Introduction:
The author of the book has visited Tibet 19 times within 16 years, covering almost every county, city and a great number of villages. During each of his Tibetan journeys, the author faithfully recorded what he saw, heard and felt, sparing no effort or danger to photograph the magnificent natural scenery of Tibet's snow-coverd land, its exotic local customs and conditions, its solemn scenes of Buddhist worship. This book is based on that material, arranged as 14 topics whose fine text and lavish photography present precious moments and places that lie beyond the easy reach of ordinary people.
