Features: This book tells the story of how a curious external world opened the doors of Tibet. The story is so strange, tragic, and chilling. No country has inspired as many speculations as this mysterious region in the heart of Central Asia. In that place, the prayer wheel is their only wheel. They are ruled by the god-king. Tibet has always been a dreamlike subject for travelers. In a world where there are few secrets left, everything here seems quite plausible.
