The approach to Nar

To reach Nar from Meta you first pass a bridge spanning a deep and narrow gorge and an old fortress that controlled the approach to Nar. The old bridge is still there, but it has been replaced by a new steel structure. Then you reach the Nar gates at the top of the hill and pass by a line of wonderful chortens.

Efter snefaldet i oktober var der lavet en smal sti i sneen på en stejl bjergside

Nar

Turning a corner you are rewarded with great views of Nar, the patterns of the surrounding barley and mustard fields, four old, colourful and traditional gompas and the snow peaks looming overhead.

Threshing corn



 


Høstarbejdet er i fuld gang nat og dag i Nar da jeg ankommer. Kornet tærskes med plejl

Efter tærskning kastes kornet (renses for avner)

 

   

 

 

Arbejdet foregår såvel i udkanten af landsbyen som på hustagene
