The spiritual home of the Dalai Lama and the land of Mt Everest, Tibet is a larger than life destination. Whether you spend a night at the world’s highest monastery or scrub away a lifetime of sins by walking the circuit of Mt Kailash, there is no doubt it is also a spiritual, sacred destination that remains untouched by modern times. It is a beautiful land of turquoise lakes and snowy peaks where wind-torn prayer flags flutter from roofs of whitewashed brick and mud homes and monks in saffron robes chant mantras in ancient mountain monasteries.
