Text Appearing Before Image: Text Appearing After Image: THE SZECHUAN BRIDGE ACROSS THE DZA CHU AT CHAMDO Ill AT CHAMDO 115 with Jyekundo as one of the most important centres ofEastern Tibet. It was formerly the capital of the lama-ruledTibetan State of the same name, and was the residence of thelama ruler, locally known as the Tsangdruba^. The smallChinese commissariat official stationed here in those dayswith a few Chinese soldiers kept very much to himself andwas careful not to interfere with the lama rulers^. Chao Erh-feng seized Chamdo in 1909, expelled the Tibetan officials,and set up a Chinese magistrate. During the troubles of1912-13 the Chinese attacked and destroyed the monastery,reducing the huge buildings to heaps of rubble. The Tibetanshave never forgotten or forgiven this act of sacrilege. Five main roads meet at and near Chamdo, namely thoseleading west to Lhasa ^, north to Jyekundo, east to De-geGonchen and Kanze, south-east to Batang, and south toYunnan. The Ngom Chu and Dza Chu are each spanned byfine cantilever bridges, p Note About Images Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original work. |
