A few Pix from the Snow Mountain
En route to Deqin
Taking the bull for a walk
Cows like the road to rest
Yaks above the clouds
Dinner view
Morning offering – at last the god of clouds was pleased
On the way to the holy mountain
Inside the temple – 20 more minutes to go up
Good morning pilgrims
Had to have a beer here to gather strength for the way down
More offerings
Good Bye!
On the way back to Deqin
Now it is 9.13 – outside i can hear somebody with a wood saw, chicken, sometimes a car honking, and the monks pray. Sky is still gray. Have more than 3 hours before the bus leaves for Lijiang. Found a host over there that has a nice old house – similar to the one from Monika and Alex in Deli.
Time for a shower and breakfast!
