Discover Lhasa and let the culture and spirituality of Tibet enchant you! In only five days you'll have the chance to visit the capital city of Tibet with its world famous landmarks and the "great three" Gelugpa monasteries of Tibet: Drepung, Sera and Ganden. Located at an altitude of 3800 metres, Ganden Monastery lies in a natural amphitheatre, offering dramatic views over the Kyi-Chu Valley to pilgrims and travellers.
You're warmly welcome to Tibet: 'Tashi Delek'! Get picked up at the airport or the train station and driven to your hotel in Lhasa. Here you can rest to acclimatize to the high altitude for the rest of the day. In the evening you're invited to a Tibetan style dinner!
In the morning we'll visit the famous Potala Palace and explore its stunning chapels. Residence of the Dalai Lamas until the 1959 Tibetan uprising, it's now a museum and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its magnificence and architectural wonder will leave you breathless. In the afternoon we'll visit the spiritual
heart of Tibet, Johkang Temple, and its surrounding kora, Barkhor. Here traditional Tibetan products and souvenirs can be bought.
