![]() Tibet Tour Packages
Tibet (Tibet Autonomous Region, TAR for short) borders India, Burma, Bhutan, Sikkim, and Nepal. Covering a massive 1,220,000 square kilometres (470, 920 square miles), the plateau is surrounded by the highest mountain ranges, the Himalaya to the south, the Karakoram to the west, and the Kunlun to the north. Smaller mountain ranges block it off in the east with internal provinces of China. With an average height of 4,000 meters above sea level, Tibet encompasses some of the world's highest mountains. Mt. Everest towers over the region. Four mountains exceed altitudes of 8,000 meters (26,240 feet). Thirty-eight mountains exceed altitudes of 7,000 meters (22,960 feet). This "Roof of the World" is the dreamland of mountaineers and adventurers. The vast land is also the cradle of great rivers like the Yangtze, Yellow River, Nu River (Salween), Lancang River (Mekong), Yarlong Tsangpo (Brahmaputra), Indus, and Ganges. Tibet also offers awe-inspiring scenery of heavenly lakes and valleys. Singa China Travel Service Pte Ltd offers tour packages to Tibet. Click on the following for more details: |
