Region: Tibet

Tibet, known as the 'Roof of the World', is a mystical and awe-inspiring region located on the Tibetan plateau at more than 4,000 meters above sea level. Its capital, Lhasa, is the spiritual heart of Tibetan Buddhism and home to the iconic Potala Palace and Jokhang Temple. The region stands out for its extreme geographical contrasts: sacred lakes with turquoise waters in front of ancient glaciers; snowy mountain passes in front of the highest peaks on the planet, such as Mount Everest; and the silent devotion of its temples compared to the vibrant life of the nomadic camps. It is a destination to visit with respect, acclimatizing to its altitude, discovering its Buddhist philosophy and contemplating landscapes that seem from another planet.

Tips for Adventure

Aviso de Viaje

Foreign travelers necessarily require a special permit (Tibet Travel Permit - TTB) managed through an authorized agency, in addition to a visa for China, and must always travel accompanied by an official guide. Acute mountain sickness (soroche) is the greatest risk due to altitude (over 3,650 m in Lhasa); It is recommended to ascend gradually, rest for the first 24-48 hours, hydrate well and consult a doctor before the trip. Please note that the region may temporarily close to international tourism during certain weeks in February and March for administrative reasons.
