    The huge buildings in the left top corner of the picture...are they hotel resorts? They don't blend in with the environment. :lol3

    A hydro-electric project is coming up near that place.May be those buildings are the offices/residences of those working on it.

    Amazing countryside ! Spectacular views !

    I especially like the shots with rural peasant life. You are a lucky man to live in a area so amazing and some parts hardly touched by time !

    Do you ever see other riders way in the countryside ?
