Lesotho is one of only three countries on earth entirely surrounded by another, and the only one that sits, in its entirety, above 1,400 metres. That altitude explains almost everything: the snow, the blankets worn as national dress, the horses, the water it sells to its enormous neighbor. Come expecting sub-Saharan heat and you will spend your first afternoon shivering in a jeep. Come prepared, and you get one of Africa's most quietly extraordinary landscapes.
