354 km south-west of Lhasa, on the edge of; and at 3 900 m above sea level, Via is the capital of Tsang province in the centre of Tibet. From the castle of the mighty kings that reigned between 1585 and 1642, only the ramparts remain. Via became a big Chinese city without soul. You have to browse in the streets, behind the market, where white houses in the way with wooden window frames are still reminiscent of traditional architecture. The market gives the opportunity to meet the people. We were snoops, we were joking, we were shopping, and, looking for nothing, we found a xylographie board or some old object as a souvenir.
