Bad taste--PEAR--fourth tours Belgium

Fourth morning 8: 00 pm, everyone went downstairs, Wenhua travel car, ready to go to the Netherlands, Belgium for two days of travel. The driver was late for half an hour, but everyone's mood was not affected. Along the way, I was trapped, several days of intense work and pleasure have drowsy me toss, but beautiful Nordic scenery let I really couldn't sleep, so he had to make a fight of the eyelids to cheer up. The Paris urban area, has travelled to Brussels on the expressway, on both sides of the picturesque scenery. Remembered his painting of endless meadows and small houses, all colors of the trees, cows and sheep loose opposition among the flowers, is not here?

More than two hours later, we got to the Waterloo.

Boarding the cone filled with green grass beside the slopes, with symbolic Napoleon's bronze lions away looking, beautiful exotic land stretches to the horizon, imagine how ancient battlefield was a tragic and heroic and deductive too change the world history of famous battles, the mood is not quiet. In Waterloo, we met a group of a group of fellow Chinese, especially in Shanghai. But for the exotic side, I really think they are at home.

Waterloo only rush to stay for an hour, they continue to Brussels.

Brussels make me feel like a town, not the famous Belgium's capital city, NATO headquarters are located. It preserved ancient buildings and streets, not the bustling modern cities and feverish floating, but leisure tourists and calm rhythm and friendly locals. Famous Parliament Square is a place where tourists will come to the square around the church building was built and the Palace building, a complex structure and beautiful for the sculpture to let interested tourists stop to wander. The square has many open-air bars, business is good. A cup of coffee, lazy a sit, look at the traffic of visitors, the time and enjoy it.

A corner of the square there is a niche, niche people standing in a human body sculpture, he was dressed in white and white dress, white wig, face the overhand on coated with thick white paint, white lashes fall screened the dark eyes.

He sometimes standing in the niche in the motionless, as if a plaster sculpture; sometimes extremely slow movement, a variety of modeling; sometimes go out niches and tourists handshake Kiss, playfully to tourists for money. No matter what he is doing, like dumb as silent, perhaps afraid of a mouth, oral red will inevitably affected his "pure white" effect. Because there are too many onlookers, and eventually attracted Patrolmen's interference, so we had the privilege to see the sculptures of reality, he is like a bit of a businessman, jiujingshachang expertly and police and traffic; and so the police turned and, at their tongue (tongue very red, of course). On the other side of the square there is a statue of bronze statue of lies, is a hero, it is said that as long as the statue from head to toe touch it again you will get the best of luck. I have done according to the idea of total hope, there will be a magical power bless.

Square one side there is a narrow street is the famous handicraft shops gathered, we are with hundreds of Belgium francs (Belgium francs: French franc is 6: 1) to hold consumer a strong desire, eagerly looking for good and cheap souvenirs, unfortunately met this criteria.

Despair, go into a cartoon character-themed shop, find Tintin souvenirs, Adolfo, Captain, du help DuPont brothers, unfortunately, is too expensive for my hundreds of Belgium francs only enough to buy two small resin statue, pick a half-day, selected the Tintin and Adolfo grams.

At the end of the street is the famous Julien-pee boy sculptures and fountains, because today is may day, less than even put on heads of clothes as gifts.

Julien is the symbol of Brussels, you can see the image, sometimes appear in the spoon handle, sometimes appear in the fabrics and garments, there are a variety of chocolate Julien. Speaking of chocolate, Belgium is one more feature, dazzling variety, but nature is very expensive.

The Chinese tourists in restaurant (foot dozens of tables, all travel) used the lunch, visit the Agency's Museum (far) and Belgium Palace (from outside), we continue to move to Amsterdam.

Netherlands-based windmills, tulips clogs and cows, and the famous Amsterdam there is also a world-famous characteristics--open--drugs and prostitution, the red light district has become a popular tourist destination.

We start in the suburbs of Netherlands Customs Museum enjoy the Netherlands windmill, know the cheese and clogs processing technology, and food reward after the pastoral beauty of the city of Amsterdam.

Dinner: same, same everything in the restaurant are of Chinese, even the same recipe, we also experience the local Chinese tourism business booming.

Spacious restaurant abuzz, like walking into a wedding; government agencies, financial systems, rural enterprise, everyone is equal. The restaurant serves a set of dishes, each table is the same, cooks natural free from worry, speed are second to none. For a tour, we'll walk, guests, the attendant immediately branded cleaning, the next group of people at once. Guest master will understand that it is important to eat eating fast, say eat than to go to eat, here, is going to save time up to play, we also like a line, the rush to complete the task, the table to have to wait for the next table guests.

After dinner, tour guides take you to visit the red light district, the dense Web of narrow streets one got a full is vaulted.

But see how girls were dressed in exposed, in a large glass window or show off flair, winking, or vaguely looking from visitors, or leisurely chat own calling; different build different colour but have a common goal: to wait for the clients of patronage. Visitors (including men, women and children, of course, including the US) is the same as if you were in your Zoo visit. Actually don't know who's who. Where to travel in Europe, more than 80% will come to Amsterdam, why it goes without saying that human beings are kinds of psycho and glimpse the secret adventures, more more more of forbidden bikers. But have to admit that the Netherlands Government did this to me and disgrace of means of stimulating the local economy development, make travel money.>

Here, at home in the traditional vision can not or do not fit the public, information and description of all the mortgage went to veil, without shame even confidently display to the public, and everyone seems very natural to watch and enjoy it all, as if everything is perfectly justified.

But I always feel a little embarrassed.

Overnight accommodation away from the city of Hammlem town, lives in a scale of big four star hotel, I and swallows room on the ground floor, facing the street side are vaulted window is across the street.

Just see the mess and dirty red light district, we are unable to sleep. I've been to two points before you toss to sleep------dazzling day!

(The fourth day after the fifth day, to be continued)
