During our visit to the monastery dedicated to the tombs of Kings in Yarlong Valley, a local Tibetan boy took us to a hillside with a single stone lion carving overlooking the nearby valley. The view was awesome, however, the lion was placed not facing the beautiful valley view. It was facing uphill towards a series of caves.

To get there, you just have to ask the locals. We had a picture of the stone lion from a magazine, and we showed it around to get directions. And this nice boy volunteered to take us there.
