森林旅游

Circling around the beltway, bypassing the snow mountains, merging into mushroom-shape white clouds in the blue sky, one started to wonder whether this is real?  The Tibetan style architecture and colorful prayer flags keep on reminding visitors that it is real!  It is simply the window to another mysterious world.

Is this a snow mountain or white cloud?

Challenge from the high elevation

The hard-to-get experience and treasurable episode in life

The holy peak approached the closest point of your life

This road is wide without borders but it is stuffed with so many people’s hopes.

The deepest thoughts

The most beautiful imaginations

Want to save you in my camera and take you with me

Don’t want to miss a thing

A simple stone was chiseled with scale.  Imagine the effort to chisel, one after another, comes with the purest and the most detailed thoughts.

The living standards in Tibet has improved significantly over the time.

“Stroll” under blue sky

The peak

Walking through the clouds, the mountain was filled with a mixture of calm and rebellion.

Nature is the most skillful artist.  A random touch turns into a masterpiece.

The peak

Is that how it looked like when the earth was formed?

The sign reminded us that we are approaching a famous saint in Buddhism.

Milarepa (1032-1123) was born in the village of Kya Ngatsa, also known as Tsa in the Gungthang province of western Tibet.  He is the second generation founder of Kagyu sec in Tibet Buddhism. He is said to be the first to achieve the enlightment state within one lifetime.  We went to see the cave where he practised after he inherited from his master Marpa.

Bright yellow wall, the twin deer and wheel of the law on top of the roof appear extremely peaceful in the background of the blue sky.

The mountains along the way are no longer an extension of simple color.  Accompanied by mystery and pureness, they come with plainess and excellence.   It's the merge of the brilliance of Tibetan's tenacious saint and the beauty of the nature.

Creek says: here comes the spring

What you need is not only the trip but also the unsulliedness from blue sky and snow moutain.  You need not only the tour in Tibet but also the serenity in your mind.
