Weather in general, very thick clouds. Walked out of the city of Lhasa after a period of relatively good asphalt road full of dirt road, though it still does not affect us enjoy the beautiful scenery. Distance is the lofty rolling mountains, and sometimes one or two flags chains wind swagger. Stream side of the road with the mountain turn, one will be merged into a river, one will be divided into creeks, patting cheerful waves, keep the ball rolling forward. The more the car climbed higher still see several Tibetan villages. In the village, stands a stone formed on the Tibetan stone blocks of rooms, the roof of the wind Fimbristylis colored Qi Fan, and villages in the vicinity of a stretch of golden barley plot of terraced echoes. We climbed to the clouds a moment where, after passing through the clouds and saw the whole peak is around his colorful hada around streamer fluttering, fluttering in the cold wind did ring. Far from a glance, very low cloud cover, cloud looked like at the foot of the mountain, like tentacles can be overhauled to walk that is, the distant mountain peak Nyainqentanglha faintly visible.
