Travel Guide

Last fighting castle with England corps in the 19 centry. All tibetan died. All heros are being at present
Lama and monastery
Yarlung Tsangpo is highest river in world in Tibet. The Yarlung Tsangpo runs through the heartland of Tibet from west to east.
Elevation: 5560 meters (18,241 feet) About two hours away from Yamdrok Lake. It isn't a big glacier, but the white glacier is spectacular from the highway, and it is close enough (about 300 yards) to walk to from the highway.
Every once in a while, we come across landscapes that leave us breathless.

Gangtok

Housing three sects of Sakyapa, Kadampa and Gelugpa together, Palcho Monastery has a hard-won lenient tolerance amongst the Tibetan sects to balance them well. Therefore, the design and layout of the Monastery is a synthesis of the three sects to combine different structural Zhacangs (rooms for monks) enshrined deities and more integrated Tibetan Buddhist Culture.
