A Passage to India
Episode 2 of 6
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.
