Shanghai Trip Part 5: Huangpu River Cruise

Aku nak sambung posting Shanghai (sebelum menanah mata tengok gambar Perth) ....aritu sibuk kan ...mula2 sibuk raya ...then sibuk students masuk and class starts ...then family matters ke sana ke sini ...then gi Kuantan (yang nie semua posting dah selesai) ...baru ada masa sambung balik posting Shanghai ....

Kali nie nak cerita tentang river cruise along Huangpu River ...aku before pi sana google kan tourist attractions ...org komen kat website kata kalau masa terhad better buat river cruise ....sekali  harung tengok view ....so, memang daha put on the list of place to visit lah ......aku pi on the day before balik malaysia ....that whole day aku free ....so awal lah bertolak .....kalau tengok kat map, kata nya cruise nie kena gi kat ferry terminal ...along the Bund ...jgn tertipu ...jauh nak jalan tau! aku nasib baik tanya kat hotel ...satff kat sana kata jgn stop kat the Bund, stop terus kat depan ticketing office ....aku ambik taxi from hotel direct ke sana lah ......senang sket ...

cari ajer direction to Shiliupu Ferry Terminal ....kalau jalan kaki kat the Bund, gi sampai the very end! opposite direction from Hero's Monument...taxi driver aku pun tak tau tempat nie ....aku yang kena tunjuk jalan kat dia ...boleh????

i have no idea apa papan tanda nie is all about ...but ianya banyak dekat2 kawasan ticketing office kat ferry terminal ...

sampai2 kat ferry terminal, tempat tu cam kosong ,.....it is a brand new complex ...tak banyak kawasan yang dah buka ...i asked the staffs kat situ, takde sapa cakap english .....aku menonong jer jalan, and so happen terjumpa counter tiket ....paid for mine, and was told the next ferry was in 10 minutes ....menunggu le kejap .....ramai org Hong Kong tunggu the same cruise as mine ...muka ngades semua LOL ....

ticketing counter

Harga tiket 100 yuan ...kira RM45 for a trip yang memakan masa 45 min to 1 hour

masa kat cruise nie aku geng ngan this guy from Hungary and another one from Italy ...yang lain semua Chinese nationals and ada geng masing2 ...kami bertiga ajer yang sorang2 ...so we stick together hehehehe

pakcik nie kerja kat town about 2 hours from Shanghai ....

most of the passengers opt to stay kat dalam boat ...kat bahagian bawah ...ada aircond tapi view kureng ....kat situ ada org serve drinks and foods jugak ...aku pi ke kabin atas ...and went to the area outside ...cuaca agak panas ..so, i stayed kat area yang teduh sket .....kalau nak kat kawasan VIP i.e. comfy sofa with aircond and served with drinks, kena add extra 50 yuan ...malas akak ....so i went on to the free area LOL ...

Views yang dilihat sama macam if you are walking round the Bund ...cuma banyak yang close up ....it was ok kalau you are rushing and nak tengok byk tempat along the river ...

yang nie ferry penumpang biasa ...bukan tour punya ferry ....

and old barge ....aku rasa ada famili tinggal kat dalam barge nie sebab nampak ada kanak2 kat dalam nya

cam boat zaman hippies hehehehe ...

gambar banyak lagi tapi malas nak tepek kat sini ...kang berjela2 panjang nya ......anyway, pas abis cruise nie, aku gi naik on-off bus ...ronda2 Shanghai on bus pulak .......siap pi Jiang An temple ....etc ...yang tu nanti aku sambung ....gambar belum resize lagi ....

tata titi tutu ....
