Images of Tibet
All these images of Tibet were taken during our trip at Sichuan and Qinghai Kham regions of China, which should, but can’t be called Tibetan regions. Namely, it was Chengdu, Huanglong National Park, Jiuzhaigou Valley Park, Gade, Langmusi, Xiahe, Golog, Madoi, Gonghe, Qilian, Xining villages and towns along the way.
Tibet… Mysterious, famous, attractive, but distant country. Ops… Unfortunately, not an independent country. Since 1949 Tibet is occupied by China and now we could see only the tiny remains of the ancient culture, Buddhist monasteries and native people population. China expends, and if someone wants to see the true Tibetan culture, it’s better to be in a hurry.
