点评:We've been travelling in Asia a fair bit and we've been to almost every pagoda and temple in each place we visited and this one in my mind tops them all as far as imposing and grand goes! It is massive and even more impressive inside - the walls are lined floor to ceiling with gold buddha statues! Mind blown!
It takes 759 steps the top (I counted them!) and back down, which we did in 32 degree heat - it was hectic, but so worth it! (Our guide dropped us off at the bottom and checked several times if we were up for it - maybe not thinking these two oldies will make it. About an hour later he called us to see if we made it to the top yet and we were already back down at the bottom, much to his surprise! LOL)
I believe there is an option to be driven to the top but don't quote me on it. We were the only people there that day and we did not see any cars or tuk-tuks or motorbikes when we got to the top. That said, we're not really fit and although we had to stop every 20 steps or so to catch our breath, I never felt like we would have to turn around.
Even if there is an option to be driven to the top, I would really recommend the climb to enjoy all the statues along the way and the amazing views as you go. (And to revel in the achievement of making it all the way!)
Also, this temple is a bit of a drive and out the way - you'll need to hire a driver with a car, so I'm guessing that's why not too many people go there.
翻译:我们在亚洲旅行了相当多的时间,我们几乎去过我们参观的每个地方的每一座宝塔和寺庙,在我看来,就气势和宏伟而言,这一座是所有寺庙中最高的!它的内部非常巨大,更令人印象深刻——墙壁从地板到天花板都排列着金色的佛像!心碎了!
我们在 32 度的高温下完成了 759 级台阶(我数了数!),然后又下来了 - 虽然很忙,但很值得! (我们的导游让我们在底部下车,并检查了好几次我们是否准备好 - 也许没想到这两个老家伙会成功。大约一个小时后,他打电话给我们,看看我们是否到达了顶部,我们已经回到底部了,这让他大吃一惊!哈哈)
我相信有一个选择可以推动到顶峰,但不要引用我的话。那天我们是那里唯一的人,当我们到达山顶时,我们没有看到任何汽车、嘟嘟车或摩托车。也就是说,我们的身体状况不太好,虽然我们每走 20 步左右就要停下来喘口气,但我从来没有觉得我们需要转身。
即使可以选择开车到山顶,我也强烈建议您攀登,欣赏沿途的所有雕像和沿途令人惊叹的景色。 (并陶醉于一路走来所取得的成就!)
另外,这座寺庙需要开车去,而且有点偏——你需要雇一个有车的司机,所以我猜这就是为什么没有太多人去那里的原因。
