13th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
HE is here

We were all waiting for the arrival of His Holiness The Sakya Trizin. Excitement was in the air all around us when we saw his helicopter approaching.People were coming to see him from every corner of the town, everybody dressed up in their best clothing. That's when i turned around and saw this lady praying, she was very religious, so seeing him was very important for her. It was magical, even without knowing what's going on, we knew that someone important is here...
