Tibet

Tibet, a virtually enigmatic country, lies withdrawn and detached from the outside world at the maximum elevation of 14000 feet; no doubt it is also known as the ‘Roof of the World’. It breathes solitarily amidst the shadow of the greater Himalaya and the Kulun Mountains, occasionally interrupted by enormous snow capped peaks and high plateaus.

Topography
Regardless, the topography is variegated throughout Tibet with fertile valleys of rhododendron, pine forests and spectacular valleys and lakes. This country of monks, monasteries and mysteries settles itself within an area of 1.2 million sq.km inhabiting 2.3 million people.

Culture
The country imparts spirituality, Buddhism and mysticism. The Tibetan culture believes in the philosophy of simple and serene living with a pure heart and a calm mind.

Accessibility
In the earlier days Lhasa was basically inaccessible considering the folks love for isolation, but now things have changed. You can directly fly to Lhasa from Kathmandu. The flight takes off from Kathmandu and turns north towards giant snow peaks making its way through the eastern Himalayas as far as the Mount Everest and finally lands at Gonggar Airport situated 85 km from Lhasa. But journeying Tibet isn’t a child’s play; the journey is incredible with thrilling encounters and unpredictable circumstances. It unfolds the incomprehensible charm of the ancient Tibetan civilization and centuries old caravans. Exploring Tibet is a timeless experience of the flow which shall linger not less than a lifetime.
