Samui'de Tuk-Tuk'a Bindim - Pi\u015fmanl\u0131k m\u0131, E\u011flence mi?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Koh Samui'nin bro\u015f\u00fcrlerde veya Instagram hikayelerinde anlat\u0131lamayacak kadar \u00f6zel bir b\u00fcy\u00fcs\u00fc var. Chaweng Plaj\u0131'na vuran sabah dalgalar\u0131n\u0131n sessizli\u011finde, hindistan cevizi bah\u00e7elerinin \u00fczerindeki g\u00fcne\u015f \u0131\u015f\u0131\u011f\u0131n\u0131n par\u0131lt\u0131s\u0131nda ve a\u00e7\u0131k hava mutfaklar\u0131ndan yay\u0131lan pad thai kokusunda. Ve belki de en ak\u0131lda kal\u0131c\u0131 olan\u0131, adan\u0131n dolamba\u00e7l\u0131 yollar\u0131nda homurdanan bir tuk-tukun tak\u0131rt\u0131s\u0131 ve u\u011fultusunda; pencereler a\u00e7\u0131k, kalp ard\u0131na kadar a\u00e7\u0131k.<\/p>\n

Bu y\u00fczden Samui'yi tuk-tuk ile ke\u015ffetmeye karar verdi\u011fimde \u015funu merak ettim: Bu tuhaf bir macera m\u0131yd\u0131 yoksa pi\u015fmanl\u0131k re\u00e7etesi miydi?<\/p>\n

Gelin birlikte \u00f6\u011frenelim.<\/p>\n

\u0130lk \u0130zlenimler: Tuk-Tuk Tango<\/h3>\n

Bir tuk-tuk'u duymadan \u00f6nce fark edersiniz; parlak boyal\u0131, inan\u0131lmaz derecede kompakt ve her zaman biraz k\u00fcstah. Samui'de tuk-tuk'lar Bangkok'taki kadar her yerde bulunmasa da, Chaweng ve Lamai gibi daha kalabal\u0131k b\u00f6lgelerde bulabilirsiniz. Pazarl\u0131k rit\u00fcelin bir par\u00e7as\u0131d\u0131r; \u015fof\u00f6rler g\u00f6z k\u0131rparak teklif verir, siz de g\u00fcl\u00fcmseyerek kar\u015f\u0131 teklifte bulunursunuz ve ortada bir yerde anla\u015fma sa\u011flan\u0131r.<\/p>\n

Araca bindi\u011fimde, bir nostalji ve heyecan dalgas\u0131 hissettim. Sa\u00e7lar\u0131n\u0131zda r\u00fczgarla yollarda h\u0131zla ilerlemek, do\u011fan\u0131n ve di\u011fer yolcular\u0131n merak\u0131na maruz kalmak hem \u00f6zg\u00fcrle\u015ftirici hem de al\u00e7akg\u00f6n\u00fcll\u00fcle\u015ftirici bir \u015fey.<\/p>\n

U\u00e7:<\/strong> Tuk-tuk yolculuklar\u0131 k\u0131sa mesafeler i\u00e7in idealdir; \u00f6rne\u011fin plaj gezileri veya gece pazarlar\u0131 gibi. Daha uzun yolculuklar i\u00e7inse, bir songthaew (payla\u015f\u0131ml\u0131 kamyon taksi) kullanmay\u0131 d\u00fc\u015f\u00fcnebilir veya kendinizi cesur hissediyorsan\u0131z bir scooter kiralayabilirsiniz.<\/p>\n

Hareket Halindeki Manzara: Chaweng'den Bal\u0131k\u00e7\u0131 K\u00f6y\u00fcne<\/h3>\n

\u015eof\u00f6r\u00fcm Somchai, bizi Chaweng Plaj\u0131'n\u0131n karma\u015fas\u0131ndan (Google Haritalar'da "Chaweng Plaj\u0131" yazarak aray\u0131n) uzakla\u015ft\u0131r\u0131p Bal\u0131k\u00e7\u0131 K\u00f6y\u00fc'n\u00fcn eski d\u00fcnya cazibesine do\u011fru y\u00f6nlendirdi. D\u00fcnya, ara s\u0131ra kar\u015f\u0131m\u0131za \u00e7\u0131kan hindistan cevizi sat\u0131c\u0131lar\u0131yla bezenmi\u015f begonviller ve pazar tezgahlar\u0131n\u0131n bulan\u0131kl\u0131\u011f\u0131 i\u00e7inde ak\u0131p gidiyordu. Tuk-tuk'un a\u00e7\u0131k yanlar\u0131 her kilometreyi canl\u0131 bir kartpostala d\u00f6n\u00fc\u015ft\u00fcr\u00fcyordu: havadaki tuz, turistlerin kahkahalar\u0131, yol kenar\u0131ndaki bir kul\u00fcbeden gelen \u0131zgara deniz \u00fcr\u00fcnlerinin kokusu.<\/p>\n

Bophut'taki Bal\u0131k\u00e7\u0131 K\u00f6y\u00fc mutlaka g\u00f6r\u00fclmeli; Google Haritalar'da "Bal\u0131k\u00e7\u0131 K\u00f6y\u00fc" yazarak aray\u0131n.

Tap\u0131naklar, Gelgitler ve Tuk-Tuk Hikayeleri<\/h3>\n

Wat Phra Yai'yi (B\u00fcy\u00fck Buda Tap\u0131na\u011f\u0131) ziyaret etmeden Samui gezisi tamamlanm\u0131\u015f say\u0131lmaz. Google Haritalar'da Wat Phra Yai yazarak arayabilirsiniz. Tap\u0131na\u011f\u0131n alt\u0131n heykeli adan\u0131n kuzey ucunda par\u0131ld\u0131yor ve tuk-tuktan bak\u0131ld\u0131\u011f\u0131nda sil\u00fceti palmiye a\u011fa\u00e7lar\u0131n\u0131n \u00fczerinde bir vaat gibi y\u00fckseliyor. \u00d6\u011fleden sonraya denk getirirseniz, \u0131\u015f\u0131k yumu\u015fak ve kalabal\u0131k az oluyor.<\/p>\n

Tuk-tuk'umuz giri\u015fe do\u011fru v\u0131z\u0131ldayarak yakla\u015ft\u0131 ve ben \u00e7\u0131plak ayakla serin mermer basamaklardan yukar\u0131 \u00e7\u0131kt\u0131m. T\u00fcts\u00fc kokusu havada u\u00e7u\u015fuyordu. Safran rengi c\u00fcbbeli rahipler dualar aras\u0131nda sessizce hareket ediyordu. M\u00fcmk\u00fcnse burada bir dakika durun; deniz ku\u015flar\u0131n\u0131n k\u00f6rfezin \u00fczerinde daireler \u00e7izmesini izleyin ve sessizli\u011fin omuzlar\u0131n\u0131za \u00e7\u00f6kmesine izin verin.<\/p>\n

U\u00e7:<\/strong> Tap\u0131naklar\u0131 ziyaret ederken m\u00fctevaz\u0131 giyinin (omuzlar\u0131n\u0131z\u0131 ve dizlerinizi \u00f6rt\u00fcn) ve ba\u011f\u0131\u015f i\u00e7in yan\u0131n\u0131zda bozuk para getirin.<\/p>\n

Plaj Gezintisi ve At\u0131\u015ft\u0131rmal\u0131k Duraklar\u0131<\/h3>\n

Tuk-tuk'lar, ani duraklamalar\u0131 kolayla\u015ft\u0131r\u0131yor. Silver Beach'in hilalini g\u00f6rd\u00fc\u011f\u00fcmde (Google Haritalar'da "Silver Beach Samui" yazarak aray\u0131n), Somchai'nin omzuna dokundum ve hindistancevizi g\u00f6lgeli bir yola sapt\u0131k. Kum s\u0131cakt\u0131, su cam kadar berrakt\u0131. Yak\u0131nlarda bir sokak sat\u0131c\u0131s\u0131, \u00f6\u011fle g\u00fcne\u015fine kar\u015f\u0131 m\u00fckemmel bir panzehir olan, kremal\u0131 ve tatl\u0131 hindistancevizi dondurmas\u0131 servis ediyordu.<\/p>\n

Lamai Plaj\u0131 (Google Haritalar'da "Lamai Plaj\u0131" yazarak aray\u0131n) tuk-tuk dostu bir ba\u015fka ka\u00e7\u0131\u015f noktas\u0131. Burada ortam rahat, dalgalar biraz daha vah\u015fi, masaj kul\u00fcbeleri ise seyahat yorgunlu\u011fu \u00e7eken omuzlara rahatlama vaat ediyor.<\/p>\n

Karar: Pi\u015fmanl\u0131k m\u0131, E\u011flence mi?<\/h3>\n

De\u011fer miydi? Kesinlikle. Samui'de tuk-tuk'a binmek, A noktas\u0131ndan B noktas\u0131na gitmenin en h\u0131zl\u0131 veya en ucuz yolu olmasa da, yava\u015f seyahat konusunda bir ders niteli\u011finde; adan\u0131n kalp at\u0131\u015flar\u0131n\u0131 dinlemeye, kokular\u0131n\u0131n ve renklerinin teninize i\u015flemesine izin vermeye bir davet.<\/p>\n

Elbette, trafik s\u0131k\u0131\u015f\u0131kl\u0131\u011f\u0131 ve birka\u00e7 ani muson ya\u011fmuru anlar\u0131 da vard\u0131 (tuk-tuklar su ge\u00e7irmez de\u011fildir, bunu hemen \u00f6\u011freneceksiniz). Ama bunlar da birer hikayeydi: yabanc\u0131larla payla\u015f\u0131lan kahkahalar, bir pazar tentesinin korumas\u0131, ya\u011fmurun ge\u00e7mesini beklerken taze mangonun tad\u0131.<\/p>\n

H\u0131z ve rahatl\u0131k istiyorsan\u0131z, araba kiralay\u0131n. Ama Koh Samui'yi t\u00fcm duyular\u0131n\u0131zla g\u00f6rmek istiyorsan\u0131z, yani sadece i\u00e7inden ge\u00e7mekle kalmay\u0131p, aday\u0131 hissetmek istiyorsan\u0131z, bir tuk-tuka atlay\u0131n, s\u0131k\u0131ca tutunun ve yolun a\u00e7\u0131lmas\u0131na izin verin.<\/p>\n
