点评:We spent 11 days in Ethiopia, from July 12th to 23rd, travelling as a group of six. We visited both the north (Lalibela) and the south (Arba Minch, Jinka and the surrounding area).
We flew to Lalibela and spent more than two days there. I travel a lot, but I was genuinely amazed by the experience. Why? In many famous places, such as the Taj Mahal, it is difficult to simply enjoy what you are seeing. Huge crowds, people pushing past each other, everyone taking selfies — for me, it can be quite awful.
Lalibela was completely different. It was just the six of us, the local people and our guide, Kassahun. Everyone was friendly and helpful.
When we visited the churches, we happened to come across religious ceremonies taking place there. There was no problem at all with entering and, in fact, even taking part in the ceremonies. It was an incredible experience: the music, the sounds, the traditional clothing, the religious objects and all the details around us. We were able to see everything up close, take photographs, and learn about the history and meaning behind what we were seeing.
If you need a guide in Lalibela, I can wholeheartedly recommend Kassahun (WhatsApp: +251 985 259 442). He took very good care of us and made our visit a truly memorable experience.
翻译:我们在7月12日至23日期间,以六人小组的形式在埃塞俄比亚游览了11天。我们既去了北部(拉利贝拉),也去了南部(阿尔巴明奇、金卡及周边地区)。
我们乘飞机抵达拉利贝拉,并在那里停留了两天多。我经常旅行,但这次的体验真的让我惊叹不已。为什么呢?在许多著名景点,比如泰姬陵,人们很难静下心来欣赏眼前的美景。人潮拥挤,人们互相推挤,每个人都在拍自拍照——对我来说,那真的相当糟糕。
拉利贝拉则完全不同。当时只有我们六个人,还有当地居民以及我们的导游卡萨洪。每个人都很友善且乐于助人。
当我们参观那些教堂时,恰巧碰上了正在举行的宗教仪式。我们完全可以进入教堂,事实上甚至还能参与仪式。那是一次难以忘怀的体验:音乐、声响、传统服饰、宗教物品,以及周围的一切细节。我们能够近距离观看一切,拍摄照片,还能了解所见事物背后的历史与意义。
如果您在拉利贝拉需要导游,我衷心推荐卡萨洪(WhatsApp:+251 985 259 442)。他悉心照料我们,让我们的行程成为了一段终生难忘的体验。
