点评:My wife and I visited Mohenjo Daro a week ago. We were met at Sukkur airport by Irshad Solangi who is the local tour operator for the site. He picked us up in a car and drove us to our hotel, the RT Grace, and helped us check in. The next day he picked us up and drove us the two hours to the site.
We then spent about three hours touring the site. While it looks like most guides just take visitors to only one of the five sites at Mohenjo Daro, Irshad took us to all five. It’s a bit of a walk but luckily for us it was overcast and cool.
I would definitely recommend a guide as otherwise many of the nuances of the site would have been lost to us. Irshad was very detailed and very knowledgeable, pointing out all the salient features.
We finished at the museum and then with a lunch at the site that we paid for. We were then driven to the airport, where Irshad waited until he was sure that we had checked in. I should point out that we were required to travel, when in our car, with an armed escort according to Pakistan government rules. The guards were very friendly (my wife posed for a photo with a machine gun toting ranger) and unobtrusive. The guards were coordinated by our guide.
All in all, it’s an out of the way place, but how often do you get to see a civilization that dates from 3500 BCE? I highly recommend a visit and I also highly recommend Irshad Solangi as a guide.
翻译:一周前,我和妻子参观了摩亨佐达罗。我们在苏库尔机场遇到了当地的旅行社 Irshad Solangi。他开车接我们,把我们送到了酒店 RT Grace,并帮我们办理了入住手续。第二天,他又来接我们,开了两个小时的车,把我们送到了遗址。
然后我们花了大约三个小时参观了遗址。虽然大多数导游似乎只带游客参观了摩亨佐达罗的五个遗址中的一个,但 Irshad 却带我们参观了所有五个遗址。虽然路途有点远,但幸运的是,天气阴沉凉爽。
我绝对会推荐导游,否则我们会错过遗址的许多细微差别。Irshad 非常细心,知识渊博,指出了所有突出的特点。
我们参观了博物馆,然后在遗址吃了我们付费的午餐。然后我们被送到机场,Irshad 在那里等着,直到他确定我们已经办理了登机手续。我应该指出,根据巴基斯坦政府的规定,我们坐车时必须有武装护送。警卫非常友好(我的妻子与一名手持机关枪的护林员合影)而且不引人注目。我们的导游负责协调警卫。
总而言之,这是一个偏僻的地方,但你多久能看到一个可以追溯到公元前 3500 年的文明?我强烈推荐参观,我也强烈推荐 Irshad Solangi 作为导游。
