Enjoy The Wonderful Cultural Overland Tour To Tibet
A Cultural Overland Tour in Tibet offers a deeply immersive journey through the heart of the Tibetan Plateau, blending dramatic landscapes with centuries-old traditions. Starting from Kathmandu, travelers cross into Tibet via Kyirung, gradually ascending to iconic cultural hubs like Shigatse, Gyantse, and finally Lhasa. Along the route, you’ll explore ancient monasteries like Rongbuk near Everest Base Camp, Tashilhunpo Monastery (seat of the Panchen Lama), Kumbum Stupa, and Phalkor Monastery. The drive is equally enriching, featuring stops at Yamdrok Lake, high passes like Karo La and Kamba La, and the mighty Brahmaputra River.
The tour culminates in Lhasa, where you visit spiritual landmarks such as the Potala Palace, Jokhang Temple, and the monastic universities of Drepung and Sera. This route not only reveals Tibet’s vibrant culture but also provides a gradual altitude adjustment, making it ideal for acclimatization.
