Tibetean pilgrims prostrating, "chaktsel pa"
As we descend the Parlung valley we do so beside pilgrims making their way to Lhasa. Their path is via the road and ours the river, we have regular contact with familiar faces. Whilst the journey they are taking is of a more spritual/religious nature it surrounds ours with a very real and authentic vibe.
