Tibet : The Roof of the World

1999
Imagine a place of tall, snow-covered mountains and pristine lakes. Imagine a place with unique buildings and monasteries covered in emblems and colours dedicated to religion and strong beliefs. Imagine a culture with the worship and praise of Buddha and religious founders being its essence. Here, the people care nothing for war and strive for peace. However, a land this wonderful could only stay pure and free for so long. Some call it the Tibet Autonomous Region. We prefer to call it Tibet, the Roof of the World.
