A new city has been erected across from The Cottages where we are staying

The air has been filled with smoke from fires from India that have been blowing in.

Remains of a nearby monastery destroyed by fire across the valley from Rincchengan Village.

We visited the old village of Rinchengang that could be several centuries old. It is built high on the hill near to the terrace rice fields worked by the residents.

Local residents. At first they did not want their photo taken. Definitely a very hard life esistence . I did and showed it to them. They smiled and then I took another and they agreed to it.

The village sits high up on surrounding hills.

Home sweet home for someone. Hundreds of years old too.
