This
tour starts in Lhasa, the sacred city and capital
of Tibet, where we will explore its great palaces,
monasteries and temples. We drive to Ganden
Monastery and start 4-day trek over the Tibetan
mountains to Samye, the first and holiest monastery
of Tibet. The trek through highland yak pastures
and over Shugu La pass (5200m/17000ft) takes
us to a sacred mountain where many great Buddhist
saints and teachers meditated, including Guru
Padmasambhava, the founder of Tibetan Buddhism.
The breathtaking views of the snow-capped peaks
as well as the views of Tibetan countryside
will make the journey an unforgettable one.
Witness Buddhist prayer ceremonies, visit the
homes of local Tibetans and observe religious
customs to help understand the Tibetan religion
and life. Once in the Yarlung valley we visit
the impressive Yambu Lakang and the tombs of
the ancient Tibetan Kings. A wonderful journey
to the heart and soul of Tibet.
