The 7 Summits Club guide Olya Rumyantseva reports from Tibet:

Hello everyone from Tibet! Today we had a day of almost rest. In the morning we visited the Chiu monastery, which perched like a bird on the top of the mountain. This monastery was built on the site where Guru Rimpoche first came to bring Buddhism to Tibet. According to legend, in the cave where he stayed and over which the monastery was built, there is an imprint of his foot in the stone. We looked and confirmed that there is an imprint of someone's foot.

 In the monastery, we received instructions from a monk and talked with a family from a village in northern Tibet, who came to make a pilgrimage in honor of Saga Dawa. After that, we went to Lake Rakshastal, in which, according to legend, demons live. We didn't find any demons, but we saw stunningly beautiful landscapes. On the way, we saw herds of horses grazing against the backdrop of Kailash and yaks, who almost trampled us. And also people who perform kora with prostrations around the sacred lake Manosarovar.

After lunch, it was time to rest, prepare for tomorrow's hiking trip and walk around the village - after all, there are so many interesting things on its streets.
