Journey with the author as she follows the clue ‘Shambhalla, Gobi Desert’, to explore sacred landscapes, remote forgotten monasteries and fabled lost cities in Mongolia, ‘The Land of Blue Skies’. With the aid of a driver, guide and a Russian-made ‘Forgon’ van for transport, they spend a month travelling across vast expanses of rolling steppe, high glacial mountains, impenetrable forests and deep, crystal lakes in the north; and the Gobi Desert in the south that stretches to the horizon, seemingly empty save for deep canyons and sweeping sand dunes. Join her as she stays in remote Ger camps, socialises with Nomads and experiences the vagaries of travelling in this vast landscape; with the elements at times seemingly trying to conspire against them. Will she find the Shambhalla of legend; or the location of the fabled ‘City of Serpents’, with its shimmering, golden palace and magical fortress surrounded and protected by a ring of etheric dragons? This is an insightful tale of synchronicity, intuition and spiritual dowsing; combined with practical travel advice that will delight both the experienced traveller and the armchair voyager. A high quality, full colour publication with multiple photographs and hand-drawn maps that include energy flows dowsed at sacred locations.
