This 4-night, 5-day fly-in/fly-out Lhasa Tour is a popular choice for visiting Tibet. Lhasa, the capital of the Tibet Autonomous Region, boasts a history spanning over 1,300 years and sits at an altitude of 3,650 meters. The city is a center of politics, economy, culture, and religion in Tibet, home to ancient monasteries and temples preserving historical relics, Buddhist scriptures, and traditional arts. With over two million residents, Lhasa offers rich natural beauty, spiritual traditions, and breathtaking landscapes. Lhasa connects internationally only to Nepal (Tribhuvan International Airport, Kathmandu) via Air China, with three weekly flights from May to September. The tour begins with a scenic one-hour flight from Kathmandu to Lhasa, offering stunning mountain views. Upon arrival, our representative will transfer you to your hotel. The following days include exploring iconic landmarks such as Potala Palace, Norbulingka Monastery, Sera Monastery, Jokhang Temple, and the vibrant Barkhor Streets.
