The road zigzags down from 4500m towards Wachang.

This is a picture that Joseph Rock took from the opposite direction, from the eastern bank of the Litang river valley, towards Muli. You can see the monastery complex circled by a wall.

Here is some similar views taken from the back of a truck as I left Muli in 1994.
