East Tibet 2 - Kham
Tibet tours main page

The 25-day East Tibet option includes all the highlights of Kham around Derge, the cultural center of East Tibet, the Derge Gompa being the key point of interest. We visit high nomadic pasturelands, the temple complex at  Dzogchen, the magnificent sacred lake of Yilhun Lhatso, fortress-style monastery of Palpung, the 13th century Sakya-sect monastery of Baiya and in Mesho the Pema Shelpuk cave. Kham is a goldmine of cultural treasures, stunning landscape and very little known and even much less traveled by the Westerners.
