Chengdu to Lhasa Tour - 19 Days
This tour constitutes a grand traverse of East Tibet, crossing the the mighty river gorges of Gyarong, Yalong, Yangtze, Mekong, Salween and Bramhapura. It encompasses the length and breath of Kham, Derge, Chamdo, Tengchen, Bachen, Nagchu and Lhasa districts, all areas very little known by Westerners. In this itinerary we start our great overland adventure from Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan Province.
After Ya-an, the flat eastern Tibet landscape gives way to undulating foothills at Kangding, the former capital of Chakla Kingdom and a tea distribution center. We continue through Tawu to Gerge, and up to and across Jape-la at an elevation of 4,680 meters to Chamdo, the gateway to Lhasa.
