Nepal Tibet & Butan Trip

Nepal

Among the many tourist adventure activities in Nepal, Trekking is by far the most Popular. The Diversity in Nepal’s nature and a range of exotic culture makes this country ideal for trekking. Trekking in Nepal provides an opportunity to observe the local culture of the people and enjoy the beauty of nature undisturbed by the influence of modernity. One can choose between fully organized trekking and independent trekking.

Depending on the situation. Fully organized trekking costs comparatively higher and has a fixed itinerary.
However, Trekkers have their own staffs and can even visit remote regions that have no teahouse infrastructure, when trekking is done in organized group. Independent or teahouse trekking on the other hand is suitable for small groups wanting to visit the more popular areas that have a good network of teahouse.

Tibet

This is a good tour option for travellers who would rather travel in Tibet independently. Due to Chinese regulations, travellers must join an organized tour to Lhasa, but from Lhasa onward, you can travel on your own. Our Company can obtain a visa valid for 16 days only. So, after 16 days, travellers must travel onward to mainland China or return back to Kathmandu. Both overland travel and air travel options are available for you to travel onward from Lhasa.

This tour takes you to Lhasa via the friendship highway (Kathmandu – Lhasa highway). On the way,
we visit Sakya Monastery, Shigatse, Shalu Monastery and Gyantse. You will spend two-days on a guided sightseeing tour in Lhasa that covers all the historical monuments. From Day 8th, you are free to travel on your own.

Bhutan

This short tour gives the visitor an introduction to Bhutan, with a chance to see parts of the fertile Paro Valley, as well as Thimphu, Bhutan’s capital.

Most visitors to Bhutan begin their tour at Paro, because it is the site of the country’s only airport. The Paro Valley was the seat of power in western Bhutan during the nineteenth century, and Paro’s large dzong ( A dzong is a distinctive type of fortress architecture found in the former and present Buddhist kingdoms of the Himalayas, most notably Bhutan. ) testifies to the former importance of this area. The courtyard of
the dzong has several colourful frescoes, including one of the Mystic Spiral, which are symbolic renderings of the cosmos and the earth’s infinitesimal place within it. Inside the dzong is a large room known as the Hall of a Thousand Buddhas, which was the original venue of the National Assembly, before it was re-located to Thimphu. On a hill to the east above Paro Dzong stands its former watchtower, the unusually round-shaped Ta Dzong, which is now the home of the Bhutan National Museum.

Moving to Thimphu, the capital, you will see that it has a preponderance of buildings constructed since 1960. At first an attempt was made to build verything in traditional Bhutanese style – with dove-tailed joints and no nails – but then practicality outstripped aesthetics and less and less old-style architecture was used.

You will have a chance to spend your ngultrims (the Bhutanese currency has the same value as the Indian rupee) on a souvenir of local hand-woven textiles, before looking round the Tashichho Dzong, the second largest dzong in Bhutan, which houses the National Assembly Hall, the quarters of Je Khempo (the kingdom’s Lord Abbot) and a school for young monks.

Six miles east of Thimphu is Simtokha Dzong, the oldest dzong in the country, which was built in the 1600s with the purpose of guarding the entire valley.

High above Thimphu to the west is Phajoding Monastery, with many tall white prayer flags fluttering in a ring above the temple complex.
