Across the bridge that is the actual border point, Chinese officials concern themselves with passport control. Ethnic Tibetans are largely barred from leaving for Nepal and India. Admission to T.A.R. is only granted to groups who acquire liaison officers at the border. Visitors are mainly tourists and pilgrims of the Bon, Buddhist, Hindu, Jain and even New Age faiths bound for Lake Manasarovar and Mount Kailash. Beyond Hilsa, they proceed by road some up the Karnali to Burang Town, known to Nepalis and Indians as Taklakot (तकलाकोट, taklākoț). It is the main staging point for excursions to the holy lake and mountain.
