Overland Tour To Guge |
 |
|
The route
leads through a magnificent mountain area, past many
Tibetan villages. The tour offers you spectacular
landscape of Tibet and takes you sacred Mt. Kailash,
which Hindus and Buddhists view as the "center of
the world". The mighty rock dome of Kailash comes
closer. Together with pilgrims from far and wide you
follow the trail (Parikrama) across the Dolma La
(5600m), which is adorned with countless prayer
flags. It takes three days to circumambulate the
snow-covered cupola of the 6714m tall mountain. In
Tibetan tradition you will conclude this pilgrimage
in Tirthapuri - which is one of the most important
pilgrim destinations along with Kailash and Lake
Manasarover.
Almost surreal appears the canyon-like valley of the
Sutlej. Imbedded lie the ruins of Tsaparang, the
capital of the former kingdom of Guge. After
visiting the 900 year-old site our drive through the
canyon of the Sutlej starts long the north route to
Lhasa. The light and shadows of the summer clouds
make for a magical atmosphere, dip the barren
vastness in tinges of pastel green, yellow deep blue
and violet. En route, we visit two of the most
sacred temples of Tibet: Tshilunpo in Shigatse and
Kumbum in Gyantse. In Lhasa, the spiritual and
secular center Tibet's, visited by many pilgrims
from all over the country. |
