Tibet is renowned for its high mountains, stunning lakes, and awesome Buddhist monasteries. It is also well known for the unique culture of the Tibetan people, where Tibetan Buddhism is a major part of their everyday lives. And for anyone, esp. to cultural explorers, planning a trip to Tibet to explore the amazing culture, there are some things that you should never miss experiencing whilst in Tibet.<\/p>\r\n
In Tibet, sweet milky tea is one of the most popular beverages you can find. Every Tibetan drinks tea, and the teahouse culture of Tibet has become a major cultural experience. And these teahouses are much more than just somewhere to get a cup of tea. Along with the usual sweet Tibetan tea, the teahouse in Tibet is just as well known for the social aspects as well.<\/p>\r\n
For a Tibetan, especially those in the capital, a visit to the teahouse<\/a> is like visiting the coffee shops in the western world. Students come to chat and study, groups of younger people come in to play games of dice and chance, and the elderly gather to discuss family issues and other topics as they enjoy their sweet tea. You can even find Tibetan Buddhist monks and lamas enjoying tea in the teahouses, some even still meditating over their tea with prayer wheels in hand.<\/p>\r\n There are a huge number of teahouses in Lhasa, the Tibetan capital, and for anyone wanting to experience this unique cultural delight, there is nowhere better. One of the most unusual is the Tsamkhung Nunnery teahouse (also known as the Canggu Nunnery), which is located inside a peaceful Buddhist nunnery in Lhasa. Though built in the downtown area, the teahouse of Tsamkhaung Nunnery offers you a nice and quiet place from hustle and bustle of the Barkhor Street and the nuns work daily providing tea to help fund the nunnery.<\/p>\r\n The Guangming Sweet Tea House is located near Barkhor Street, and is renowned as the most famous teahouse in Lhasa.

These short pilgrimage journeys around holy sites are a ritual or ceremony to the gods, and are an integral part of the life of all Tibetan Buddhists. - Check the top six kora routes in Tibet<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\r\n The literal meaning of the word kora comes from the Tibetan word, “skor ra”, which translates as meaning \"circumambulation\" or \"revolution\". The practice of performing kora pilgrimage comes from the introduction of Buddhism in Tibet in the 7th century.<\/p>\r\n Each step taken on a kora walk is meant to move the pilgrim further along the path towards enlightenment, the aim of all living beings in Buddhism.

The route around the temple has prayer wheels at certain locations along Barkhor Street, for the pilgrims to spin and pray with as they walk.<\/p>\r\n A Nangma Hall is a Tibetan dance hall, many of which can be found in different locations around Lhasa and across Tibet. Often also called Langma, these halls are the Tibetan equivalent of the disco or nightclub, and are a popular place to spend an evening in Lhasa. These dance halls and nightclubs can be found all over Lhasa, and the name “Nangma” has even been used as the name of one of Tibet’s popular traditional Tibetan bands.<\/p>\r\n One of the traditional styles of music and dance in Tibet, Nangma is the more common type of show, while the classical Tibetan operas are normally only performed at festivals and events. - Find out how our clients enjoy the Nangma Hall in Lhasa<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\r\n The traditional Nangma Halls in Tibet offer a great evening’s entertainment in a traditional Tibetan style, including folk dances, modern dancing, and even something good to eat.

Hiking through some of the most amazing landscapes in the world, you can choose from taking the challenging trek around Mount Kailash to something a little gentler, as the mild trek from Shalu to Nartang. There is a trek for everyone in Tibet, but if you are having trouble choosing one for yourself for your first Tibetan trek, our experts can help match your interest with the most suitable trek for you.<\/p>\r\n Notably one of the easiest treks in Tibet, and one of the few that are suitable for families, the three-day trek from Shalu Monastery to Nartang Monastery<\/a> is perfect for a first-timer to high-altitude trekking. The gentler days of hiking and the shorter route makes this more family-oriented than other treks, though it does reach altitudes of up to 5,000 meters.<\/p>\r\n Route: Shalu Monastery - Upper Lungsang - Ngor Monastery - Nartang Monastery If it is your first time to tackle a trek in Tibet, or you have a family bond when trekking with your kids, then this is the ideal trek for you. While it may reach high altitudes, the trekking is gentler and easier to manage, with a gradual climb up to the highest points of the hike.<\/p>\r\n The trek, while short, does visit several exciting sites of cultural importance in Tibet, including Upper Lungsang (4,060m), the Ripu Hermitage, the Show-La Pass, Char-la Pass (4,550m), Ngor Village, and the Sanskrit library at Ngor Monastery. Over the course of three days trekking, you will pass through several small Tibetan communities, cross the crests of at least two high passes, and get to tour around three stunning small monasteries in remote locations.<\/p>\r\n As well as being a great family trek, this unique hike between monasteries is actually a good opportunity for those that are interested in the typical Tibetan Buddhist culture. The only way to visit to the Ngor Monastery, with its unique Sanskrit library and unusual Newari murals from Nepal, this hike can give you a unique insight into the shared history of Tibet and Nepal.<\/p>\r\n Regarded in hiking circles to be one of the best high-altitude treks in the world, the trek from Ganden Monastery in Lhasa to Samye Monastery<\/a> in Lhoka is an amazing experience. Following an ancient pilgrimage trail between two of Tibet’s most culturally and historically important monasteries, the trek is also one of the most scenic hikes in Tibet.<\/p>\r\n Route: Ganden Monastery - Yama Do - Tsotuo-chu Valley - Chitu-la Pass - Samye Monastery
