Tibets' isolation and remoteness has for continually given it a unique flavor, which has intrigued visitors from mountaineers to royalty. Tibet offers the visitor a unique combination of pristine mountain scenery and ancient medieval culture.
It is a land whose deep belief in Buddhism has permeated every aspect of society – giving these hardy mountain people a calm, surreal dignity which masks their daily hardships.
Re-opened to tourism in 1980, much of Tibets cultural treasures were destroyed during the Cultural Revolution. But the peoples resilience has given way to the rebuilding of their many monasteries and monuments.
Tibet is an incredible land of mystique, cultural heritage and beauty. Forbidden not only by man, but also by nature, it has continued to fascinate travellers for centuries. |
