My trip arround Qinghai Lake didn’t get off to a great start, from a documentarian perspective. We stopped at some temple somewhere — I want to say Huangyuan? — but I just snapped a quick pic and urged us on to the lake.
In my defense, there are so many temples in China. And, yes, they’re all beautiful. And, yes, they all have great historical import. But sometimes they all start to blur together. I think I’ve grown a bit desensitized.
