点评:Located in a remote corner of Madolenihmw Municipality in Southeastern Pohnpei, this is the remains of the Saudeleur Dynasty, c. 1100-1200, The mystery is how these large rocks, some several tons heavy, were moved from the other side of the island and placed strategically using 1200s technology.
After paying 3 different "toll collectors" for use of private property to access, you park at a private residence and walk along a 1/2 mile long trail of sharp stones through the jungle. After crossing several rickety footbridges, you come the the only remaining structure of what was once a large city. You wade through the canal at low time only and climb on the the manmade island that is surrounded by canals like a moat surrounding a castle. You are free to enter the building and walk around the perimeter.
Placed in the jungle with you as possibly the only visitors at the time, it's a scene out of an Indiana Jones Movie. Access is self guided, by foot at low tide and boat at high tide tide. Please check the tides before coming. As of July 2025, tolls / entrance fees totaled $28.00 per person. Bring good walking shoes that can get soaked,
翻译:这处遗址位于波纳佩岛东南部马多莱尼姆市一个偏远的角落,是约公元1100年至1200年索德勒王朝的遗迹。令人费解的是,这些巨石,有些重达数吨,是如何从岛的另一边搬运过来,并运用13世纪的技术巧妙地安放在那里的。
向三个不同的“收费员”支付了使用私人土地的费用后,您将车停在一处私人住宅,然后沿着一条半英里长的尖石路穿过丛林。穿过几座摇摇欲坠的人行桥后,您将来到这座曾经是大城市的唯一残存建筑。您只能在低潮时涉过运河,爬上人工岛屿,岛屿周围环绕着运河,就像护城河环绕着城堡一样。您可以自由进入建筑,并在周围漫步。
置身于丛林之中,您可能是当时唯一的访客,这仿佛是《印第安纳琼斯》电影中的场景。可自助前往,低潮时步行,涨潮时乘船。请在前往前查看潮汐情况。截至2025年7月,过路费/入场费总计为每人28美元。请穿着舒适的步行鞋,以免被水浸湿。
