The road to Muli: Wachang [瓦厂] at last!


wachang first, originally uploaded by jiulong.

After walking for three days from Yongning with little sign of any other towns, we eventually plodded down towards the bottom of the Litang river valley. Weary and hungry, we rounded a corner and there before us was a small white walled settlement on a spur above the valley - it was Wachang [瓦厂] - the only "town" in the upper part of the valley, and the base for exploring the Muli monastery. We had made it!
