Reasons to Visit Tibet

  • Monasteries

    Scattered across the country the Tibetan monasteries which survived the Chinese invasion are colourful and often breathtaking, in remote locations and dating back many hundreds of years.

    Monasteries

  • Remote wilderness

    On top of a mountain, thousands of metres above sea level, one can look out over arching peaks and open plains and not see another being for miles, save for the occasional yak herder.

  • The Lhasa Express

    One of the world's truly great rail journeys, this tremendous feat of engineering enables the visitor to travel from Beijing to Lhasa on a stunning two night journey across the Tibetan Plateau.

  • Tibetan Buddhism

    Fluttering prayer flags atop mountains, smoky incense and the rich clang of prayer bowls are synonymous with Tibetan Buddhism. The religion has a rich yet troubled history with the current Dalai Lama living in exile.

  • Views & scenery

    Breathtaking scenery awaits those who venture beyond the capital, including the Himalayan mountain range and base camp at Everest. Add to this ice blue lakes, yak-herding nomads and glaciers for a truly spectacular scenic journey.
