friends on the only bike isn't she. prefers to ride off the roads. motorcycle team is based. team is made up of more than thirty men and the training is just over here. most of the team are away at a competition but there are still plenty of people out for a quiet day. broken bones here and there and having fun. and the seven year old can make it around the track in one piece. once i figured out how to stop the thing from stalling at least. making my. never again. ok so on might not be a natural rebel without

a cause but there are some people in chief who do live rather unconventional lives . probably to say the recycling projects around still in their infancy but. around here. you know exactly what to do. there are certain. things might. develop a whole new take on heating the. engineer who just can't stop building. expensive bricks but there are plenty of alternatives just lying around. many bottles if you boil it up over the years you know mineral water. had difficulty getting rid of them so i thought i might as well use them for a good purpose to the first thing i'm. it was a bathroom

a nice and warm place. and as time went by and all the projects cropped talking. like this portal tower for instance. from the inside it maybe all these version of the london more. but up top it's a place for the kids to play and help with the gardening to. some yeah this is my swimming pool has a double purpose but you're into first your children swim in the water and then it's used to watering plants and then we'll feel this rolling through up again thrilling go on a way to will feel that's the. perfect. projects have made him a bit of a local celebrity he's always had plenty of fans to bring him supplies luxury luxury village news. and you could keep up with a news. story look. at that it took seventy eight people

to collect these bottles even a plant but everyone has brought. each building normally takes years to complete it isn't slowing down his property empire is next one is an old chapel and he's always looking for willing volunteers if you want to try and with a few quick tips from the most i was well on my way to an architectural triumph. but all this homework in the hot sun makes a man thirsty. that sadly i don't have to stay and help or how to finish this project but i can at least help contribute to the building materials. woodring on the job is encouraged. but just one of course because my next stop was going to take some serious concentration if i didn't want to end up with a black. eyed. from both. to martial artist is. this is ten c.

karate club the biggest and most successful in the city so it's. one of russia's most accomplished karate masters and he's able to assist his son. he's a black belt of course i was in. an intensive course. quickly in here. has been teaching since nine hundred ninety four and estimates he's trained thousand students. percent of the city's population. this is a man who says he wants to. blindfolded. me

a little. to take. i wanted to find somewhere in the city to relax and recuperate. from the chinese border and there's a thriving community. there are remedies there are almost no russians working in this chinese medicine. whole range of different treatments. he was particularly effective and.

this is supposed to be great for your circulation and. happens to be one of the most things ever experience. then you just relax and have to do the thing. it does get better the longer. but i'm still counting down the fifteen minutes i have to wait. for. christmas eve. to get. such a small person was capable of inflicting so much pain and i was any off way through

the treatment. right on happy with the second. but both gentle and refreshing the first because now my back row feels like he's had an encounter with a tyke. understandably i was a little nervous as i climbed on to my next plinth but my instructor soon had me completely relaxed. at least until i noticed him getting out to light. the very moment of moment. because i would never do anything with them. though. they may have been using me as a human flaw. but it's also supposed to be great for the secular. compared to those volatile volatiles this is a walk in the park. most kids sucked up into little. pieces

. with my body chewed up by centuries of chinese wisdom it was time to seek out some spiritual healing too and that meant getting out of the city. from the capital is one of the areas most beautiful nature spots. so this is the national park it's the biggest national park in the whole region and it's centered around a series of sacred monuments unfortunately most of them are high up on the hills which means if i'm going to see them. i've got a bit of a trek ahead of me. and of course i picked one of the hottest days of the year to do. this there's plenty of refreshment available.

the trucks are said to have been here for millennia and each visitor responds to do their bit to keep them clear. these piles of stones that you can see here are made by the pilgrims taking the trek up into the hills. it's traditional to remove obstacles from your part sorry that obviously helps you but also the others who are coming to follow in your footsteps and of course never head step bit of good karma. it can be easy to get lost here if you don't know where you're going but i was lucky enough to have my guide by year waiting for me and one of the park's most spectacular points. is a buddhist who's been showing people around here for more than ten years and he knows all about how nice most sacred places.

this is a holy place in the moments name means goddess and one of the goddesses is right here in the rock for much you can answer many questions and one can profit from the knowledge that just touched the rock with your hands and for it. by. touching my forehead to this rock who supposed to impart some wisdom to me. it's good to stay. but there are plenty of opportunities to draw on the god's knowledge here dozens of children journey here almost every day to make offerings all seek guidance in the parks various shrines and most of them and i headed for one particular destination. it's been a long hot track but it's finally almost to the end because just behind me is the

holiest sites for the buddhists in the whole of this park it's called the gates cathedral and people believe that it actually marks the entrance to paradise. who is left for me to do. is take a climb up the stairway to heaven. there's a cold drink from here then there. will be you lucky enough to have the spirit speaks to you or not there's definitely a special energy about our. incredible views and natural monoliths make this a memorable trip and i was looking forward to seeing more of the region's british treasures.

it's. probably. a. six. mission free critique a should be free. of charge is free. range three. free.

time free. download free broadcast video for your media project for free. is an amazing experience for both pilgrims alike but. can be found in the region. buddhism plays a major role in culture in fact the region is home to the two oldest but it's temples in the whole of the country but it's not just people spiritual well being that they're concerned with here they've also got a pretty serious academic program. is home to around two hundred monks and students and. teaching. course such discussions students learning the truth.

game is the seanie among. the impressive temple grounds. it was built back in the late eight hundred seventy s. but fell into disrepair during the soviet union and for the last twenty years you have gagne and his brothers have been helping to restore it to its former glory. but the monks haven't only been rebuilding the temple they've also been restoring their academy. an english teacher who's been working here since one nine hundred ninety four. children study here for five years and as well as languages and they focus heavily on tibetan sciences. want. to board the science five. and you can teach tippett and that's to. explain the types of paulse.

there are lots of different ones. what might your polls tell you what sort of thing i'll leave you will paul's kid nepal's different kinds some long road. trip. and all the others have to be at work a certain rate for fifteen years ok. so perhaps the most impatient lessons concentrate on buddhist or similar ideas and they have some extremely well travelled professors to class. the listening to all feel that bottom line he came from. his former thank you so that's good to meet this thing. for nine years for. falsely claiming want to study and nowadays he teaches you for

what languages he writes a bit. more intervention is not what it should be high decided it was time to get by in the monks by well but these deep intellectual close's they do make you think . they may study it for ideas but that doesn't mean that the philosophical question stop for the monks there apparently one of the favorites is simply how is it. who i am. about some of it probably would take a lot of time to figure out. but the people around here don't just like to exercise their minds there's plenty of healthy competition among the villages in this region especially when it comes to archery. but this is boman ship style and that's a little different. be all. a match go to targets on the ground and there are some fairly complicated rules. despite the fact that it looks like

a ridiculously accurate one he just gets one point because he's not from there. each participant stands either twenty or thirty metres back and gets up to thirty two shots if you knock the want out of the target zone it's two points any of us only one. it's a technique that takes years to master but when. i found myself a bit of a. robin hood problem with the let's let's give it a shot. made from birch bark and horn and they have kevlar strings so not much chance of those snapping in a hurry to play here is the most experienced on tour in the village so if i was going to get a lesson from anyone he's the man. in the chair. so . dress and release.

perfect form without an arrow. and see how that changes in about. now and then it was finally time to let loose ok so i need. a little white. the one point. where if i get one of these people. trust me. i decided to quit while i was ahead anyway compared to some of the other competitors i wasn't really dressed for the occasion. it was time to start exploring some more of the local wilderness nowadays none of this territory is off limits but i was heading to a place that just twenty years ago i would have been allowed anywhere near. very huge areas of understood step in the region but in the middle there's one place

that was closed from the outside world for more than twenty years during the soviet union. it is because of this but this is the largest uranium mine in the whole of russia and it fuels one foot of the country's nuclear power. i was about to head four hundred meters down into the. mine which produces eighty percent of the country's uranium. from this. right. they. say that. you seams are constantly being. monday trench down several levels. this. one of mine and.

this some pretty serious equipment. these drills are used to holes in the roll which is then blasted with explosives it's scooped up and dropped ready for collection. a piece of more uranium all that hard to believe that within this is this small piece of radioactive material. and surprisingly to use any heavy machinery. going to do it. it comes out if you like this. when you're dealing with one of the most potentially lethal substances on the

planet i think i want to be there for the self-pity. the only thing you're really likely to suffer from down here is dust inhalation but in the four thousand tons of coal they hold on to the pit every day there's six tons of concentrated highly radioactive uranium to sobering fools. so it's. probably. mine without any. time in the reason was coming to an end but i still have to souvenirs to pick up in the region. hundreds of years the have had a reputation for beautiful ornate weaponry like this antique silver knife but like with any old thing sometimes you need to give it a bit of a touch up and there's

a lady around here who really knows how to put the sparkle back into things. as an artist and silversmith and if you want something to look its best she's the woman you go and see. and i thought i'd check if i could get discounts by helping out with the cleaning. specific scrubbing. it's just. a bit of elbow grease this is. a chef leave us shining a way to be the envy of all of my next gloria wedding. ok i'm probably unlikely to ever attend the wedding but dream a did invite me to a family picnic the next day with a bit of a difference. they don't do things when they get together in these parts and i did today was being supplied by a law of sheep. so this is

the most important. of the ceremony where you have to do it with your head cut. you make an offering to the four corners of the. that is to ensure that the soul of the round. goes to a different place and is welcomed in by the spirit and by god i left the guys to do what needed to be done and got ready to start cooking. so this is considered to be the biggest delicacy so particular mongolian speciality the liver i'm not leak. it just because the meat which is still warm but it's no problem with freshness here then once we'd sealed the liver it was time for the second layer. so the meat now that it's been cooked is now wrapped in the

fat and then we go back and cook it again this is a very special treat. to all exceptionally primal men meet in florida and be doing it thousands of them. i felt truly only to have been able to share this experience with to remember and her relatives. an authentic piece of period family life the few westerners ever have a chance to be a part of. and it was a perfect ending to my time in a job i call school richer.
