The 2015-2016 edition features the Republic of Buryatia, which stretches along the eastern shores of Lake Baikal.
Although it is part of Russia, it is a deeply religious region where Mongolian and Tibetan cultures coexist.
We also visited the Barguzinskaya Valley, just east of Lake Baikal, which had not previously been featured.
For our coverage of the Trans-Siberian Railway, a female photographer traveled the entire line.
She provided us with photos of the beautiful scenery from the train window and interactions with the local people, as well as an article that reaffirms what an amazing journey the Trans-Siberian Railway is.
