motorcycle team is based we hold the trans. federation the 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 of risking. their broken bones here and there and having fun. and if a 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. take up society making my own. never again. ok so i 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 russia still in their

infancy but. around here. you know exactly what to do. there are certain but i think. things might. develop a whole new take on hitting the bottle. or retaught 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 beer and the like has difficulty getting rid of them so i thought i might as well use them for a good purpose is the first thing i made was a. nice and warm place. and as time went by all the projects talked. talent for instance. from the inside it may be all these version of the london

muslim. but it's a place for the kids to play and help with the gardening to. some yeah is my swimming pool has a double purpose but you know first of all children swim in the water and then it's used to watering plants and then we'll fill the swimming pool up again a great little swimming pool and a way to will feel that's. good for. 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 can keep up with a new special. look coming. it took seventy eight people to collect these bottles even a plaque but everyone has brought. each building normally takes years to complete but he isn't slowing down his property empire his next one is an old school and

he's always looking for willing volunteers if you want to try and with a few quick tips from the i was well on my way to an architectural triumph was that all this hard work in the hot sun makes a man thirsty. that sadly i don't have to stay and help or how to finish his projects but i can at least help contribute to the building materials he would ring me on the job as incurred. 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 block or two. i'd. shot but imo. from bottle. to martial artist does. this is ten c. karate club the biggest and most successful in the city. it's run by alexander one

of russia's most accomplished karate masters and. his son gainey he's only a first down black belt of course i was in for an easy ride. somehow. it's been corns a while since our throw the round house kick in anger and you have gagne my an intensive refresher course. but you've got to dust yourself off quickly in here or you're liable to get cracked over the head. has been teaching. thousand students. this is a man who says he wants to. take

. these there are almost no russian. different treatments. particularly effective. to be great for. ever experience.

christmas eve. new. who'd a thought such a small person was capable of inflicting so much pain and i was any health 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 of like. the very moment of moment. because of never dealt with them. good. 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 voyles this is a walk in the park. not sure whether 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 buddhist monuments unfortunately most of them all 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 flare. the 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's obviously helps you but also the others who are coming to follow in your footsteps and of course never head stop a 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 of the most sacred places. this is a holy place among its 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 gods knowledge here dozens of children's journey here almost every day to make offerings all seek guidance in the parks various shrines and most of them are headed for one particular destination. it's been a long hot track but it's finally almost at the end because just behind me is the holiest sites for the buddhists and the whole of this park it's called the gates cathedral and people believe that that's really marks the entrance to paradise.

take a climb up the stairway to heaven. as a cold drink go to the waiting for me then the. more you lucky enough to have the spirit speak to you or not there's definitely a special energy about our night. incredible views and natural monoliths make this a memorable trip and i was looking forward to seeing more of the region has produced treasures. of nature and discovery to be using. communicate with the wild and learn. test yourself and become free.

see what nature can give you a. chance to beasts in which brighten if you need sun moon from fans to freshen. stock totty dot com. elmo national park is an amazing experience for both hikers and pilgrims alike but buddhist center 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 wellbeing that they're concerned with here they've also got a pretty serious academic program to.

this done sometime police home to around two hundred monks and lay students and there's always a good argument to be. teaching. course of such discussions to students learning the philosophic truth of. your game is the sunni among care to give me a tour of 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. as an english teacher who's been working here since one nine hundred ninety four the students study here for five years and as well as language is an arts they focus heavily on tibetan sciences. one.

to board the science five for the sciences and you can teach to fit in that. plane the types of. there are lots of different ones. what might tell you what sort of thing. i'll leave you will paul's kid nepal's different kinds some long run this. trip. and all the others have to be at work a certain rate for fifteen years ok. so perhaps the most impatient listeners concentrate on buddhist or similar ideas and they have some extremely well travelled professors most of your class. the listeners that teach oil field most of that bottom line he can from.

his. former. kid i mean this thing. is for the. want to study and nowadays he teaches feels to follow what languages he writes and a bit. more intervention is not what it should be high decided it was time to get by him in the monk's farewell but these deep intellectual close's they do make you think. they may study it for five years but that doesn't mean that the philosophical question stop for the monks there apparently are one of the favorites is simply how is it. who i am. that's something that probably would take a lot of time. 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 bowman ship behrendt style and that's

a little different. image 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 meters 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 really want. it's a technique that takes years to master but when. i found myself as a bit of a. robin hood probably 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 my point here is the most experienced sure in the village so if i was going

to get a lesson from anyone he's the man. in the chair. so . that's a play 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. little white. loose the one point. trust me. i decided to quit while i was ahead anyway compared to some of the competitors i wasn't really dressed for the occasion. it was turned to stone to

exploring some more of the local wilderness nowadays none of this territory is off limits but i was having to replace the just twenty years ago i would have been allowed anywhere near. their huge areas of understood step in the region but in the middle as one place that was closed from the outside world for more than twenty years during the soviet union. and it's because of this but it is the largest uranium mine in the whole of russia and it fuels one 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. they. do seems

a. trench down several levels. this is pretty serious equipment. these drills are used to for holes in the rock which is then blasted with explosives and scooped up and dropped ready for collection. piece of. wood hard to believe but within this is this small piece of radioactive material. and surprisingly i wasn't allowed to use any heavy machinery but that didn't mean i wasn't going to do a little minding your. own doubting to avoid like this. when

you're dealing with one of the most potentially lethal substances on the planet. i want to be but it's. the only thing you'll really like me to suffer from down here is dust inhalation bus in the four thousand tons of coal they haul out of the pit every day there's six tons of concentrated highly radioactive uranium to sobering fault. so it's. probably be a radiant mind without any noticeable effect. of the above and these bits mere glowing in the dark. my 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 burri have had a reputation for beautiful ornate weaponry like this. 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 a discount by helping out with the cleaning. specifics. it's. a bit of. a shift leave us shining away there will be the envy of all of. us. 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. cheap. so this is the most important part of the ceremony where you have to do it with your head covered. you make an offering to the four corners of the earth. is to ensure that the soul of the. goes to a different place and is welcomed by the spirit and by god i left to do what needed to be done and got ready to start cooking. so this is considered to be the biggest so particular mongolian speciality liver

but. because the meat which is still warm but. with freshness here. we'd sealed the liver it was time for the second leg. so the meat now that it's been cooked has no wraps in the fat and then we go back and cook it again this is a very special treat. exceptionally primal men meet and fall and. i've been doing it for thousands of and. i felt truly omitted to have been able to share this experience with to remember and her relatives. an authentic piece of the real family life the few westerners ever have a chance to be a part of. and it was a perfect ten minutes of my time is up michael steele richard.
