TIBET COMPREHENSIVE ( NAGGU TIBET) |
This trip combines the
big centers of Tibetan culture: the east
Tibetan province Amdo and Central Tibet
with Lhasa.You will fly to Lanzhou, the
capital of the Chinese province of Gansu,
via Beijing. Start your trip to the
magnificent Monasteries of Labrang and
Kumbum. Then it's by train past Koko Nor
Lake to Golmud.
After traversing the source of the
Yangtse river a spectacular landscape
awaits you: white gigantic peaks are
mirrored in small lakes and on the vast
plains tents of the kailash tours with their
yak herds can be seen. A side trip to
the holy Lake Namtso, the highest salt
lake in Tibet at an altitude of 4600m
follows.
From far away the golden roofs of the
Potala are visible. Plenty of time is
available to discover the once forbidden
city of the Tibetan god kings. Later
visit the oldest monastery Samye,
located in the midst of sand dunes not
far from the Tsangpo River. An
exhilarating drive brings you to Lake
Yamdrok, Palkor Monastery in Gyantse,
Shalu and Tashilunpo in Shigatse. Savor
stupendous views on your ride across the
Tibetan plateau to Katmandu in Nepal.
Two high passes of over 5000m have to be
crossed. |
