Photographic tourism in Morocco

Three famous blue cities in the world, santorini, Chev Shawan and Jodhpur.

Among the few blue cities in the world, santorini, Chev Shawan and Jodhpur are regarded as the most beautiful blue cities in the world by the photography circle.

It was called Sheila in ancient times, and later it was changed to santorini in 1207 to commemorate Saint Irene.

"A long time ago, I always heard that there is an Aegean Sea in the world, and there is a pearl on the Aegean Sea." This pearl is used to describe santorini Island.

Attached is a map of santorini Island.

Punch 1: Take a stroll in Ferrara and look for the Blue Top Church.

The blue roof church in Ferrara is the most famous. It once appeared on the cover of National Geographic magazine, which is a postcard-like landmark in santorini.

PS: Search Mamatira Tavern on Google Maps, and follow the instructions when you go upstairs.

The second punch: watch the sunset fall into the Aegean sea

Yiya Town is the most beautiful place for sunset on santorini Island. Tourists flocked to enjoy the sunset falling into the Aegean Sea.

PS: Feila Town is the transportation hub of santorini Island, and it feels too commercialized. If you stay, I suggest you stay in Iado.

Punch 3: Taste grapes and wine

Santorini is a famous wine producing area, where there is an underground wine museum, which is 8 meters underground and 300 meters long, and the pattern is like a maze. The commentator will introduce the development history of grape cultivation and wine industry in Shengdao since17th century (1660-1950). As early as the early Bronze Age, santorini Island began to make wine, which has a history of more than 4,000 years. Assyrtico wine is the most famous.

The fourth trick: rent a boat in the Aegean Sea and sail out to sea.

It's too hard to walk on the volcano for a day, and I can't see any scenery naked;

The red beach is not beautiful enough, so I deliberately drove over the mountains.

Snorkeling in the sea can't see colorful tropical fish. ...

So you need to rent a yacht at this time!

Punching in five: the most special and helpless mode of transportation-riding a donkey

Because there are many roads, narrow and steep on the island, and there are many small bends on the island, the requirements for driving skills are higher, so the donkey has become a special transport carrier, but it is helpless for strong tourists to ride on the donkey's back and make the donkey overwhelmed. I sincerely hope that the donkeys on the island can live comfortably.

Shefsha Wan Wan is one of the most beautiful cities in Morocco and is known as the "blue elf". Its original name is Sean, which means "horn" in Spanish, because it looks like two horns of a goat from a distance.

All kinds of blue on the stairs

The blue of Chev Shawan is not a simple hue. Deep blue, lake blue, cobalt blue and light blue complement each other. The doorways, steps and walls of most houses in the town are painted bright blue.

Why is it blue here? Opinions vary and there will be various explanations.

Some people say that blue can cool down and prevent mosquitoes, because the weather is too hot; Some people say that this color comes from Lassel-Maquan spring ... The most effective one is related to the belief history of the city, because blue is the color of Jews.

Chev Shawan was discovered by Jews in 147 1 and lived here. /kloc-At the beginning of the 9th century, due to ethnic cleansing, new Jews fled to Sheva Shawan for refuge. In Judaism, blue represents the sky and heaven. Since the 1930 s, the house has been painted blue.

Shevchenko's cat

Moroccan people like cats, especially in Chev Bay. It is a veritable cat city, and cats can be seen everywhere. No one can answer how many cats there are ... no matter where the cats are, they all look like a painting with a sea blue wall.

The psychedelic taste of marijuana

Marijuana is legal here. You can see wild and artificial marijuana. If you meet someone who sells marijuana with you locally, just say no. There's a local marijuana trip. You can join the Hash Farm Walking Group, climb a whole mountain, visit the cannabis farm in a small village in the ravine, and visit the cannabis planting and processing.

The second largest city in Rajasthan, named after the small blue house in the city, is one of the four-color cities in India. National Geographic filmed a 50-minute documentary about this ancient city, which is also the shooting place of Wang's "Make a scene in Tianzhu". After leaving the sari factory, Thomson and Wukong went to a blue city and had a king's meal. This city is the main shooting place of "Make a scene in Tianzhu".

Aldous huxley, an English writer, once described it as follows: From the fortress of Meilangal Castle, people hear the same sounds as the gods heard on Mount Olympus-countless people talk to each god alone in the following world, and their voices are clear and independent, which will be recorded by the omniscient.

Meilangar Castle-Recorder of Smoke and War

Anywhere in the blue city, as long as you look up, you can see the huge castle standing on the cliff. This is Meilangar Castle. Dozens of meters high battlements are carved directly from the rocks below, and the whole building is integrated with the foundation and mountains, making people feel that the castle seems to grow directly from the rocks. The first half of the film, including the wedding fight and the battle in the sari factory, was shot in this castle.

The legend of blue

It's an experience that every tourist can't do when he comes to Meilangal Castle and climbs to its highest place overlooking Jodhpur City. The title of Jodhpur Blue City comes from this, which also confirms the legend that has been handed down for hundreds of years on the Southern Silk Road: a city is as blue as the sky.

The walls of all the houses in the old town of Jodhpur were painted thick blue. It is said that blue is the exclusive color of Brahman, the highest caste in India, just like the relationship between yellow and royal family in ancient China.

Hometown of gypsies

At present, there are still many gypsies performing arts in the streets under the city of Merangal Castle. When you visit, you might as well stop for a while and listen to the wonderful music they play and sing. If you can, you can leave some money, which is their only source of livelihood.
