A young girl contemplates her world from a step in Kathmandu that a few years hence will be upended by the earthquakes of 2015.
A statue of Buddha rests above the Thimphu Valley in Bhutan.
This cliff walk is one of four footpaths into the higher reaches ofLadakh—all only accessible for six or seven months a year. During winter access is by walking the frozen Zanskar River—called the Chadar route.
After hugging the cliffs around hairpin turns where overloaded logging trucks squeeze past each other, this road in eastern Tibet finally flows out of the mountains and off the Tibetan Plateau toward Chengdu.
Prayer flags wave before Mt. Chomolhari in Bhutan. It is considered a sacred mountain and thus no climbers are allowed.
These mountains on the Bhutanese/Tibetan border near the village of Laya seem both to belch clouds and attract the spirits of light.
