不丹

鐵鍊橋和譚楚廟

鐵鍊橋位於帕羅國際機場到首都廷布途中，是15世紀西藏唐東嘉波尊者親手做的。唐東嘉波尊者有「鐵鍊製造者」之稱，他除了在佛教有崇高地位外，也是建築師、鐵匠、瑜珈大師。當地人都認為他有特異功能，可以在西藏和不丹各地掏手共建築了180條這樣的鐵鍊橋。時至今日，還有不少條橋還在使用中。

The iron chain bridge was opened for public to cross the Paro river until last year. It is now closed for safety reason.
以前鐵鍊橋是開放的，可以走過帕羅河對岸。直至去年開始，基於安全原因已經關閉。
The statue in the middle of the mural is Thangtong Gyalpo. He is holding a chain when you take a closer look.
壁畫中間的一座就是唐東嘉波尊者，他的右手拿著一條鐵鍊。
This is the original hand-made iron chain.
這是尊者手做的鐵鍊。
Now you may walk across this bridge which is next to the iron chain bridge to the other side of the river, reaching the Tamchog Llhakang.
現在可以走過旁邊這條吊橋到對岸的譚楚廟 (Tamchog Llhakang)。
It is a private temple called Tamchog Llhakang managed by the descendants of Thangtong Gyalpo. They are still living in the house adjacent to the temple.
對岸的「譚楚廟」一個私人廟宇，現在還是唐東嘉波尊者的後人管理的，他們就住在廟宇旁邊。
Photography is not allowed in the temple where the statues are. But the owner allowed us to take a look at the house they live in.
廟宇佛像部份都是不能拍照的，但主人讓我們參觀他們住宿的地方。
The main room of the house. It’s a big empty room with not much furnitures. It’s for both living and sleeping.
大廳沒有幾件傢俬，是客廳也是睡房。
The kitchen: traditional wood burning stove and basic utensils. The only modern equipment is the refrigerator.
廚房只有簡單的廚具，火爐是燒柴的，最先進的裝置是一座雪櫃。
The entrance of the main room is across from the kitchen. The room behind the colorful curtain is a locked private area used for storage according to the owner.
大廳的門口在廚房對面，左邊顏色鮮豔的布簾後是私人地方，主人說是儲物室。
The prayer wheel. Buddhism is the state religion of Bhutan. There are prayers wheels every where. Remember to go clockwise when you walk around and turn the wheels for blessing.
不丹是佛教國家，到處都有經輪。無論你會不會用手轉動經綸，請緊記要順時針走。
It is a good start of the Bhutan journey en route to Thimphu: the historic iron chain bridge, private temple, prayer flags and a clean Paro River. It’s nice every where.
這裡是去廷布途中的一個好景點：有古老鐵鍊橋、私人廟宇、經幡及帕羅河。風景優美，人傑地靈。
