The vista is from Kashi (Kashgar) in Xinjiang Province to about 2 hours away from the border town of Pakistan. We were traveling on a day excursion and all we saw were countless snow peaked mountain tops and lakes. Very stark and raw and isolated from the rest of humanity. Excellent photo opportunities! #blue
The yurt is the traditional dwelling of the nomads in Mongolia
I think the best sights are those that appeared right in front of your vision when least expected. As is the case here on the day excursion from Kashgar (Kashi to the Chinese). Mountains after mountains with snow peaks and lakes under the #blue sky! Yes, this is a rarity in Asia. Most places are crowded with civilization but this rare window into the heart of China is what takes breath away, not the pollution in the cities! #ontheroad
