The Historical Dege Kingdom |
 |
Few places in the Tibetan frontier have historically been as "cosmopolitan" as the Mili region. A vortex of the frontier melting pot, Tibetans live alongside ethnic groups such as the Yi, the Naxi, the Bai, Moso, and, more recently, Han Chinese. This trip offers insight into an astonishing micro-variation of the Tibetan world. It walks the visitor through a multi-ethnic corridor, where various cultural realms have traditionally overlapped. |

Among Khampa Cowboys |
|
Travelling overland we traverse the vibrant cultural and economic centres of Kham, separated by spectacular valleys and gorges created by Asia's mightiest rivers - the Mekong, the Salween and the Yangtze.Combining the tour with day-hikes, we camp in the vast grasslands alongside nomads and herdsmen. In the evenings, around a campfire, we listen to the tales of the Khampa cowboys. This trip captures the spirit of the Wild East. |

This is a tour around one of the most intriguing cultural variants of the Tibetan world. In Gyalthang are found customs and dialects no longer existing in other Tibetan areas, influenced by the surrounding multi-ethnic potpourri even as they influence those in turn. One of the world’s richest hotspots of biodiversity, the Gyalthang region's cultural and natural sights are a delightful surprise for the first-time and experienced Tibet traveler alike. 
mdo gave Tibet some of its most revered figures, including the 14th Dalai Lama, the late Panchen Lama, and Tsongkhapa, founder of the Gelugpa school of Tibetan Buddhism.This trip starts in Lanzhou (Gansu). Traversing the expansive grasslands of Amdo, we travel through Labrang and Kumbum, two of the largest Gelug monasteries anywhere, and major centers of Buddhist scholarship and art.
