Tibet
Tibet, also called the ‘third pole or the roof of the world,’ is geographically located in the northern part of the Himalayas and is well endowed with natural beauty. Tibet still contains broad, flat terrains, Mount Everest, the world’s highest mountain, and religious lakes, such as Yamdrok and Manasarovar. The region has historical, political, and spiritual interests; the capital of the area, Lhasa, houses the palace of the Dalai Lama and the Jokhang temple.
Tibet is not only a country of beautiful monasteries, shrines, and temples, but also it is a country of rough and tough geographical terrains. Groups of pilgrims go around holy mountains such as Mount Kailash, while others are nomadic herders who can be found on the vast grassland. Its tradition is closely connected with the centuries of isolation and reflects deep spirituality united with a rather plain and complex way of life. Tibet is not only captivating scenery that you will see while on your trip, but it is also a culture that embraces nature and spirituality.
