Features: This book describes several Tibetan villages located at the foot of the Kawagarbo Snow Mountain and in the Lancang River Gorge. They exist between a unique geographical environment, a rich spiritual world, and meager material conditions. Isolated from the outside world, where even a trip might require crossing mountains and rivers, they unexpectedly captivate the heart—at least for the author Fan Wen, for Ma Hua, who voluntarily went to teach in Tibetan villages and left his life there, and for me—a person who has so far had no opportunity to visit but has long been drawn to it.
