For centuries Tibet Has exercised
a powerful pull over the Western World. Closed to foreigners
until a few years ago it has always been a country apart
as rarefied as its air as it individualistic and intangible
as it only geographic Location and a determined policy of
isolation Permit. Landlocked behind almost Impenetrable
Himalayan Karakoram, Kunlum Ranges, th eland of the snow
lies mostly above 3500 Meters, its height above sea level
Comparable only to Bolivia. It is one of the most sparsely
populated places on earth, Tibet is a land of dramatic landscapes,
sacred relics, butter lamp, illuminated temples and Monasteries
and deeply religious resilient, immensely likeable people.
It has something to offer every traveler, from Lhasa, Potala
palace, to the Jokhang Temple spiritual center of Tibet,
and Drepung Monastery of the 20000 plus monasteries once
biggest and Richest, from Tibet own valley of the King's
to Lhamo Latso oracle lake, whose waters revealed clues
which led to the identification of the 14th Dalai Lama,
and Holy Mount Kailash and Lake Manasarovar. It is place
of Sky burials the indispensable yak and life sustaining
salted butter tea, from which visitors will retain memories
to last a life time.
