TIBET
Tibet is land like no other. The majority of its land rests above 4000
meters (13,000 feet) and is surrounded by mountain ranges on three sides. It
is a place for the rugged adventurer as well as the spiritual wanderer.
Referred as the last Shangri La, The Roof of the World and by many more, and
Tibet is certainly a place worth visiting in a lifetime.
After centuries of virtual isolation Tibet is cautiously opening up to the
western world. Officially, China has opened the doors for travelers since
the last few years only. Traveling in Tibet gives an incredible experience,
although it is not for the faint-hearted. The traveling is difficult and
unpredictable. The infrastructure is poor to non-existent.
But you will have the time of your life and build unforgettable memories while on this trip!
