Qingpu Mountain lies in Shannan prefecture, south of Lhasa, the capital of Tibet autonomous region. In the mountain, several nuns find an escape from the madding crowd and a spiritual home in Qingpu temple.

Lying 4,300 meters above the sea level, the temple is considered a holy land for penance in Tibet. [Photo/qq.com]
