Tibet
Tibet remains a realm of mystery and spiritual intrigue, boasting ancient Buddhist traditions, breathtaking landscapes, and cultural riches. Kathmandu stands as the gateway to this enigmatic land, once a pivotal stop along the historic India-Tibet trade route. Modern transport links connect Kathmandu to Lhasa, the capital of the Tibetan Autonomous Region of China, offering travelers the choice between scenic overland routes and exhilarating flights over the Himalayas. The one-hour flight from Kathmandu to Lhasa provides awe-inspiring views of the Himalayan range before landing at Gonggar Airport, just 85 km from Lhasa.
