In a remote corner of western Tibet, in one of the
highest, loneliest and most desolate places on earth,
rises a sublime snow-clad pyramid of rock, Mount
Kailash. For over a thousand years pilgrims have made
the arduous journey here to walk around the mountain in
an ancient
ritual of devotion, for Kailash is a site of immense
natural power.

Here the moral and eternal unite and the divine takes
physical form. Asia's most sacred mountain stands a
remote corner of western Tibet, isolated by rugged terrain
from all but a handful of outsiders. Its name is mount
Kailash, its reputation nearly-legendary.
To pilgrims
of four religions this 22028 feet rook pyramid is the throne
of the gods and the "Navel of the Earth", a place where the
divine takes earthly form. For well over a thousand years,
pilgrims have journeyed here to pay homage to the mountain's
mystery, circumambulating it in an ancient ritual of
devotion that continues to this day.
