     Extractions: (from Oct. 2002 trip) Tibet: A Journey to Beyond Tomorrow There are chances to find other worlds, other places, where people live other lives than us. Tibet is one of those places. Life is a great adventure and Tibet offers us the chance to live a life of great adventure. My first short journey into Tibet, was something I will never forget. In October 2000, I went to Tibet as part of a 4 person tour, lead by Tibetian guides. The first couple of days we went to the main temples in Lhasa. In the afternoons I went to see the monks chanting at the Jokhang Temple We went in a Land Cruiser up into the mountains. Our camps were out on the barren mountains, beside sparkling rivers. Nomads that live in tents and tend herds of Yaks came to visit our camp. Sometimes there would be up to 30 children, nomads, or farmers hanging around our camp. I had my guitar and played music for them. They were all really nice people. We visited Temples, sacred caves, monasteries, and nunneries that were built up on the sides of mountains. Away from the tourists in Lhasa, the more remote places gave us quiet moments to hang out, meditate, and feel the culture.

128. Tibet: Cry Of The Snow Lion
     Review and pictures.  
     http://www.haro-online.com/movies/tibet_cry_of_the_snow_lion.html
     
     Extractions: Tibet: Cry of the Snow Lion "Free Tibet" is the rallying cry for actors like Richard Gere, Tim Robbins, and Susan Sarandon, and rock groups like the Beastie Boys, REM, and the Foo Fighters. But beyond that, not many people know a lot about why Tibet is such a cause celebre. They know that the Dalai Lama is in exile, won a Nobel Prize a few years ago, and travels the world, but that's about all. Tibet: Cry of the Snow Lion is an excellent primer on the history of Tibet and its current struggles for independence. Make no mistake about it, Cry of the Snow Lion is not an unbiased documentary. It clearly advocates the cause for a Tibet free from China, but it is so well researched, passionate about its cause, and reasonable in its assumptions that it's hard not to be persuaded by its arguments. The Chinese government is conquering Tibet by sheer numbers. They provide incentives for Chinese to move there en masse, and treat native Tibetans like a lower class. Tibet, often called "the roof of the world" is so important because of its location. Strategically, the country that controls Tibet controls all of Asia. It sits right in between two nuclear powers that happen to be the most populous nations in the country (with about half of the world's population). China captured and cruelly tortured Tibetans, while destroying centuries old monasteries. Peosay and writers Victoria Mudd (

     Travelogue of the first Himalaya crossing by tandem bike in the summer of 1997.  
     http://cornelis.med.rug.nl/Tibet/
     
     Extractions: In the summer of 1997, Martine Vos and Frans Cornelissen traveled by tandem bike from Kunming, Yunnan, China to Kathmandu, Nepal via Tibet. They were the first ever to travel the famous Lhasa-Katmandu highway through the Himalayas by tandem bike. On their way, they crossed several 5000 meter high mountain passes, navigated the worst roads imaginable, had long and fears arguments with the Chinese authorities, made an unplanned 1400 km and 6 day bus ride and rode on (or under?) "the roof of the world". This is our story in pictures . To continue reading the story, navigate with the small arrow butttons on the top and bottom of the page.
