I found a beautiful region around the "Altay" or "Altai" mountains in Russia. It's located a few kilometers from the intersecting borders of China, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, and Russia. We are here in the dead center of the continent of Asia. A region that has been rarely explored by tourists. I guess it's because it's such a vast region, with very few villages, and tough weather. But that wouldn't be a reason not to venture in the arms of mother Nature.
Once again, there are no words for describing beautiful landscape, and definitely no words describing the actual experience. So i'm going to cut down on description and leave you guys with pics from the ingenious API "Panoramio" embedded in GEarth.
