Our arrival in Derge, the cultural centre of Kham, caused a sensation

   
Derge Gompa is the foremost printing works for sacred scriptures

Each page of the hundreds of scriptures is carved onto a wooden block, which are stored in racks

 
The block is inked, laid on this slat and a strip of handmade paper rolled onto the top
