the train from Chengdu to Lhasa
the train station was very busy
the queue is growing
WOW! from G as I wake up after our first night on the train hurtling towards the spiritual capital of Tibetan Buddhism- Lhasa - steep green gorges with tiny houses and cultivated fields - blue sky for the first time in China.
passing through beautiful scenery, serene hills and lakes
neat small towns
After steep green gorges came hillsides terraced into fields and then steep bleached ocher barren hills. The floor of the valley has every inch cultivated.
Feels very ancient as this must have been the old silk route.
