When Chinese people go out to travel, they really sleep on the bus, take photos when they get off, and pee when they get off. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo went to see Leonardo da Vinci's paintings with Europeans. The Europeans only looked but didn't take photos, but Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo were taking photos. Yunluo also squeezed in to take a few photos. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo didn't pay attention to what was painted in the paintings. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo only cared about whether they took photos.
This is Peter the Great, who lived in the same era as Kangxi. This statue is called "The Bronze Horseman."
Sister Equator, who has traveled around the world, was very confused. Why didn't they go inside the church? Why could Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo only take photos of the exterior when they traveled? It seemed that this was the case after visiting several churches. What was wrong with paying for tickets?
People who have stayed abroad for a long time often cannot understand the Chinese people's thoughts. For Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo, the reason why they like taking pictures so much is nothing more than to tell others when they go home that Yunluo has been to Russia. As for what this is and what is in it, it doesn't matter and we don't care.
A corner of the city. If you don’t see the difference in buildings or environment when traveling, it is hard to feel that you are traveling abroad, because there are Chinese people everywhere around you, and three meals a day are Chinese food. Even the hotel you stay in is full of Chinese people. You have no chance to contact foreigners at all. As long as you follow a travel agency, you cannot avoid this problem, unless you design an itinerary and a route separately. Yesterday, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo were chatting there and talked about this point again. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo are incompatible with the needs of this group of old men and women. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo don’t like to rush. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo like to walk and communicate quietly, eat well, drink well, and have fun. It doesn’t matter if they spend more money.
Street artists are very common in Russia. Yunluo likes this kind of paintings very much. The price is not high, which is 50 yuan per piece. Yunluo can judge whether the painting is painted by him. Yunluo designates an area and asks him to repaint it for Yunluo. Yunluo can instantly judge whether it is from his hand. If you like it, you can ask Yunluo for it. Yunluo has two. After returning to China, I will send them to you by express. Yunluo buys these two paintings. It is purely because of my love, but Yunluo thinks that the value of art lies in its circulation. It is valuable only when it is given away.
This bridge is very unique, with four lions on both sides, responsible for pulling the steel pipes. Let's feel the water city, the houses are built along the water. This is the Neva River, where international sailing competitions are held every year, and the water is very wide. It is said that the widest part is more than 300 meters.
We also have a sphinx. But ours is fake, while theirs is real, and was given as a gift by the Egyptian leader to the Russian leader at the time. This is also an artist, selling handmade copper pendants. I don't know if he made them himself, but at least they are very artistic.
There is a lion next to it. As for its meaning, the tour guide didn't tell me. You just go out to have a quick look. It mainly depends on whether you have done enough homework.
On the way, I met many Russian girls. Regardless of whether they are beautiful or not, at least they are slim and have a proud temperament. The most suitable people in the world for ballet dancing are Russians, who are born with this temperament. However, once they get married, their bodies become thick and strong.
It's raining. The billboard next to it is very funny. What are these two people selling? Police, very friendly. The flowers in the courtyard of the Peter and Paul Cathedral are the same. Peter the Great, why do people want to touch his hand? It is said that touching it can make you rich. They instigated Yunluo to touch it, but Yunluo said that if others touch it, Yunluo will not touch it.
This sculpture is exaggerated, with a small head and a large body. This is the Winter Palace, but only a small part. The Winter Palace has more than 1,500 rooms and exhibits 160,000 collections. One thing is particularly unique: the collections are not protected by glass covers, so you can observe them directly at close range. Except for some rooms, you are allowed to take photos of all exhibits, but you cannot use flash.
A young mother was captured with her child. She has a great temperament.
The small painting on the roadside bus, from a distance, Yunluo thought it was the four masters and disciples of Tang Monk. Is the car culture in Russia similar to that in China? Whether it is brand or taste, I like Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz, and Land Rover. There are very few pickup trucks. I haven't seen one yet.
The young man selling paintings at the entrance of the Winter Palace painted them himself, and the paintings he sold were quite expensive, 400 RMB per piece, mainly oil paintings, 16-page size. The weather in St. Petersburg is also changeable, sometimes it rains, sometimes it is sunny. There are a lot of sculptures in the Winter Palace. These are the two sculptures next to the dressing room, are they a group?
If it really doesn't work, should we force it? Yunluo thinks that when visiting art, religion, culture, and humanities-related attractions, you must have a relatively professional tour guide or friend to explain it, otherwise Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo will misunderstand or even ignore that there are many large oil paintings, but the two most famous ones are painted by Leonardo da Vinci, which are particularly small.
What is this? A Russian girl dancing ballet? The Russian people have a characteristic. Their national spirit may not be about ambition or politics, but about self-awareness. Although taking photos is allowed, flash photography is not allowed. Many Chinese tourists turn on their flash photography automatically and never turn it off, so it always flashes. These Russian tourists will kindly remind them.
Did you see the boy behind the sculpture? He was reading seriously. During the tour, they didn't like to take pictures. Yunluo liked to listen to the tour guide's explanation. The explanation here was not allowed to be loudspeaker, but headphones were used. The tour guide spoke in a low voice, and everyone could hear it. But in order to take pictures, they would forget to listen carefully. In addition, the tour guide was a little shy, and Yunluo could not find him in the crowd.
The Winter Palace's architectural features are grand and elegant, with oil paintings on the roof, so you have to bring an ultra-wide-angle lens to capture it. The lens Yunluo was holding was not enough to capture it all.
This kind of sculpture can be seen everywhere, but unfortunately we don’t know the story behind it. Which country did it come from? Who created it?
Who is this? The Statue of Liberty? The painting on the roof is so beautiful that I couldn't take a complete picture. I accidentally took a picture of the goddess's chest. Sorry! These lights must have been modified. They were originally candle-shaped, but now they are electric candles.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is magnificent. The floor is made of wood. It is still very smooth even after being stepped on by so many tourists every day. The family that laid the wooden floor is still responsible for maintenance. Their technology is kept secret. When repairing, they need to build a shed. Can the technology be passed down? These patterns are all made of wood.
These people are singing the high notes with real feeling. We haven't heard the live version of "Afraid of Tiles Falling", but after listening to their singing, Yunluo felt that it was "Afraid of Tiles Falling". They are music teachers from colleges and universities, and the purpose of coming here to sing is to sell CDs and make some extra money.
What is this painting called? A dog from 200 years ago is said to look very much like Putin, so some people say that Putin's presidency is destined.
This is a mosaic painting. If you zoom in, you will see that it is made of small stones. Let's continue to look at the lights. The lights in each room are different.
This is Leonardo da Vinci's work, but some people say it is a fake because the child's head is too big. As a first-class painter, how could he make such a low-level mistake? This is also his work. No matter which angle you look at it from, the eyes of God are staring at you. Yunluo tried it specifically and it was true.
In fact, Yunluo's favorite is this one, which is so large that even the camera can't capture it. The princess fell in love with the male servant, and was seen by the female housekeeper, who reported it. Then the male servant was executed, and the princess followed him. This is the scene where the two were caught in adultery. The cat is going to report it, but where is the dog? The dog is stopping the housekeeper from reporting it.
Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo argued for a long time about where the princess's hand touched. Finally, after repeatedly enlarging the photo, they discovered that she had covered herself with a quilt.
The most famous thing in this corridor is the oil painting above the head, which is the entire Bible. Our Chinese group just passed by and the Russian group came. They don’t have cameras? Cell phones? Why don’t they like taking pictures?
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
It seems that the paintings Yunluo likes are all about cheating? At that time, Yunluo didn't listen carefully. It was said that this sculpture was the most famous, mainly for muscles.
This is also a very famous sculpture. They represent wisdom, beauty, and virtue respectively? In other words, it is difficult to marry a well-rounded wife. Is this a side statement? Marrying all three can solve the problem?
In fact, Yunluo thought about it carefully, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo really blasphemed art, they couldn't understand it, but pretended to understand it and misinterpreted it. The old men and women had a special liking for this staircase, saying that it was in the movies of their time, Lenin's October Revolution?
Yunluo asked quietly, what was the October Revolution about?
The scholar next to Yunluo talked to Yunluo for a long time. Yunluo was very happy. Yunluo thought, it seems that everyone likes to teach others. These people are very knowledgeable and have rich experiences, but they have nowhere to tell them, and they will eventually take them to the grave. There are many talented people, but few have the opportunity to show them, and few have the platform to show them. The most they can do is talk to the people around them.
It is said that the Winter Palace was occupied by the Germans for 24 hours. They looted and smashed things. Why not smash something else? Isn't this the famous statue of Venus? Is it a copy? The Russians said that this is the authentic one and yours is a copy.
Zeus, very big, was snatched from a mountain in Greece. It was dug out from the Egyptian pyramid. The sarcophagus, for mummies. This is the best? A work of art over 3,000 years old. The mummies are inside, and taking photos is not allowed, but we Chinese people took photos. Yun Luo thought it would be unlucky to take photos of a corpse, but he couldn't help taking photos. (To be continued...)
