Description
 
In a land once called Shangshung stands a mesmerizing, mysterious, mystical mountain, a summit of spiritual beauty. Kailash is unique amongst mountains, for it casts a spell of wonder upon its intrepid admirers.

Under the same Tantric spell, the former Kingdom of Guge, with its dramatically set fortress monasteries of Tsaparang and Spiti, has been in decline for over 350 years.

But where is this lost world of the hidden mystery, with its secret, haunting troglodyte villages, towering mud turrets and unbelievable Himalayan vistas?

This book is much more than a route to Kailash and Guge, for in Land of the Tantric Mountain we also explore the mysteries of the religions, as well as the history and the cultural aspects of Shangshung or Western Tibet.

Kailash and Guge: Land of the Tantric Mountain, Bob Gibbons, Sian Pritchard Jones, Pilgrims Publishing, 232 pp, $20.00
