Unique Adventure International presents this package to experience the real taste of Tibetan highland adventure and an insight into Tibetan Buddhism. All travelers interspersed in excursions to ancient monasteries will be enchanted during this trip. The trek goes through the rugged Tibetan terrain, arid topography resembling a lunar surface to the colorful ancient villages dancing with prayer flags and dwelled by magnificent monasteries.
The trail connects the two major monasteries of Tibetan Buddhism – Ganden and Samye. Ganden, the first Monastery of Gelugpa sect is 45 km away to the east of Lhasa. It was built by Tsongkhapa. The monastery is renowned as one of the vital and biggest Gelugpa monasteries in Tibet.
