Spring Autumn Summer WinterTRIP OVERVIEW
Mt. Kailash, the Hindu god Shiva's temple, is one of the world's most important pilgrimage sites, drawing Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, and others from all over the world. The spectacular majesty of this sacred mountain and the holy lake of Mansarover, as well as the remnants of the Guge Kingdom from the 9th century in Far Western Tibet, are a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. TIBET, also popularly known as The Roof of the World, has enthralled humanity for ages. This place beyond the great Himalayas, on the world's highest plateau, was unreachable to the outside world and has always presented a unique challenge to all mortal beings: Tibet is a land of magnificent skylines, majestic mountain peaks, breathtaking gorges, tranquil high-land lakes, rolling meadows and farmlands, and virgin forests.
It's also home to centuries-old caravan routes, artistic monasteries, and historical Buddhist culture. It has the world's highest snow-covered mountains and barren plains. Mount Everest, the world's highest peak, stands in southern Tibet. With an altitude of more than 15,000 feet (4,570 meters) above sea level, Ka-erh in western Tibet is thought to be the world's highest settlement.
