Barren, cold, unhospitable: those words come to mind when you travel through Qinghai. The landscape is varied - the road I travelled, was very beautiful because of the solitude, the open character, the vastness.
Tibet has always made me think of barren landscapes, of cold, of snow-capped mountains. On my way down through Amdo and Kham territory, these images actually came to life. It was early April and therefore still cold, when I left Xining heading South. Quite soon, I saw small streams lying like frozen crusts in the landscape. After passing through rolling lands, we reached the foot of the Tibetan highlands. As we climbed, the last, little vegetation we had seen, disappeared - I would not see it again until I returned to Xining.
