Tucked away in the mountains above Danba, Jiaju is a village with typical Tibetan houses and traditionally dressed, hospitable people.
When we stepped through the door of a Tibetan guesthouse, we entered a small, well-lit courtyard. We were surprised by the brightly coloured wooden panels and doors, with rich decorations all around us. The arduous trip was quickly forgotten as we installed ourselves in our rooms. We were sleeping on typical Tibetan benches in equally colourful rooms, had a tasty Tibetan supper, and slept on the rather hard benches. The next morning, we unfortunately woke up under a grey sky from which rain did not stop pouring down. We said goodbye to our hospitable host family and explored the village while walking down the hills.
