Lhasa

Lhasa is the capital of the Tibet Autonomous Region. Tibet, also called the Roof of the World, is a mystical highland with an ancient religious culture, heart-stopping natural scenery and various traditional customs. A holy and marvelous place, Lhasa is incredible for its high 'wow!' factor.
Tips:
Minority areas (Xinjiang, Yunnan, Tibet and Guizhou) have unique characters, but generally speaking, accommodation and meals in these areas are comparatively simple. What we recommend are the best available hotels and restaurants. Because of limited choices, tourists may find hotel facilities are not very good, especially basic breakfast and lower service level. Tourists should come with lower expectations.
