Tibet 05 01 Yamdrok Tso Kamba La  [5 of 24]


The road from Lhasa to Gyantse (260km) took us over two mountain passes. From the Kamba La (4794m), we had a fantastic view of the beautiful Yamdrok Tso (Turquoise lake) with Nojin Kangtsang (7191m) behind, hidden in the clouds. In the foreground is the new paved road just opened in June 2005, in preparation for the 40th anniversary of the creation of the Tibet Autonomous Region.
