Mount Kailash Via Lhasa |
|
An hours flight from Kathmandu,
flying over the mighty backbone of the
Himalayas, we land in the heart of the Tibetan
Plateau before a two hour drive by land cruiser
to Lhasa. A few days are spent in Lhasa soaking
up the atmosphere and visiting the many sights
of historical interest before commencing our
overland trip to Sangsang via Gyantse, Shigatse
and Sakya. From Sangsang we have a choice of
either the Northern or Southern highway to Mt.
Kailash returning on the other route. This
pilgrimage takes 19 to 26 days. Depending on
group requirements. |
