After completing the border formalities at both the Nepalese and Chinese immigration posts we drive up a series of incredibly steep switchbacks to Zhangmu on the Tibetan side of the border.  We then drive for another 30km to Nyalam, again on a steep winding road which passes through a mossy gully with cascading waterfalls.		Nyilam Lodge

We then arrive at the beautiful Lake Manasarovar , just 30km south of Mt Kailash. It is separated from another lake, Rakshas Tal, by a narrow strip of land and the two lakes are linked by a small channel. On the rare occasions when water flows in this channel, it is said to be a good sign for the Tibetan people.		tented camp
