A visit to Tibet is a visit to another
world, and one that is never forgotten. High
on the stunning Tibetan plateau, the
civilization of Lhasa and its sister cities
of Gyantse and Shigatse preserves one of the
richest culture on the planet. Tibet is a
land of religion, and our guests experience
its flavor from the moment of their arrival
at the airport. On their visit to Tibet,
they will be awed by the power of the
immense ruined monasteries and the majesty
of the grand Potala Palace.
In the capital city of Lhasa, which is
reached by regular flights or motor
transport from Kathmandu, they can shop for
curios among the friendly Tibetans at the
delightful Bharkor market, and will delight
in such relice as the Jeweled Garden of
Norbulinka and the sacred Jokhang Temple,
the country's most important shrine. For
those with a taste for adventure, our guests
are offered treks in Tibetan mountains and
valleys, and trips to sacred Mt. Kailash and
its companion holy Lake Manasarovar. |
