Kathmandu to Lhasa - One of the Best Short Overland Journeys in the World

Posted by Group Tibet Tour on January 5th, 2018

For quite a while I had for the longest time been itching to go to Tibet. In any case, it's one of those spots you hear such a great amount about and it appears there is so much formality in arriving, it's very hard! It doesn't need to be that way, for me when I got around to it; it was a basic matter of booking an overland visit from Kathmandu! It was very simple and what took after for extraordinary compared to other 14 day overland excursions I have ever had.

Obviously as with all movement there are the hardships...the cool, the height, the breeze, a spot of nourishment harming and the extend periods of time of driving. You must be readied, bring a lot of warm garments, drink heaps of water and take things simple to enable your body to adapt. Go with some great companions or take in a touch of the neighborhood dialect to help facilitate the fatigue of hours in Tibet cycling tour. It additionally is going with a decent visit organization who don't attempt and cover excessively remove in one day and permit you a lot of time to take in the stunning scene, stop when you need to take photographs, converse with local people and figure out the genuine Tibet, not the Chinese impression most travel organizations need to give you.

Most towns have a Monastery and post which still stay as heavenly confirmations of design. Set aside a few minutes out and wander inside a religious community, visit the supplication lobbies and tune in to the priests droning, see the kitchens where huge vats of spread tea and tsampa (ground grain) are set up for the priests and meander around the spots to see noteworthy Thangka works of art, consuming margarine lights and gold plated statues.

Before Lhasa we passed the amazing Yam Druk Tso (Lake) its emerald waters sparkling under the ever blue sky. From the statures of a 5500 meter street pass we looked down one path to the lake and the other to the valley that hosts Lhasa. Here is additionally a decent place to ride a yak, however far excessively icy for a latrine break so ensure you pee at bring down elevation, else you'll be snapping icicles off!!

Most visits end in Lhasa, and that itself is a great city. The Potala Palace, Jhokart and Bharkor Square are altogether should see, in the event that you have time wander promote away from home to Gandan and Sera Monasteries (not regularly incorporated into generally visits). The visit finished with a trans-Himalayan flight once again from Lhasa to Kathmandu, snatch a seat by the window for this Himalayan devour for your eyes as the you fly over the snow topped mountains!

When searching for your visit, be cautious, inquire as to whether they run the visit themselves of subcontract it out to a Chinese administrator (most do) get references and shop around. Attempt and book with an operator that utilizations Tibetan Guides, Hotels, Transport organizations and eateries, that way you will show signs of improvement feel for Tibetan culture and Buddhism.
