Kham then and now. A photoblog showing how eastern Tibet looked in the 1920s and how the same places and people look now. Based on the explorations of botanist Joseph Rock.

Still very grateful to be able to follow your amazing journey. Never seen that picture of Mao and HHDL before - and in color! They look like the best of friends...too bad this historic meeting didn't save the Tibetans from being invaded and forced to bow to Chinese law.
Thanks so much for sharing these beautiful pictures.
