Ngari is located in the westernmost part of Tibet. The average altitude here is over 4,000 meters. The climate is harsh and the vegetation is scarce. Ngari was a poor and the least developed place in the past. Because of the incontinent transportation, the mysterious ancient Zhangzhung civilization, and the sacred snow-capped mountains and holy lakes, Ngari had long been a legend and a mysterious region.
Thanks to the advanced transport system, Ngari is now a place where people can reach easily by taking flights from Lhasa. Besides, going to Ngari via the overland is the most popular among tourists, as they can see numerous beautiful rivers and lakes along the way. In addition, this is also a wonderland for animals lovers, as there are many unique and rare animals living on this area.
Ngari is located at an high altitude, so we won’t arrange for tourists to go there right after they arrive at Tibet. And on the first week of the journey, tourists will stay and enjoy scenery in low-altitude places. By the time when they arrive at Ngari, they will have already adapted to the altitude of Tibet. And they can have a good time and enjoy a lot in this mysterious region.
