China - Leaving Tibet

Sunday, 28 April 2019

On our way from Lhasa to Chongqing. It will be a relief to return to plentiful oxygen levels, even if the price will be air quality.

Driving back to the airport, we passed a bridge with an unusual design.
A closer look at the bridge supports.
I was also prepared to try to get a picture or two of yaks grazing along the river banks.
More yaks. China has started some serious tree plantations throughout the country.
A 3-D mural at the entrance to the longest tunnel on the way to the airport.
Compared to other Buddhist countries we've visited, prayer flags were not prominent in Tibet -- and when they were displayed, they were in these circular "teepee" arrangements.
The dry mountains around Lhasa.
We also passed over snow-covered peaks on our way to Chongqing.
