Only museum hotel in the world - Brahmaputra Grand Hotel

Reputed as the unique lodgeable "museum" in the world, the Brahmaputra Grand Hotel is ideally located in downtown Lhasa, capital of southwest China's Tibet Autonomous Region.

Adjacent to the beautiful Lhasa River, the luxury five-star hotel boasts a perfect combination of traditional Tibetan architectural style and modern decorative technologies.

The first museum-styled hotel in China covers an area of 30,000 square meters, themed with unique Tibetan cultural taste, making itself probably the only museum for accommodation in the world.

Stepping into the hotel, guests or tourists from across the world will have immediate and easy access to the charming Tibetan culture.

The golden lobby displays various types of religious statues, the twelve Tibetan zodiacs collected or made by the museum, and even a handmade copper Mandela of Chakrasamvara.

The affiliated Gangri Folk Custom Art Museum has a fine collection of nearly 10,000 cultural relics, artworks and folk utensils, catering to global tourists’ distinctive taste with rich ethnic cultural connotations.

The antiques fully show the fascinating Tibetan culture and the time-honored Tibetan history from different aspects including history, culture, art, religion and folk custom.

In addition, a number of ancient Tibetan Buddhism sutras are collected in the sutra pavilion as a religious halidom.

Not only an “ethnic musuem”, but also an art gallery, the hotel truly has many reasons to be so inviting.
