Michael Palin continues his trek by travelling from K2 in Pakistan to Ladakh in India.

Michael Palin continues his Himalayan trek by going from K2 in Pakistan to Ladakh in India - a short distance as the crow flies, but a huge loop on the ground due to politics.

Michael Palin continues his Himalayan trek by travelling from K2 in Pakistan to Ladakh in India - a short distance as the crow flies but, due to politics, a huge loop. He passes through the Sikh city of Amritsar, with its Golden Temple, and through Shimla, with its Vice Regal Lodge, Gaiety Theatre and cosy half-timbered teahouses. He then meets the fourteenth Dalai Lama in Dharamsala, where the Tibetan government is in exile.
