Excellent
Le gompa de Rizong, haut perché dans l'Himalaya, sur la rive droite de l'Indus, occupe un cirque remarquable. Les bâtiments blancs s'étagent en demi-cercle, tel un théâtre gréco-romain. Les cellules ouvrent leur unique fenêtre sur la vallée, offrant la simple intimité des moines à notre regard curieux : une unique pièce, sans isolation, où la natte voisine avec le réchaud à gaz, sous le traditionnel portrait du Dalaï Lama. Impression de bout du monde, de vie rude loin de la civilisation, mais quelles beautés !
The gompa Rizong, perched high in the Himalayas, on the right bank of the Indus, occupies a remarkable circus. The white buildings are staged in a semicircle as a Greco-Roman theater. Cells open their unique window on the valley, offering simple privacy monks our curious gaze: a single room without insulation, where the mat next to the gas stove, under the traditional portrait of the Dalai Lama. Print around the world, living rough far from civilization, but what beauties!
