Natalie left for Beijing a couple of days before our train, but not before we squeezed in the largest Monastery in Tibet, Deprung.
After a tea break in a cave....
For our last day in Lhasa, we did not one, but two walking tours, taking in lots of sites including more temples and stopping next to a lake with a temple in the middle to give the locals plenty of time for a good stare at us! You don't see many like us in Tibet!

Our favourite bit was the end of the day when we found a holy stone that you rub different body parts on to heal. We both spent a happy ten minutes rubbing our entire bodies!
We then saw a painted rock carving in front of which lots of people were prostrating and a Chorten built from 1,000 painted Buddha images.
