The crown jewel of our Lhasa tour is the memorable cultural, religious,
and historical tour of the ancient city of Lhasa, the capital of Tibet. Situated in the middle of the Tibetan
Plateau and lying in the encompassed river valley in between the Himalayas, Lhasa sits at an altitude of about 3,660
meters (11,450 ft.) making it the highest city in the world and thus justifying its age old title of the “roof of
the world.” The semi-arid climate of the region due to its position in the rain shadow of the Himalayas and yet the
fertile river valley of Lhasa forms a contrasting natural beauty in lush green farms between the arid rocky
landscape and snow capped mountains.
The cultural and religious tradition of the Tibetan people that dates back to antiquity
is still preserved in Lhasa. The Potala Palace dating back to the 7th century is an architectural masterpiece that was
once the political and religious center of Tibet. Literally meaning “place of the gods,” Lhasa and the lives of its
inhabitants is highly influenced by Buddhism which lends a serene aura to the city.
The Tibet tour and the Lhasa tour is one of the most enriching and fulfilling
experience for any traveler. The ancient kingdom and its cities, the unforgiving yet beautiful landscape and the age
old trade routes that stand as a testament to the old forgotten civilizations, the virtually unchanged way of life
of the people and the mysterious spirituality of the land has an enchanting way that you have to be lucky and
willing to experience to believe. If all these seem unbelievable, I dare anyone to prove me wrong.
