Tibet

Tibet is the autonomous region in Southwestern China. A land filled with mysteries from centuries, Tibet is very less travelled but more and more popular destination day by day. Tibet is known as the roof of the world because of the high elevation of average 4900 meters throughout the vast plateau. The highest plateau on the earth, extended across huge plains and high passes, it is one of the stunning tourist places on the earth.

Potala Palace and Norbulinka in Lhasa, monasteries,  monks and nuns, prayers, the spectacular views of mountains, lakes and colourful prayer flags, wild road trips, Mount Kailash and Lake Manasarovar pilgrimage, very beautiful adventure trekking trails, hidden river valley and age old caravan trails, ancient Buddhist cities and architectures, all are there to attract travelers more and more. Unexploited until now, the ancient Buddhist philosophy and culture is what really makes travelers surprise. Buddhism and spirituality is not only about the religion in Tibet, it is the way of Tibetan peoples’ lives. If you are very interested in intercultural exchange, then its sure that your visit to Tibet will make your way of life completely different immediately after the trip.

While Tibet is the holy place for Buddhists, Hindus also have the great respect to Mount Kailash and Lake Manasarovara because they believe their greatest God Shiva meditated at Mount Kailash in Tibet. Traditionally, for Hindus, ending life at Mount Kailash / Lake Manasarovar is the result of blessings for great deeds. Now a days, travelers from all over the world with interest in ‘Shiva’ and ‘mediation’ don’t miss Tibet (Mount Kailash) after their visit to Nepal.
