamile zitholakala, kepha namanje. (NgingowaseGoogle Wangwean - futhi owokuqala uzokhuphuka "Vang Vieng izidakamizwa", ekhipha!). Okungukuthi, idumela ledolobha laliyinto embi nje - yebo isono esinciphile, sabizwa nangokuthi "Grastly Grast" ("ngokweqiniso"). Ngaphezu kwalokho, izivakashi azizange zinamahloni lapha ukungcolisa futhi zonakalise izindawo ezinhle zomhlaba, zithini ama-fucks!
Kube nezinkinga ezinkulu ukuthi idolobha lizodida yonke imibono yakhe, njengoba yayikugxeka izivakashi, izidakamizwa notshwala. Othile wabhala, "Uma abasebasha bebuse umhlaba, khona-ke umhlaba ububukeka njengoWalingoy." Izindlela zokuphepha zePokatushek ku-Bun eziyintandokazi (i-tubing) zazikhona "ezikhona ezikhona", futhi ngenxa yale ngxube yokushoda kokulawula nokuphuza okubi, izivakashi eziningi zaminza. Babhala ukuthi kuphela kwabavakashi baka-2011 22 baminza emfuleni. Cabanga, ucabanga?
Kepha namhlanje, okuphambene nalokho okuphambene. Abantu abanesifiso sobusuku bama-vieght amaphaphema kanye nemigoqo ejabule, iba yisidina impela ezinsukwini ezimbalwa, futhi basuka lapho kuseshwa amakhona amatasa kakhulu. Kuwo wonke umuntu, ubuhle beqiniso besifunda sasibalulekile, ngakho-ke, namuhla i-wagway iyidolobha elizolile futhi elinokuthula, elihle impela elinomoya omnandi ngempela. Konke kuguqukile kakhulu ohlelweni lokugcina lweminyaka emihlanu, futhi lokhu kuyamangaza ukugubha zonke izivakashi, okufanayo nje, zazilele emigwaqweni ngemuva kwelayisi.
I-Lao National Tourist Organisation iqhuba "Izinhlelo Zemfundo" Lapha bese ucela izivakashi ukuthi "zihloniphe futhi zilandele ngokuqinile imithetho, izinhlinzeko kanye namasiko endawo yaseLao", ngenkathi izakhamuzi zendawo zicelwa ukuthi zisekele ubunikazi be-lao Ukuhlelwa kwempilo, isiko nokuvikela amanani amasiko, futhi ungalingisi izivakashi ze-Jungle.
Kuyaqapheleka ukuthi eWangway kunezinto eziningi gesthouse (ezinye zazo ezingabhuka online), izindawo zokudlela nezitolo. Cishe yonke i-counter noma isitolo emigwaqweni emincane yalokhu, kepha idolobha elikhula ngokushesha lisusa kubavakashi amadola, okulula kakhulu. Kepha, uma ufuna indawo eLaos, lapho ungajabulela khona isiko langempela leLao, i-wangweang akuyona le ndawo.
Isizathu sokuthandwa kwalesi Sivakashi seMecca namuhla nguMfula amahle kakhulu kithi u-US Song (Nam Iculo River) nezintaba ezinhle zeKarst ogwini lwalo mfula. Izakhiwo ezihlaba umxhwele ze-limestone zikhuphuka ngamandla emhlabathini futhi zelulela amakhilomitha amaningi, zifaka amasimu erayisi nomfula oyivila. Yize kumangaza nganoma yisiphi isikhathi sosuku, izintaba zalokhu zinhle kakhulu ku-pink-egolide ecwebezelayo okushona kwelanga, okukhanyisela amawa angemuva - Lesi isikhathi esihle sokuphuza nokuhlala endaweni yokudlela eziningi ezisogwini .
Uma ufuna uhlobo oluthile lwesenzo ne-adventure, thatha uhambo emihumeni, uzungeze uhambo oluhamba ngezinyawo (ukuhamba ngezinyawo, ugongolo), uKayaking kanye no-rafting. Yebo, nge-Ultra-adventure, ukukhuphuka kunikezwa. Futhi, sibheka isimo sezulu: Ngesikhathi semvula, kungahle kube khona imibundu ethile emfuleni.
Konke lokhu kungahlelelwa kuma-ejensi wendawo amaningi. Uma ufuna ukuphumula futhi ujabulele isimo se-wangway, ukuqasha isikebhe noma ishubhu elifanayo futhi ukubhukuda kwehla ngengoma egeza ngobuhle bemaphandla - lokhu okuthe xaxa kakhulu namuhla kuleli dolobhana namuhla.
Thanda lokhu. Futhi idolobha, ngendlela, lidala kakhulu, ngoba ngakusenza ngonyaka ngo-1353! Kepha akukho lutho olukhethekile edolobheni akwenzekanga kuze kube yiminyaka engama-60 yekhulu leminyaka elidlule, lapho i-United States ithuthukise futhi yakha lapha i-database ye-Air Force kanye ne-Runway, eyayisetshenziswa yi-Air America. Futhi ngemuva kwesikhashana, ukuthi idolobha lidume iqiniso lokuthi lezi ziphuzo eziningi zokuphuza kanye nama-adventurer zaqala ukuqiniswa lapha.
Ngakho-ke, le ndawo akuyona "ekhoneni elingafunwa" laseLaos, cha. Kepha i-beso, ngaphandle komuzi uzothola inguqulo "enokuthula" yeLaos, amakhona okuthula nokuvumelana nemvelo - ngokuvamile, lokho umphefumulo akufunayo ngemuva kwezinyanga zethu ezinzima.
Ukufingqa okungenhla, sifika esiphethweni sokuthi iWangway iphinde yathola kabusha i-Wangway Laboration-Laboration eco-izivakashi.
