Xiahe

First stop out of Beijing and i felt like i was in Tibet already.. that's when i started to realize that half of China was actually Tibet.

Buddhist tourists visiting the main temple in Xiahe.

Remember the raft ?

Just to re-sync with the trip; here's where we are: on the "Raft of the medusa".. 22 hours of packed hard-seat train between Beijing and Lanzhou..
More country side coming soon!
