For four days and three nights, our caravan makes its way across these Tibetan Marshes, through terrain surrounded by steep peaks, together with our muleteer friends, men and women – all Tibetan farmers from the Nizhu village

a unique adventure that starts in the Nizhu village and reaches for
the mountains that separate the Yunnan and Sichuan provinces. The Nizhu Caravan is an invitation to discover this culture and its forgotten landscapes, true jewels on the outskirts of the Himalayas
