    On the road to Lake Tsongmo

    The road so far is twisty and steep and lined in many places with hundreds of vertical prayer flags. We learned that the white ones are honoring the dead.

    TravelerWhite prayer flags honoring the deadAre the white flags placed at the sight of a landslide or something?
