          &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;media-8667267&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0.7em 0pt;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/2449146609.2.JPG&quot; alt=&quot;palawan,sabang,philipppines,asie,plage&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff0000; font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;&quot;&gt;Ces dernières années, j'ai eu la chance de visiter un certain nombre d'îles paradisiaques toutes plus belles les unes que les autres. Néanmoins, je dois admettre, qu'à ce jour, Palawan remporte de loin ma préférence. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff0000; font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;&quot;&gt;L'archipel se compose d'une île principale longue et étroite, bordée d'une multitude de petites îles et d'îlots souvent inhabités. Loin du tourisme de masse, Palawan cultive une beauté secrète.La nature y est généreuse et très sauvage. Assurément, Palawan plaira à ceux qui rêvent d'aventure et de dépaysement. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff0000; font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;&quot;&gt;Cependant, rien n'est vraiment facile aux Philippines et c'est d'autant plus vrai sur l'île de Palawan. Attendez-vous à endurer d'interminables trajets en jeepney sur des routes poussièreuses, vous ne pourrez pas non plus éviter les nausées lorsque vous naviguerez en mer sur de frêles esquifs. N'oublions pas les inombrables piqures de moustiques et les serpents qui, parfois, s'introduisent par erreur dans votre bungalow de bambou (ceci n'est pas une fiction). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff0000; font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;&quot;&gt;Voyager sur l'île n'est donc pas de tout repos. Cependant, tout effort est récompensé au quintuple. L'éblouissement est assuré, l'exotisme toujours au rendez-vous.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff0000; font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;&quot;&gt;Tout voyage sur l'île débute par un passage obligé par sa très modeste capitale &lt;strong&gt;Puerto Princesa&lt;/strong&gt;. Comme toutes les villes du pays, Puerto Princesa ne brille pas par sa beauté. En fait, il ne s'agit là que de la première étape d'un beau et long voyage à travers l'archipel. Inutile de s'y attarder surtout que trois heures de route seront nécessaires pour rejoindre Sabang, qui se trouve à 50kms au nord de la capitale.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff0000; font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sabang beach et le &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff0000; font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;pp-place-title&quot;&gt;St. Paul Subterranean River National Park &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff0000; font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;media-8667431&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0.7em 0pt;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/2596900576.2.JPG&quot; alt=&quot;asie,palawan,philippines,bacuit,archipel&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff0000; font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;&quot;&gt;Comme souvent, tout commence par une longue et belle plage de sable fin. Bien que l'île soit prisée par les touristes depuis de nombreuses années déjà, on ne peut pas vraiment parler de ruées vers Sabang. Quelques guesthouses très basiques composées de bungalows en bambou et un resort de bon standing. C'est à peu près tout (du moins c'était le cas en janvier 2008). La nuit, rien d'autre à faire que d'aller dormir après l'extinction des feux. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff0000; font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;&quot;&gt;En réalité, on ne se rend pas à Sabang pour profiter de la plage, mais pour y découvrir le parc national St Paul, classé au patrimoine mondial par l'UNESCO depuis le 4 décembre 1999. Le parc naturel abrite notamment 252 espèces d'oiseaux, une trentaine de mammifères dont les célèbres macaques, mais aussi des reptiles comme les pythons et les varans. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff0000; font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;&quot;&gt;Plusieurs sentiers balisés permettent de rejoindre le parc St-Paul à partir de la plage. Différents niveaux de difficulté sont proposés. A vous de choisir. Certains préfèrent directement prendre le bateau pour rejoindre directement la rivière sous-terraine et ses roches de calcaire qui se trouve au milieu du parc. Grave erreur, car la traversée de la jungle est un must.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;media-8667460&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0.7em 0pt;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/466387522.JPG&quot; alt=&quot;asie,palawan,philippines,bacuit,archipel,sabang,st paul,subterranean,river,national,park&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff0000; font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;pp-place-title&quot;&gt;St. Paul Subterranean River National Park : &quot;la rivière souterraine&quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff0000; font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small; color: #ff0000;&quot;&gt;Sans aucun doute le clou de la visite. Longue de 8.2 kms, la St Paul Subterranean River fut longtemps considérée comme la plus longue rivière souterraine au monde. Ce n'est qu'en 2007 qu'elle fut détrônée lors de la découverte d'une plus vaste rivère dans la province du Yucatan au Mexique. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;media-8667713&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0.7em 0pt;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/2019658163.JPG&quot; alt=&quot;asie,palawan,philippines,bacuit,archipel,sabang,st paul,subterranean,river,national,park&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small; color: #ff0000;&quot;&gt;La grotte est composée de milliers de stalacmites et stalactites de calcaire.

              <summary>    Baguio       B&amp;acirc;tie en altitude au tout d&amp;eacute;but du XX&amp;egrave;me...</summary>
      <content type="html" xml:base="http://leenetbenoit.skynetblogs.be/">
          &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;Baguio&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;B&amp;acirc;tie en altitude au tout d&amp;eacute;but du XX&amp;egrave;me si&amp;egrave;cle par les troupes am&amp;eacute;ricaines, Baguio doit son succ&amp;egrave;s &amp;agrave; la fraicheur de son climat, qui attire chaque ann&amp;eacute;e bon nombre de philippins durant les p&amp;eacute;riodes de canicule. Dans la Cordill&amp;egrave;re, Baguio est sans conteste le centre n&amp;eacute;vralgique et le point de d&amp;eacute;part incontournable pour partir &amp;agrave; la d&amp;eacute;couverte des c&amp;eacute;l&amp;eacute;brissimes rizi&amp;egrave;res en terrasses dispers&amp;eacute;es tout autour des petites villes de Bontoc et Banaue. &lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;La ville accueille &amp;eacute;galement plus de 250,000 &amp;eacute;tudiants, doublant ainsi, chaque ann&amp;eacute;e, le nombre total de ses habitants. Ancien quartier g&amp;eacute;n&amp;eacute;ral de l&amp;rsquo;arm&amp;eacute;e japonaise durant la seconde guerre mondiale, elle subit de lourds bombardements de la part des alli&amp;eacute;s et fut plus tardivement, en 1990, ravag&amp;eacute;e par un terrible tremblement de terre. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn003_original_448_336_pjpeg_2657873_d428ff7b28bf9efac923884b427cd2cc.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Baguio&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Baguio, gare d'autobus&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn003_original_448_336_pjpeg_2657873_ef2a5f6c91abcb66e46b98cd56f3c28f.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Baguio (4)&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;tuning&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn003_original_448_336_pjpeg_2657873_c9abdff337959d6625cae8409eb85357.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Baguio (11)&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;Aucune raison pour nous de nous &amp;eacute;terniser &amp;agrave; Baguio, mais nous n&amp;rsquo;avions pas trouv&amp;eacute; de bus partant de Manille et se rendant directement &amp;agrave; Banaue. Baguio n&amp;rsquo;est donc qu&amp;rsquo;une &amp;eacute;tape obligatoire avant d&amp;rsquo;arriver &amp;agrave; notre destination finale. Mes impressions de la ville sont tr&amp;egrave;s contrast&amp;eacute;es. Il n&amp;rsquo;y a strictement rien &amp;agrave; voir, rien &amp;agrave; faire. La circulation est tellement chaotique que l&amp;rsquo;air est tout &amp;agrave; fait irrespirable. La pollution en altitude se fait fortement ressentir, bonjour les maux de t&amp;ecirc;te. Baguio est aussi tr&amp;egrave;s sale, tr&amp;egrave;s pauvre et totalement d&amp;eacute;nu&amp;eacute;e de charme. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;Paradoxalement, je garderai longtemps en m&amp;eacute;moire cette ville, qui a r&amp;eacute;ussi &amp;agrave; me surprendre. En effet, j&amp;rsquo;avais comme l&amp;rsquo;impression de ne plus savoir o&amp;ugrave; je me trouvais. Etais-je toujours bien en Asie ou avais-je subitement chang&amp;eacute; de continent ? A Baguio, la population locale est tr&amp;egrave;s typ&amp;eacute;e, de petite taille et porte des bonnets multicolores similaires &amp;agrave; ceux&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;des habitants de la Cordill&amp;egrave;re des Andes. Bien que je ne me sois jamais rendu en Am&amp;eacute;rique latine, ce que je d&amp;eacute;couvrais autour de moi me faisait particuli&amp;egrave;rement penser au P&amp;eacute;rou. Les bidonvilles situ&amp;eacute;s en banlieue de Baguio que nous avons travers&amp;eacute; le lendemain en bus n&amp;rsquo;ont fait que renforcer cette impression. Agr&amp;eacute;able sensation d&amp;rsquo;&amp;ecirc;tre au bout du monde et de d&amp;eacute;couvrir une population tout aussi atypique que famili&amp;egrave;re. C&amp;rsquo;est sans doute &amp;ccedil;a aussi le charme des Philippines. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn003_original_448_336_pjpeg_2657873_81060ae9903dbff7a27b1ec7c703c3f5.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Baguio (13)&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;boucherie&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn003_original_448_336_pjpeg_2657873_7b9fc62c0dbdc9b5f48cc6d57284db5b.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Baguio (16)&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;Comme nous n&amp;rsquo;avions pas trouv&amp;eacute; de bus direct reliant Baguio &amp;agrave; Banaue, nous avons d&amp;eacute;cid&amp;eacute; de nous en rapprocher en nous rendant &amp;agrave; Bontoc. Vers 06h30 du matin, nous avons pris un bus local (voir photo) et avons endur&amp;eacute; un calvaire de presque huit heures en pleine montagne. Le bus s&amp;rsquo;arr&amp;ecirc;tait pratiquement tous les 300 m&amp;egrave;tres afin d&amp;rsquo;embarquer ou de laisser descendre des passagers. C&amp;rsquo;est fou comme les Philippins arrivent &amp;agrave; caser autant d&amp;rsquo;objets insolites dans un bus. Ce genre d&amp;rsquo;exp&amp;eacute;rience restera grav&amp;eacute;e dans ma m&amp;eacute;moire, mais j&amp;rsquo;avoue aussi avoir&amp;nbsp;&amp;eacute;t&amp;eacute;&amp;nbsp;plus que&amp;nbsp;soulag&amp;eacute; lorsque cette derni&amp;egrave;re s'est termin&amp;eacute;e. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;Nous arrivons finalement &amp;agrave; Bontoc vers 16h00 et recherchons tout de suite une jeepney pour nous rendre &amp;agrave; Banaue. Sur place, on nous explique qu&amp;rsquo;il est trop tard pour s&amp;rsquo;y rendre et que nous devrons passer la nuit sur place. A&amp;iuml;e, pas envie de rester bloqu&amp;eacute; dans ce bled &amp;agrave; plus de deux heures de route de Banaue (bien qu&amp;rsquo;&amp;agrave; vol d&amp;rsquo;oiseau la distance qui s&amp;eacute;pare Bontoc de Banaue&amp;nbsp;soit assez limit&amp;eacute;e). Coup de chance, nous tombons sur un groupe de&amp;nbsp;5 Allemands qui n&amp;eacute;gocient avec un chauffeur de jeepney pour se rendre &amp;agrave; Banaue.

Situ&amp;eacute;e sur l&amp;rsquo;&amp;icirc;le de Luzon, Manille est &amp;eacute;galement la plus grande ville du pays ainsi que&amp;nbsp;son poumon &amp;eacute;conomique. Selon Wikipedia, La population totale de Manille d&amp;eacute;passerait les 10 millions d&amp;rsquo;habitants et nombre d&amp;rsquo;entre eux vivent dans des bidonvilles en grande banlieue appel&amp;eacute;e Metro Manila. &lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;Fond&amp;eacute;e en 1571 par les espagnols, elle fut &amp;agrave; sa cr&amp;eacute;ation divis&amp;eacute;e en deux parties distinctes &amp;agrave; savoir Intramuros, ville fortifi&amp;eacute;e et peupl&amp;eacute;e de colons europ&amp;eacute;ens et l&amp;rsquo;autre Binondo, peupl&amp;eacute;e d&amp;rsquo;indig&amp;egrave;nes.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;En 1898 les Espagnols abandonn&amp;egrave;rent le pays au profit des Am&amp;eacute;ricains, qui colonis&amp;egrave;rent &amp;agrave; leur tour les Philippines jusqu&amp;rsquo;&amp;agrave; l&amp;rsquo;ind&amp;eacute;pendance du pays le 04 juillet 1946. Durant la seconde guerre mondiale, La ville fut ravag&amp;eacute;e par les combats. Pr&amp;egrave;s de 100,000 habitants auraient &amp;eacute;t&amp;eacute; massacr&amp;eacute;s lorsque les alli&amp;eacute;s affront&amp;egrave;rent les troupes japonaises, qui refusaient d&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;vacuer le p&amp;eacute;rim&amp;egrave;tre. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;Mes impressions&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;Contrairement au pays, Manille n&amp;rsquo;a absolument rien de transcendant. Mon voyage aux Philippines a naturellement d&amp;eacute;but&amp;eacute; par la capitale et mon exp&amp;eacute;rience fut loin d&amp;rsquo;&amp;ecirc;tre exceptionnelle. Selon moi, Manille n&amp;rsquo;a pas grand-chose &amp;agrave; offrir hormis le quartier espagnol d&amp;rsquo;Intramuros, le joli coucher de soleil que l&amp;rsquo;on peut apercevoir le long de la baie et une vie nocturne assez tr&amp;eacute;pidante. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn001_original_448_336_pjpeg__1b1b83cd3e89beccdd14e291a73624f0.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Manilles_Marina (7)&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;sunset&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;La ville manque cruellement de charme, le b&amp;eacute;ton est omnipr&amp;eacute;sent et les buildings, centre commerciaux, h&amp;ocirc;tels bien que modernes sont assez &amp;lsquo;cheap&amp;rsquo;, bref du bling bling pas cher et de mauvais go&amp;ucirc;t. En plus de cela, je ne trouve pas que la ville soit particuli&amp;egrave;rement clean et bonjour le bordel par endroit (au sens propre comme au figur&amp;eacute;). Si comme moi vous avez eu l&amp;rsquo;occasion de vous rendre &amp;agrave; Bangkok &lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;avant de d&amp;eacute;couvrir Manille, je ne doute pas un seul instant de la d&amp;eacute;ception que vous pourrez ressentir en visitant Manille. Je ne peux pas dire que je d&amp;eacute;teste cette ville, mais je n&amp;rsquo;ai trouv&amp;eacute;, &amp;agrave; ce jour, aucune raison valable d&amp;rsquo;y retourner un jour.&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Intramuros&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn009_original_448_336_pjpeg__2c34bbe9874744f3157fa0af9a5ae305.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Intramuros (4)&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn009_original_336_448_pjpeg__e860918f07a46aebdb685ac4d30f5d33.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Intramuros (2)&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn009_original_448_336_pjpeg__eef1ecd2e9dcc739034d3456e45be196.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Intramuros_St Augustin&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;San Augustin&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn009_original_448_336_pjpeg__0d7bf69acd1e6b6fc7f385e21d20d251.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Intramuros (26)&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;fresques&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn009_original_448_336_pjpeg__155c2c382e9b845795f1b77bbeea1281.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Intramuros (25a)&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;timidit&amp;eacute; l&amp;eacute;gendaire des philippins&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;hr /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Manille moderne&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn007_original_448_336_pjpeg_2657873_695c757168e26be2100907b186f61d48.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Manilles_Makati&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;Makati, le quartier d'affaires&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn009_original_448_336_pjpeg_2657873_683715b2f2ebe83ddd90cc6f819eddf1.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Manilles (4)&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn009_original_448_336_pjpeg_2657873_d13c2e30bb68ce822e4161897e948cbe.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Manilles_Marina (5)&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn001_original_336_448_pjpeg__5a86af4feb5d9d818f14549715c07184.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Manilles_sculptures (2)&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Ce pays se nomme les Philippines, vaste archipel de plus de 7000 &amp;icirc;les lov&amp;eacute; aux confins de l&amp;rsquo;Asie. Je m&amp;rsquo;y suis rendu en janvier 2008 et bien que je ne respecte aucunement l&amp;rsquo;ordre chronologique de mes voyages, je suis heureux de vous pr&amp;eacute;senter sur mon blog ce pays si singulier.&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn006_original_257_257_gif_2657873_5ec348dbb9ee65abb360f13ebe748477.gif&quot; alt=&quot;PHILIPPINES&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.easyvoyage.com/base/imgs/cartes/fr/PHILIPPINES.gif&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;1&quot;&gt;http://www.easyvoyage.com/base/imgs/cartes/fr/PHILIPPINES.gif&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;D&amp;eacute;couvert par Magellan au XVI&amp;egrave;me si&amp;egrave;cle, ce territoire du bout du monde fut nomm&amp;eacute; Philippines en l&amp;rsquo;honneur de l&amp;rsquo;infant d&amp;rsquo;Espagne, le futur Philippe II d&amp;rsquo;Espagne. Hormis le Timor Oriental, c&amp;rsquo;est le seul pays d&amp;rsquo;Asie &amp;agrave; large dominance catholique. Influenc&amp;eacute;es par l&amp;rsquo;Espagne et les Etats-Unis, les Philippines offrent un savant m&amp;eacute;lange latino-asiatique de langue anglaise. C&amp;rsquo;est un peu le pays du paradoxe, de l&amp;rsquo;aventure et de la beaut&amp;eacute; &amp;agrave; l&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;tat brut. Plus accessible culturellement parlant que la Tha&amp;iuml;lande ou le Vietnam, les Philippines vous surprendront &amp;agrave; coup s&amp;ucirc;r de par son m&amp;eacute;tissage unique et flamboyant.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn006_original_336_448_pjpeg_2657873_f75ed1d3e8677f67cc516e065745dc2d.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Intramuros (11)&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;Intramuros, Manille&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;Les atouts du pays sont l&amp;eacute;gions, mais si je dois en retenir quelques uns, je dirais premi&amp;egrave;rement que les Philippines (du moins la partie que j&amp;rsquo;ai eu l&amp;rsquo;occasion de visiter) est de toute beaut&amp;eacute; et encore largement intacte, bien loin du tourisme de masse. Vous trouverez toujours une &amp;icirc;le, une crique, une plage pour vous seul. Secundo la population est extr&amp;ecirc;mement chaleureuse et d&amp;eacute;borde de joie de vivre. A tel point que je dis souvent que de tous les peuples d&amp;rsquo;Asie, ce sont les Philippins les plus accueillants. De plus, il est tr&amp;egrave;s facile de se faire comprendre, car les habitants m&amp;eacute;trisent parfaitement la langue anglaise. Leur accent am&amp;eacute;ricain tr&amp;egrave;s prononc&amp;eacute; ne vous &amp;eacute;chappera pas non plus et vous amusera j&amp;rsquo;en suis certain.&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn006_original_448_336_pjpeg_2657873_06c2e501f55d3c05ec0f5289b2ac3303.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;El Nido_Beach (23)&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;1&quot;&gt;El Nido, Palawan&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pourquoi les Philippines ne connaissent-elles pas le m&amp;ecirc;me succ&amp;egrave;s touristique que la Tha&amp;iuml;lande ?&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;Les Philippines sont parfois difficiles &amp;agrave; apprivoiser et sa topographie extr&amp;ecirc;mement capricieuse en est sans doute la raison principale. Pour voyager aux Philippines, il faut avoir du temps, car les moyens de transport sont souvent tr&amp;egrave;s improvis&amp;eacute;s et peu fiables. Parcourir un pays tr&amp;egrave;s montagneux et r&amp;eacute;parti sur plus de 7000 &amp;icirc;les n&amp;rsquo;est pas de tout repos. Secundo, son histoire mouvement&amp;eacute;e et son ex dictateur Ferdinand Marcos n&amp;rsquo;ont aid&amp;eacute; &amp;agrave; rendre cette destination tr&amp;egrave;s populaire, tertio des groupuscules islamistes au sud du pays, dont notamment le malheureusement c&amp;eacute;l&amp;egrave;bre Abu Sayyaf, terrorisent la r&amp;eacute;gion et les pays limitrophes. Dommage. Pour terminer, l&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;loignement g&amp;eacute;ographique du pays par rapport &amp;agrave; l&amp;rsquo;Europe ne joue pas non plus en sa faveur.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferdinand_Marcos&quot;&gt;http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferdinand_Marcos&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abu_Sayyaf&quot;&gt;http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abu_Sayyaf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;Il ne tient qu&amp;rsquo;&amp;agrave; vous d&amp;rsquo;inverser la tendance et recommande cette destination aux plus aventureux d&amp;rsquo;entre-vous. Si vous aimez les randonn&amp;eacute;es en jungle, les treks en montagne, les baignades dans de sublimes lagons ainsi que la plong&amp;eacute;e sous-marine, alors les Philippines sont faites pour vous.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Malgr&amp;eacute; une certaine prosp&amp;eacute;rit&amp;eacute;, la Tha&amp;iuml;lande connait de grandes disparit&amp;eacute;s &amp;eacute;conomiques et sociales &amp;agrave; travers le pays. Vous constaterez bien vite que tout le monde n&amp;rsquo;est pas log&amp;eacute; &amp;agrave; la m&amp;ecirc;me enseigne. Autre fait inqui&amp;eacute;tant, son instabilit&amp;eacute; politique et le peu de cr&amp;eacute;dibilit&amp;eacute; que cela implique ram&amp;egrave;ne inexorablement le pays au niveau des autres pays &amp;eacute;mergents de la r&amp;eacute;gion. Dommage.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Fait unique, ce pays a &amp;eacute;galement l&amp;rsquo;immense privil&amp;egrave;ge de ne jamais avoir connu de v&amp;eacute;ritable p&amp;eacute;riode de colonisation occidentale malgr&amp;eacute; la pr&amp;eacute;sence incontournable des grandes nations europ&amp;eacute;ennes au-del&amp;agrave; de ses fronti&amp;egrave;res. En effet, les Britanniques s&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;taient install&amp;eacute;s au Sud en Malaisie et &amp;agrave; Singapour ainsi qu&amp;rsquo;&amp;agrave; l&amp;rsquo;ouest au Myanmar (Birmanie), les Fran&amp;ccedil;ais, quant &amp;agrave; eux, s&amp;rsquo;implant&amp;egrave;rent &amp;agrave; l&amp;rsquo;Est en ex-Indochine (Laos, Vietnam, Cambodge). La Tha&amp;iuml;lande, elle, est rest&amp;eacute;e ind&amp;eacute;pendante et a longtemps pu cultiver sa propre identit&amp;eacute; &amp;agrave; l&amp;rsquo;abri des influences occidentales. Malheureusement, elle a rattrap&amp;eacute; son retard avec beaucoup de z&amp;egrave;le. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Un peu &amp;agrave; l&amp;rsquo;image de la France, la Tha&amp;iuml;lande a l&amp;rsquo;immense majorit&amp;eacute; d&amp;rsquo;offrir aux touristes une destination aux attractions exceptionnelles et vari&amp;eacute;es. Des randonn&amp;eacute;es en montagne aux d&amp;eacute;couvertes des minorit&amp;eacute;s ethniques au nord du pays, des plages plus belles les unes que les autres au sud, une capitale &amp;eacute;blouissante, des vestiges architecturaux de toute beaut&amp;eacute; &amp;agrave; Sukhothai et &amp;agrave; Ayutthaya et j&amp;rsquo;en passe. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn009_original_448_336_pjpeg_2657873_50f1ad3999118056d1705d41bce22a12.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;2007_01_Sukhothai (6)m&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;1&quot;&gt;Sukhothai&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;La Tha&amp;iuml;lande a tellement &amp;agrave; offrir qu&amp;rsquo;elle s&amp;rsquo;est tr&amp;egrave;s logiquement taill&amp;eacute;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;e la part du lion en mati&amp;egrave;re de tourisme en Asie du Sud-est. Ajoutez &amp;agrave; cela, une population ouverte et accueillante ainsi qu&amp;rsquo;un rapport qualit&amp;eacute;-prix tout &amp;agrave; fait exceptionnel, vous obtenez une destination de premier choix pris&amp;eacute;e par les touristes du monde entier.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Pourtant, si vous aimez d&amp;eacute;couvrir de vieilles pierres Sukhothai ne fait pas le poids face &amp;agrave; Angkor (Cambodge), si vous adorez les treks en montagne, privil&amp;eacute;giez le Nord du Laos ou le Nord de Luzon aux Philippines, si vous &amp;ecirc;tes accrocs aux plages, bien que celles de Tha&amp;iuml;lande soient g&amp;eacute;n&amp;eacute;ralement &amp;eacute;blouissantes de beaut&amp;eacute;, celles de Palawan aux Philippines remportent de loin ma pr&amp;eacute;f&amp;eacute;rence. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Pour le touriste qui chercherait un peu d&amp;rsquo;authenticit&amp;eacute; et de calme, le Siam n&amp;rsquo;est franchement pas la destination ad&amp;eacute;quate. Il est vrai que le pays est surtout connu comme la r&amp;eacute;f&amp;eacute;rence en mati&amp;egrave;re de baln&amp;eacute;aire en Asie du Sud-est. En Anglais, un terme&amp;nbsp;r&amp;eacute;sume bien le sentiment que j&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;prouve &amp;agrave; l&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;gard de nombre de destinations du pays, &amp;agrave; savoir : &amp;laquo;&amp;nbsp; &lt;i style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-style: normal;&quot;&gt;Touristy&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;raquo;, qui signifie exag&amp;eacute;r&amp;eacute;ment touristique. La Tha&amp;iuml;lande victime de son succ&amp;egrave;s&amp;nbsp;? C&amp;rsquo;est en tout cas mon opinion&amp;nbsp;! Ko Samui, Phuket, mais surtout Pattaya sont pour moi les parfaites illustrations de ce qui me d&amp;eacute;range le plus dans cette commercialisation &amp;agrave; outrance. Je ne veux ni para&amp;icirc;tre pr&amp;eacute;tentieux ni vouloir sous-estimer le charme de ces lieux (pour Pattaya, je reste inflexible) mais trop c&amp;rsquo;est trop. Charters quotidiens, Bierstube, Irish Pub, resorts sur resorts, go-go bars &amp;agrave; foison, trop peu pour moi.&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Paradoxalement, c&amp;rsquo;est pourtant le pays asiatique que je connais le mieux. Je m&amp;rsquo;y suis rendu une premi&amp;egrave;re fois en janvier 2007 et ensuite &amp;agrave; plusieurs reprises en 2009. Contrairement aux Philippines et au Laos, il est tr&amp;egrave;s facile de voyager en Tha&amp;iuml;lande. Nul besoin d&amp;rsquo;un visa pour un s&amp;eacute;jour ne d&amp;eacute;passant pas 30 jours (si vous arrivez en bus, le d&amp;eacute;lai est ramen&amp;eacute; &amp;agrave; 15), l&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;tat des routes est souvent irr&amp;eacute;prochable et les moyens de transport sont plus que convenables. &lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Ce que je reproche surtout &amp;agrave; la Tha&amp;iuml;lande c&amp;rsquo;est qu&amp;rsquo;elle n&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;veille pas v&amp;eacute;ritablement de passion chez moi. J&amp;rsquo;aime m&amp;rsquo;y rendre, car on s&amp;rsquo;y amuse beaucoup, les gens y sont agr&amp;eacute;ables, mais son c&amp;ocirc;t&amp;eacute; trop parfait me laisse quelque peu de marbre. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Pour terminer, j&amp;rsquo;avoue quand-m&amp;ecirc;me avoir &amp;eacute;t&amp;eacute; peu complaisant &amp;agrave; l&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;gard de la Tha&amp;iuml;lande, mais soyez certain d&amp;rsquo;une chose, si ce pays est visit&amp;eacute; chaque ann&amp;eacute;e par des millions de touristes du monde entier, c&amp;rsquo;est qu&amp;rsquo;il le m&amp;eacute;rite amplement&amp;nbsp;! &lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Si je devais associer une couleur au pays, ce serait le &lt;strong&gt;jaune&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn009_original_448_336_pjpeg_2657873_abfb5e5a32d8015a5fb4de053208411d.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;2007_01_Chiang Mai (30)&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;1&quot;&gt;Rama IX, roi de Tha&amp;iuml;lande.Son portrait est OMNIPRESENT !!!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;hr /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;II.Le Laos&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Autant vous le dire tout de suite, Le Laos est sans aucun doute le pays qui m&amp;rsquo;a le plus s&amp;eacute;duit. Paradoxalement, lors de l&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;laboration du circuit les mois qui ont pr&amp;eacute;c&amp;eacute;d&amp;eacute;&amp;nbsp;le d&amp;eacute;part, le Laos me semblait &amp;ecirc;tre la destination la moins int&amp;eacute;ressante de toutes celles que&amp;nbsp;j'allais d&amp;eacute;couvrir. J'ai m&amp;ecirc;me plusieurs fois h&amp;eacute;sit&amp;eacute; &amp;agrave; le traverser. Il est vrai que ce &amp;lsquo;petit&amp;rsquo; pays manque cruellement de reconnaissance internationale. Le Laos, de par son histoire r&amp;eacute;cente, est rest&amp;eacute; tr&amp;egrave;s discret. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Bien que tardive, son ouverture au tourisme va sans doute compl&amp;egrave;tement bouleverser la donne. J&amp;rsquo;esp&amp;egrave;re juste qu&amp;rsquo;il ne succombera pas aux sir&amp;egrave;nes du tourisme de masse comme sa grande s&amp;oelig;ur, la Tha&amp;iuml;lande, qui est sans doute l&amp;rsquo;exemple &amp;agrave; ne pas suivre. Ce qui me conforte dans mon id&amp;eacute;e, c&amp;rsquo;est que tous les voyageurs qui s&amp;rsquo;y sont rendus et que&amp;nbsp;j'ai rencontr&amp;eacute;s&amp;nbsp;durant le&amp;nbsp;p&amp;eacute;riple asiatique sont absolument unanimes &amp;agrave; son sujet.

Le bouche &amp;agrave; oreille fonctionne bien, l&amp;rsquo;engouement pour le pays augmente sensiblement chaque ann&amp;eacute;e et je souhaite vivement au Laos de profiter de la manne financi&amp;egrave;re providentielle que le tourisme &amp;agrave; grande &amp;eacute;chelle lui procurera, mais attention aux abus&amp;nbsp;! &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Je regrette sinc&amp;egrave;rement de ne pas lui avoir accord&amp;eacute; suffisamment de temps, d&amp;rsquo;int&amp;eacute;r&amp;ecirc;t et surtout de cr&amp;eacute;dit.

Selon moi, l&amp;rsquo;expression &amp;laquo;&amp;nbsp;Indochine&amp;nbsp;&amp;raquo; prend ici tout son sens&amp;nbsp;;&amp;nbsp;les khmers traduisent bien le m&amp;eacute;tissage indo/chinois, avec une l&amp;eacute;g&amp;egrave;re pr&amp;eacute;pond&amp;eacute;rance de l&amp;rsquo;indien sur le chinois. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Avec les temples d&amp;rsquo;Angkor, le Cambodge dispose d&amp;rsquo;un patrimoine architectural et culturel hors du commun.

Le reste du pays est donc bien souvent n&amp;eacute;glig&amp;eacute;. Il est vrai que le Cambodge hormis les temples angkoriens, ne dispose pas d&amp;rsquo;autres v&amp;eacute;ritables joyaux capables de rivaliser avec les vestiges de la civilisation khm&amp;egrave;re. Si vous aimez les plages somptueuses, celles des environs de Sihanoukville sont certes tr&amp;egrave;s agr&amp;eacute;ables, mais loin d&amp;rsquo;&amp;ecirc;tre exceptionnelles, vous trouverez bien mieux en Tha&amp;iuml;lande. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn003_original_448_299_pjpeg__92e7d6f4fea15a1d45b53e681a3c93c0.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC03318&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;1&quot;&gt;sihanoukville&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Si vous recherchez une grande ville pour l&amp;rsquo;animation et les sorties, Phnom Penh n&amp;rsquo;est assur&amp;eacute;ment pas la r&amp;eacute;f&amp;eacute;rence en la mati&amp;egrave;re, si vous aimez les treks en montagne, passez votre chemin, le pays est presque aussi plat que notre bonne vieille Belgique.

Vers 10h00,&amp;nbsp;Je vais voir Julien pour prendre des nouvelles de son &amp;eacute;tat de sant&amp;eacute;. Arriv&amp;eacute; devant sa porte, je n&amp;rsquo;entends aucun bruit. Pr&amp;eacute;sumant qu&amp;rsquo;il se repose encore, je n&amp;rsquo;ose interrompre son sommeil et&amp;nbsp;retourne dans ma chambre.&amp;nbsp;Ensuite, petit-d&amp;eacute;jeuner dans &amp;lsquo;la rue des bouchers&amp;rsquo; et&amp;nbsp;&amp;eacute;laboration du programme de la journ&amp;eacute;e. Je visiterai deux nouveaux temples&amp;nbsp;: &lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;Banteay Kdei&lt;/b&gt; et &lt;strong&gt;Preah Khan&lt;/strong&gt; et retournerai&amp;nbsp;&amp;agrave; Ta Prohm, car je ne suis pas satisfait des photos prises la veille (d&amp;ucirc; &amp;agrave; la faible luminosit&amp;eacute;), mais surtout parce que je br&amp;ucirc;le d&amp;rsquo;impatience de le revoir une seconde fois. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Apr&amp;egrave;s le repas,&amp;nbsp;je retourne voir le tuk-tuk driver de l&amp;rsquo;avant-veille et n&amp;eacute;gocie&amp;nbsp;le circuit pour 9$. D&amp;eacute;part pr&amp;eacute;vu vers 13h30. Comme il&amp;nbsp;me reste pratiquement deux heures avant de partir,&amp;nbsp;je retourne au cybercaf&amp;eacute; pour la mise &amp;agrave; jour du blog. Apr&amp;egrave;s une heure de travail, j&amp;rsquo;irai griller une cigarette dans la rue et rencontrerai par hasard Julien qui revient du centre-ville o&amp;ugrave; il est all&amp;eacute; manger un bout. Son &amp;eacute;tat de sant&amp;eacute; ne s'est pas du tout am&amp;eacute;lior&amp;eacute;. Je lui explique que&amp;nbsp;je repartirai visiter d&amp;rsquo;autres temples cet apr&amp;egrave;s-midi.

Son nom Khmer signifie &amp;lsquo;le temple des cellules&amp;rsquo;. Bien que ce temple ne soit pas le plus grandiose des temples angkoriens,&amp;nbsp;j'&amp;eacute;prouve n&amp;eacute;anmoins un certain plaisir &amp;agrave; le d&amp;eacute;couvrir.

Contrairement aux temples montagnes tel que Bayon (day 63),&amp;nbsp;Ce temple monastique n&amp;rsquo;est pas construit en hauteur, mais tout en longueur. Sa visite&amp;nbsp;n&amp;eacute;cessite un certain temps. Malheureusement, la chaleur qui r&amp;egrave;gne sur le site est vraiment accablante. Difficile de vous la d&amp;eacute;crire, mais je vous assure que&amp;nbsp;je transpire abondamment. C&amp;rsquo;est bien simple, pas un seul cm2 de ma chemise est exempt de transpiration. Quelle horreur. Je serai pratiquement le dernier &amp;agrave; quitter le temple avant la fermeture du site.

Les r&amp;eacute;dacteurs du guide du routard ne tarissent pas d&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;loges &amp;agrave; l&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;gard du temple angkorien de &lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;Ta Prohm&lt;/b&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;notamment pour le romantisme et la majest&amp;eacute; qu&amp;rsquo;il leur inspire. Je partage totalement leur point de vue: ce temple de la fin du XII&amp;egrave;me si&amp;egrave;cle est totalement livr&amp;eacute; &amp;agrave; la jungle tout comme l&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;taient tous les autres temples d&amp;rsquo;Angkor avant d&amp;rsquo;&amp;ecirc;tre d&amp;eacute;couverts et restaur&amp;eacute;s. L&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;cole fran&amp;ccedil;aise d&amp;rsquo;Extr&amp;ecirc;me-orient a d&amp;eacute;lib&amp;eacute;r&amp;eacute;ment choisi de laisser Ta Prohm en l&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;tat afin que le visiteur puisse s&amp;rsquo;imaginer ce que d&amp;eacute;couvrirent les premiers&amp;nbsp;arch&amp;eacute;ologues &amp;agrave;

Ce soir, nous allons rejoindre Laurent, un compatriote et ancien copain de&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;classe, qui est actuellement &amp;agrave; Siem Reap pour le boulot. Rendez-vous fix&amp;eacute; &amp;agrave; l&amp;rsquo;orientaliste &amp;agrave; 20h30. Comme le lieu de rencontre est assez excentr&amp;eacute;, nous pr&amp;eacute;f&amp;eacute;rons prendre un tuk-tuk pour nous y rendre. L&amp;rsquo;ennui, c&amp;rsquo;est que nous n&amp;rsquo;en trouvons pas&amp;nbsp;! Habituellement si prompts &amp;agrave; vous solliciter quand vous n&amp;rsquo;avez pas besoin de leurs services, les chauffeurs se font exceptionnellement discrets. L&amp;rsquo;explication est pourtant toute simple. Le nouvel an Khmer d&amp;eacute;bute ce soir m&amp;ecirc;me, ce qui implique que&amp;nbsp;les tuk-tuk drivers c&amp;eacute;l&amp;egrave;brent l&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;v&amp;egrave;nement en compagnie de leur famille. Apr&amp;egrave;s avoir parcouru presque un kilom&amp;egrave;tre, nous en trouvons finalement un, mais son &amp;eacute;tat d&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;bri&amp;eacute;t&amp;eacute; fort avanc&amp;eacute; nous incite &amp;agrave; continuer nos recherches ailleurs. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: red; font-size: 10pt; mso-ansi-language: FR-BE;&quot;&gt;Il est d&amp;eacute;j&amp;agrave; 20h45, nous arrivons enfin au lieu de rendez-vous, en retard comme d&amp;rsquo;habitude. Durant le repas, nous parlerons de voyages (Laurent travaille dans le tourisme), d&amp;rsquo;exp&amp;eacute;riences, de coups de c&amp;oelig;ur. Bref, nous sommes tous sur la m&amp;ecirc;me longueur d&amp;rsquo;onde. Au menu&amp;nbsp;: canard &amp;agrave; l&amp;rsquo;orange pour moi et un steak pour Julien. M&amp;ecirc;me si le cadre de l&amp;rsquo;orientaliste est bien sympathique, nous avons quelques difficult&amp;eacute;s &amp;agrave; dig&amp;eacute;rer l&amp;rsquo;addition. 36$ pour deux m&amp;eacute;diocres canards et deux bi&amp;egrave;res Angkor&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: Wingdings; color: red; font-size: 10pt; mso-ansi-language: FR-BE; mso-ascii-font-family: Verdana; mso-hansi-font-family: Verdana; mso-char-type: symbol; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-char-type: symbol; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;&quot;&gt;L&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: red; font-size: 10pt; mso-ansi-language: FR-BE;&quot;&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: red; font-size: 10pt; mso-ansi-language: FR-BE;&quot;&gt;Nous allons ensuite boire un verre tous ensemble dans la rue des 'pub' de Siem Reap. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: red; font-size: 10pt; mso-ansi-language: FR-BE;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: red; font-size: 10pt; mso-ansi-language: FR-BE;&quot;&gt;Nous ne nous &amp;eacute;terniserons cependant pas, car Julien ne se sent pas bien du tout. il est m&amp;ecirc;me &amp;agrave; deux doigts&amp;nbsp;de perdre connaissance.

Nous partons manger du tofu, des fresh spring-rolls (rouleaux de printemps non frits), des tomates farcies et un amok de poulet. Comme nous avons donn&amp;eacute; rendez-vous &amp;agrave; notre tuk-tuk driver &amp;agrave; 13h30, nous devons nous d&amp;eacute;p&amp;ecirc;cher de finir notre repas. 13h40, nous arrivons en vue du conducteur de rickshaw, qui s&amp;rsquo;inqui&amp;eacute;tait d&amp;eacute;j&amp;agrave; de ne pas nous voir arriver. Nous partons ensuite au nord de Siem Reap pour rejoindre le Banteay Srei, l&amp;rsquo;un des temples les plus mythiques d&amp;rsquo;Angkor. Une trentaine de kilom&amp;egrave;tres nous s&amp;eacute;parent de ce dernier. Pour l&amp;rsquo;atteindre, nous traversons &lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;la campagne Khm&amp;egrave;re&lt;/b&gt;, qui malgr&amp;eacute; un relief aussi accident&amp;eacute; que celui de notre plat pays, est de toute beaut&amp;eacute;. Nous prenons un r&amp;eacute;el plaisir &amp;agrave; d&amp;eacute;couvrir ces nombreux petits villages o&amp;ugrave; la terre est ocre et la v&amp;eacute;g&amp;eacute;tation g&amp;eacute;n&amp;eacute;reusement verte.

Nous pr&amp;eacute;sentons nos &amp;lsquo;pass&amp;rsquo; aux gardes et d&amp;eacute;butons tout de suite apr&amp;egrave;s la visite du &lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;Banteay Srei&lt;/b&gt;, qui signifierait en khmer la citadelle des femmes. Selon notre guide, Banteay Srei diff&amp;egrave;re quelque peu des autres temples pour l&amp;rsquo;exquise beaut&amp;eacute; et l&amp;rsquo;excellent &amp;eacute;tat de conservation de ses bas-reliefs. Le mat&amp;eacute;riau utilis&amp;eacute; pour la construction est le gr&amp;egrave;s rose, ce qui n&amp;rsquo;enl&amp;egrave;ve rien au charme du temple, qui fut d&amp;eacute;couvert en 1914. Bien que datant de la seconde moiti&amp;eacute; du X&amp;egrave;me si&amp;egrave;cle, sa c&amp;eacute;l&amp;eacute;brit&amp;eacute; remonte seulement &amp;agrave; 1924 ann&amp;eacute;e durant laquelle Andr&amp;eacute; Malraux y d&amp;eacute;roba quatre bas-reliefs d&amp;rsquo;Apsara (divinit&amp;eacute;s c&amp;eacute;lestes) et fut assign&amp;eacute; &amp;agrave; r&amp;eacute;sidence pour ce d&amp;eacute;lit. Cet &amp;eacute;pisode aurait fait couler beaucoup d&amp;rsquo;encre &amp;agrave; l&amp;rsquo;&amp;eacute;poque. Nous parcourons le site durant 40 minutes et m&amp;ecirc;me si nous ne pouvons nier l&amp;rsquo;int&amp;eacute;r&amp;ecirc;t du temple et le raffinement de ses bas-reliefs, nous sommes n&amp;eacute;anmoins un peu d&amp;eacute;&amp;ccedil;us par sa petite taille.

La ville est fi&amp;egrave;re de cette image, mais ses d&amp;eacute;tracteurs lui trouveront un flagrant manque d&amp;rsquo;originalit&amp;eacute;, voir de cr&amp;eacute;ativit&amp;eacute;. Cependant, toute r&amp;egrave;gle a son exception, m&amp;ecirc;me ici o&amp;ugrave; les r&amp;egrave;gles et interdictions sont l&amp;eacute;gions.

Invers&amp;eacute;ment, celui de Cholon &amp;agrave; Saigon fut de loin le plus d&amp;eacute;cevant. Impossible pour&amp;nbsp;moi d&amp;rsquo;y rester plus de vingt minutes sans ressentir l&amp;rsquo;envie de m&amp;rsquo;en aller pour de bon. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;ecmsonormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Comme tout bon quartier chinois qui se respecte, le bruit, la pollution, la cohue et le commerce effr&amp;eacute;n&amp;eacute; sont des &amp;eacute;l&amp;eacute;ments indispensables. Celui de Bangkok ne fait pas exception &amp;agrave; la r&amp;egrave;gle. Il faut avoir les nerfs solides pour arpenter ces ruelles o&amp;ugrave; il est si facile de se perdre. N&amp;eacute;gocier avec les chinois n&amp;rsquo;est pas une mince affaire non plus&amp;nbsp;; &amp;agrave; tel point que l&amp;rsquo;on pourrait s&amp;rsquo;imaginer que leurs enfants apprennent les rudiments du commerce avant m&amp;ecirc;me d&amp;rsquo;apprendre &amp;agrave; marcher. Pour terminer, il faut tout de m&amp;ecirc;me avouer qu'en Europe,&amp;nbsp;nous ne sommes pas habitu&amp;eacute;s &amp;agrave; voir autant de monde au m2. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-bidi-font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;Leur mani&amp;egrave;re de travailler, de se d&amp;eacute;placer semble anarchique certes, mais leur courage, leur d&amp;eacute;termination et leur habilit&amp;eacute; inspirent v&amp;eacute;ritablement le respect. Se balader dans ce quartier est une exp&amp;eacute;rience &amp;agrave; la fois &amp;eacute;reintante, mais surtout tr&amp;egrave;s enrichissante. Un must. Pour s'y rendre prenez le taxi-boat sur les rives du fleuve Chao Phraya et arr&amp;eacute;tez-vous au &lt;em&gt;Tha Ratchawong pier&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn010_original_210_314_pjpeg__36f0c6a1801289a0264cd2d38db199b8.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04420&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn010_original_210_314_pjpeg__96461a55747fab2b62e17f3bb2386344.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04470&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn010_original_210_314_pjpeg__a00f7dea1b28b4f91c3929976d718f29.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04431&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn010_original_210_314_pjpeg__c06132dbdce6a5a91b5519d101be98f7.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04436&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn010_original_448_299_pjpeg_2657873_ea03027e382f10183d187b09e7d4eda0.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04466&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn008_original_324_448_pjpeg_2657873_7272bedeb50f9546ce559ba579a22854.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04459blog&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;My&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;riam&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn010_original_640_428_pjpeg_2657873_fd4975c350c0cf7407638e0842ce64bd.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04447&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn010_original_448_299_pjpeg_2657873_20f9a55df9caa8ba5fbf7b908d52d12e.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04451&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn010_original_448_299_pjpeg_2657873_d50a7ff015aeb5b8dd8dfd83a1d57845.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04455&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

          &lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Un peu &amp;agrave; l&amp;rsquo;image de Venise, Bruges ou Amsterdam, Bangkok est elle aussi une cit&amp;eacute; lacustre. Difficile de s&amp;rsquo;en rendre compte au premier coup d&amp;rsquo;oeil, car la majorit&amp;eacute; des canaux ont &amp;eacute;t&amp;eacute; combl&amp;eacute;s au fil des ann&amp;eacute;es afin de permettre le d&amp;eacute;veloppement urbanistique de la ville. Seul le quartier populaire de &lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;Thonburi&lt;/b&gt; dispose encore d&amp;rsquo;un nombre important de &lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;khlongs&lt;/b&gt; qui quadrillent le vieux centre historique de Bangkok. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;L&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;ov&amp;eacute;e s&lt;/font&gt;ur la rive occidentale du fleuve &lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;Chao Phraya&lt;/b&gt;, Thonburi fut jadis la capitale du Siam avant que le roi Rama I ne d&amp;eacute;cide de transf&amp;eacute;rer le si&amp;egrave;ge du pouvoir sur la rive orientale en 1782. Bangkok put alors se d&amp;eacute;velopper et devenir la m&amp;eacute;gapole frivole que nous connaissons aujourd&amp;rsquo;hui. Thonburi, quant &amp;agrave; elle, demeura plus populaire et ne connu pas l&amp;rsquo;essor spectaculaire de sa rivale. Pourtant, pr&amp;egrave;s de deux si&amp;egrave;cles plus tard, Thonburi fusionna avec Bangkok.&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-spacerun: yes;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-ansi-language: FR-BE; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;&quot;&gt;Le quartier de Thonburi offre donc un visage plus authentique que sa grande s&amp;oelig;ur Bangkok. Myriam (une amie de Julien qui passe actuellement ses vacances en Tha&amp;iuml;lande) et moi d&amp;eacute;cidons de d&amp;eacute;couvrir cette autre&amp;nbsp;facette de la capitale Tha&amp;iuml;landaise. Pour se faire, nous prenons le BTS &amp;agrave; Tong Lo en direction du terminus de Saphan Taksin. Arriv&amp;eacute;s &amp;agrave; la station BTS de Saphan Taksin, nous marchons jusqu&amp;rsquo;&amp;agrave; l&amp;rsquo;embarcad&amp;egrave;re qui se trouve &amp;agrave; quelques centaines de m&amp;egrave;tres de l&amp;agrave;. Sur place, nous rencontrons un couple de N&amp;eacute;erlandais avec qui nous partagerons le bateau et le prix de la ballade, qui durera 1 petite heure. 250 Baht p.p.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-ansi-language: FR-BE; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn009_original_448_299_pjpeg_2657873_caad99bbdc3dda0eeb7326c4e635e4e4.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04406&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn009_original_448_299_pjpeg_2657873_bd907c34ca4315960ada81beaed62be9.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04296&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn006_original_336_420_pjpeg_2657873_d9ee4b89ab0946b8870d1991b28f243d.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04286blog&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Au lieu de remonter le fleuve Chao Phraya vers le Nord comme nous en avons l&amp;rsquo;habitude, notre bateau descendra vers le Sud avant de bifurquer sur la droite pour rentrer dans cette partie de la ville o&amp;ugrave; le temps semble s&amp;rsquo;&amp;ecirc;tre arr&amp;ecirc;t&amp;eacute;. En effet, nous sommes &amp;agrave; mille lieux de la fr&amp;eacute;n&amp;eacute;sie des quartiers modernes d&amp;rsquo;Asok, de Sukhumvit ou de Si Lom. Les khlongs de Thonburi nous donnent l&amp;rsquo;image d&amp;rsquo;un gros bourg r&amp;eacute;sidentiel d&amp;eacute;laiss&amp;eacute;, peu engageant, mais pas d&amp;eacute;nu&amp;eacute; de charme pour autant. Beaucoup de jeunes Tha&amp;iuml;s s&amp;rsquo;y baignent faisant fi de la pollution de l&amp;rsquo;eau et du regard m&amp;eacute;dus&amp;eacute; des touristes, qui arpentent, tout comme nous, les canaux de Thonburi. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn009_original_640_428_pjpeg_2657873_b67c39436e5a4ec67e7ec9c4f5556980.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04304&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn010_original_299_448_pjpeg_2657873_15496cd5201015a0d5f9e9c01f1d1363.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04313&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn010_original_448_299_pjpeg_2657873_ef593bea68fe88aff2bb40235e41d21e.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04357&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Khlongs&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn010_original_448_299_pjpeg_2657873_4497fda721b78601d135e74508a0499c.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04359&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn010_original_448_299_pjpeg_2657873_a5623e4820bae83c3f786b1b5db45b06.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04362&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn006_original_448_295_pjpeg__7fe57f357c90dce12dd56d86d9c96654.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04368&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.skynetblogs.be/media/40631/dyn010_original_448_299_pjpeg_2657873_172810565bed7985d5f043a55c39c83c.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;DSC04365&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#ff0000&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Thonburi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; color: red; font-size: 10pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-ansi-language: FR-BE; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;&quot;&gt;40 minutes plus tard, nous d&amp;eacute;bouchons &amp;agrave; nouveau sur le fleuve Chao Phraya o&amp;ugrave; la vue est bien diff&amp;eacute;rente de celle des Khlongs.
