From the Pandzong morung the path leads down over steep steps, some of which are cut into the rock. Then an avenue opens up flanked by those beautiful dark-green trees which now bear pale green to faintly pink fruits the size of a nut. Their surface is made up of numerous, about pin-head sized blobs and the flesh which is not really protected by a skin has a slightly sour aromatic taste, reminiscent at once of strawberries and pine needles. After a walk in the heat they are a most pleasant refreshment. These trees along the walk have been planted by the morung and are its property. |
