Tibet
enjoys fame as "The Roof top
of the World" - and the road
from Yunnan to Lhasa is the
toughest road in the world,
offering surprising views and
varied ethnic cultures along the
way. This trip covers the
'must-sees' in northwest Yunnan
and southeast Tibet. You will find
out different distincting cultures
and religions on this trip. The
ancient Tea Horse Road of this
area was once busy in transporting
goods to Tibet and India from
China. Discover and experience the
fabulous culture diversity and
real Shangri-La. If Tibet is the
untouched area of the world, the
eastern part of Tibet, bordering
Yunnan Province, is the untouched
area of Tibet. Decorated with
virgin forests and crystal blue
lakes, this formerly most
inaccessible route offers
spectacular scenery as well as an
opportunity to come in contact
with primary village cultures of
Yunnan and Tibet. This journey is
one of those least traveled routes
into Tibet, starting with rich
cultural encounters in the
non-Tibetan Himalayas, cycling
through the breathtaking great
gorges and rivers, finally reach
Lhasa, the holy capital of Tibet.
The long and winding ride on
unpaved roads is very challenging
and sometimes can be dangerous,
but this will be a unforgettable
once in your life journey.
