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.
I love your great photoblog with such impressions from a land, that's about to loose slowly its old identity (you know what I mean, don't you). Keep on blogging. When you publish a book with your photos, pleeeeeeease let me know!
Dr Joseph Rock was an Austrian-American botanist who explored the Tibetan borderlands of Sichuan and Yunnan in the 1920s and 30s. This is about my travels to revisit the places he described in the National Geographic magazine. Any questions? contact me at beijingweek AT gmail

Thanks - I hope to post some more pics after my next trip to Yunnan early next year.
