This picture taken on May 29, 2017 shows Chinese tourists posing for a picture overlooking partially demolished houses at the Larung Gar Buddhist Institute in Sertar county in southwest China's Sichuan province.
Thousands of monks, nuns and laypeople – including many Han Chinese devotees – crowd this remote valley in Sichuan province to study at Larung Gar, the world's largest and most important institution for Tibetan Buddhist learning. But authorities have ordered the mass expulsion of devotees back to their place of origin, warning that the area is dangerously overcrowded. (Photo by Johannes Eisele/AFP Photo)
