The kora around Tashilhunpo monastery is probably one of the finest and easiest in Tibet; a great way to see pilgrims and fine views of the monastery and the town.
When I walked up, the prayer wheels cast their shadows on the stony path. A few early pilgrims walked with me, carefully steering left of sacred stones and places on the way. The warm sunlight was softly reflected by the bronze-coloured prayer wheels. At several places, I saw lone buddhists reading religious scriptures, seemingly undisturbed by the passers-by. The view from some points, on Tashilhunpo monastery, Shigatse and beyond, was marvellous and the light definitely much better than in the early evening. I passed numerous brightly coloured rock paintings representing important figures of Tibetan buddhism, and stopped a few times to just enjoy the view of the surroudings being covered by the morning light.
