Walk the three-day kora around Mount Kailash, explore the Guge ruins and return across Tibet's northern lakes to Namtso on a small-group trip. Two weeks through Tibet's far west, by one road out and another back. After Lhasa and Shigatse, two long days across the plateau bring you to Lake Manasarovar and Darchen, the start of the kora around Mount Kailash, sacred to four religions. The walk takes three days: about 40 km in total, crossing the Drolma La at 5,630 meters on the second day, with two nights in basic pilgrim guesthouses. You then drive into the canyons of Zanda for the ruins of the Guge Kingdom and two earth forests. The return crosses the Changtang, Tibet's high northern plateau, past a chain of lakes that few travelers ever see: salt lakes near Shiquanhe, Dangra Yumtso, holy to the Bon religion, and the inland sea of Serling Tso. The trip ends at Namtso's Tashi Dor peninsula and Lhasa. This route does not visit Everest Base Camp.

Embark on a visually striking journey through the contested streets of Lhasa. This is more than a historical walk: trace the city's transformation from incense-filled alleys in the old Tibetan quarter to the neon and concrete grids of modern Chinese boulevards. Discover how urban planning, architecture and public space can serve both cultural preservation and state control, and learn to read widened avenues, new shopping centers and ancient landmarks as parts of an unresolved story. - A 4.0 km self-guided tour with 6 stops over 113 min - Ideal for travelers interested in Urbanism, Infrastructure & Innovation and Identity, Migration & Globalization - Immersively told in a podcast style by experts and locals - Matching audio content, AI guide and navigation through the app
