Norden Camp, Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, China,

Norden Camp is the realization of a dream shared by Yidam Kyap, a Tibetan nomad raised in these grasslands, and his Tibetan-American wife Dechen Yeshi, to create opportunities for the Tibetan community in this pristine corner of China’s remote Gansu Province.

Overseen by Dechen and Yidam, whose relatives still live in this undulating, wildflower strewn landscape here at 3,200 meters (10,500 feet) above sea level, Norden Camp offers priceless natural luxuries like fresh air, Himalayan fed river water and vast expanses of emerald-tinged terrain along with Tibetan hospitality, authentic gastronomy and unexpectedly plush comforts.

The campsite, a grazing area in winter for sheep and yaks, unfurls across 11 hectares ringed by Himalayan foothills. On any given day, nomadic neighbors may host horse festivals or Buddhist celebrations.
