What reading level is From Pekin to Sikkim Through the Ordos, the Gobi Desert, And Tibet book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the eastern portion stands a large temple in an excellent state of preservation. It is like many others in the arrangement of its buildings, but excels most of them in cleanliness, and in the care spent on the different buildings. The number of lamas is not as large as in some of the Ordos temples ; but they are much more friendly.
The other object of interest is a garden 40 yards square, in which are carefully cultivated plants rare in the Alashan desert. We were made to admire more especia...lly a fig-tree, whose miserable appearance was enough to prove that it was out of its element there. In a kind of green house, facing south, there are common plants set in pots, as one sees them in Chinese houses at Pekin.
The celebrated Prince Tuan is in retirement at Fu - ma - fii. He was living, I was told, in 102 THE FAMOUS TONG FU THIANG [ch.iv.
a yamen inside the town, but as I was anxious to remain in favour with the Prince of Alashan, and to obtain all the facilities I could from him, I made no detailed enquiry.
