TIBETAN COUNTRYSIDE

Off-roading all over Tibet in the Land Cruiser gave me the best impression of unadulterated Tibet. There were no Chinese influences to be seen and it felt like I was seeing the Tibetan people as they were for the past century. As for the scenery, it is better than anything I could have imagined.

We drove over everything as it was easy to get lost and difficult to find our way again
