Lhasa and the Valley of the Kings – Fly In / Fly Out

Lhasa literally means “Place of the gods”. Historical records shows the importance of Lhasa as on the process of conquering Tibet, the fifth Dalai Lama, Lobsang Gyatso (1617–1682), shifted the centre of his administration to Lhasa, which thereafter became both the religious and political capital. Despite of the Chinese influence,

Lhasa remains a city of wonders. On the course of Touring one can find various temples and monasteries such as the Jokhang and the Drepung Monastery where one can soak up the atmosphere of the rich Buddhist culture. The famous Potala Palace major attraction of Lhasa should be listed on the must see places. Official museum of Tibet is situated in Lhasa only. One who longs to know detail information about Tibet has to visit this “Tibet Museum”. Lhasa would not disappoint its entertainment lover visitors. There are few night spots in Lhasa performing Tibetan dances in traditional attire. Besides, In few bars they feature live music where performers sing in English, Chinese, Tibetan, and Nepalese . Wild Yeti believes that Touring the graceful Lhasa will be of great value to remark as a lifetime experience.
