Tibet in 10 photos
by Matjaz Trontelj
Ashuk, a small village in East Tibet is the birthplace of ancient King Gesar. His estate has the best yellow winter grass, perfect for lying in it and observing the clouds.
New year celebrations
Monks of Shechen monastery pray, play and eat during rituals that last for seven days and nights.
Blue skies of winter
And rays of warm sun making me happy while resting after breakfast.
King Gesar
Lord of the Rings feels like a bedtime story compared to his adventures.
Hair and bones
strewn among flowers at the burial site.
Rainbow around the sun
A proper reward for climbing to the top of the mountain above the Shechen monastery.
Tashi resting
in the nature of the mind. Clear, spacious and fun.
Nothing to add.
Yulong Lhantso lake
Snowflakes are melting on it's turquoise surface, travellers are unable to leave.
Everything is simple
when you observe it from high above.
