After returning from Mt. Kailash we visited another monastery in the area around Lhasa. One of them was the Samye Monastery, a temple and monastery complex built as a mandala. On the way we passed lonely monasteries high on a rocky outcrop, but I can’t remember their name.

And then it was already over again, the fabulous time in Tibet came to an end and we made our way with a flight to Chengdu, the capital of the Chinese province Sichuan in China’s lowlands.
