Nyingchi- Pomi- Lhasa- Shigatse-EBC 10-Day tour（Peach Flower Festival）

Welcome to Tibet! Your journey begins today as we arrive in Nyingchi-the first stop of our trip. Your tour guide will be waiting to greet you at the airport and escort you to Gala Peach Blossom Village—widely celebrated as “the No.1 Peach Blossom Village in Tibet.”

After exploring the charm of Gala, we continue toward Lulang. Along the way, our route carries us across the Segrila Pass and makes a stop at the Lulang Forest Viewing Platform for breathtaking views. You'll have a chance to enjoy distant views of Namcha Barwa from Segrila Pass (which depends on the weather). Designated as "China's Most Beautiful Mountain" by Chinese National Geography magazine, the sight of its snow-capped peak against the blue sky is truly unforgettable.

This morning, you begin with a visit to the mirror-like Guxiang Lake, where crystal-clear waters perfectly reflect the surrounding snow-capped peaks. The journey then continues to Bomi Peach Blossom Valley-one of China's largest peach blossom regions. Every spring, the valley turns into a living fairy tale, with soft pink petals set against snowy summits and emerald meadows.

After enjoying the blossoms, take a gentle forest hike through a destination honored by Chinese National Geography as one of “China's Ten Most Beautiful Forests.” Often described as a natural oxygen bar, the lush greenery, fresh air, and distant snow-covered peaks together create a uniquely serene and refreshing landscape.

Tonight, you will stay overnight in Gangyun Pine Forest, surrounded by the quiet beauty of nature.

After returning from the forest to Nyingchi, your journey continues toward Kading Valley - a dramatic canyon where cascading waterfalls plunge down sheer cliffs, filling the air with refreshing mist and echoing power. Leaving the roar of the waterfalls behind, the landscape softens as we arrive at the tranquil shores of Basomtso Lake. Surrounded by forested mountains and known for its crystal-clear waters, Basomtso feels like a peaceful hidden sanctuary.

In the evening, check into a lakeside hotel where you can unwind and enjoy quiet moments.

After breakfast, we begin our day at the sacred waters of Basomtso. Instead of stopping at the popular lake island, we'll take a boat across the tranquil surface to reach the hidden Fertility Cave on the far shore. From there, a gentle lakeside walk unfolds, where shimmering reflections meet forest shadows, creating scenes that feel painted by nature itself -serene, poetic, and deeply immersive.
With these final moments of peace beside Basomtso, we then set out on our journey back to Lhasa.

Begin your day with a visit to Potala Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the former winter residence of the Dalai Lama. As you climb its 365 steps, admire its grand halls, ancient murals, sacred Buddha statues, and breathtaking views over Lhasa.

Next, visit Jokhang Temple, Tibet's most sacred pilgrimage site, where the 12-year-old Shakyamuni Buddha statue is enshrined. Then, take a walk along Barkhor Street, a vibrant market where Tibetan pilgrims perform kora (ritual circumambulation), spinning prayer wheels as they walk.

Depart Lhasa and head towards Shigatse, stopping at two of Tibet's most spectacular natural wonders. Visit Yamdrok Lake, one of Tibet's three sacred lakes, renowned for its dazzling turquoise waters.

Continue to Karola Glacier, where the massive glacier tongue extends down towards the roadside like a frozen waterfall. Along the way, we will pass Lake Manla and the ancient town of Gyantse, before reaching Shigatse, the second-largest city in Tibet.

After breakfast, embark on a breathtaking journey toward Mount Everest, the world's highest peak. As we drive through highland landscapes, you'll stop at Gyawula Pass (5,198m) for a panoramic view of the Himalayan range, including Everest in the distance.   

By late afternoon, arrive at Everest Base Camp (EBC), where you'll witness the majestic north face of Everest. If weather permits, enjoy a stunning sunset over the mountain, a truly unforgettable sight.

(During winter, when EBC tented lodges are closed, accommodations will be arranged in Basong Village or Zhaxizong Village.)

Wake up early to witness the breathtaking sunrise over Everest, as the morning light slowly illuminates the icy peak. After breakfast, we will visit Rongbuk Monastery, the highest monastery in the world. This peaceful and remote monastery offers an unparalleled view of Everest, making it a perfect place for quiet contemplation.

After leaving Everest, we will drive to Xilin Viewpoint, where you can admire the stunning eastern face of Mount Everest and Mount Lhotse. The rugged mountain scenery here showcases the sheer power of nature, creating an unforgettable memory of your journey. We will then continue the drive back to Shigatse.

Today, you will visit Tashilhunpo Monastery, the largest monastery in western Tibet and the traditional seat of the Panchen Lama. This magnificent monastery is home to the world's largest gilded statue of Maitreya Buddha, as well as beautifully preserved Buddhist murals and ancient stupas of the Panchen Lamas.

After exploring the monastery, you will travel back to Lhasa, following the scenic route along the Yarlung Tsangpo River, one of Tibet's most important waterways. The journey offers breathtaking views of deep river valleys, traditional Tibetan villages, and terraced farmlands, giving you a deeper appreciation of the region's natural beauty. 

Your remarkable journey through Tibet is coming to an end. At the scheduled time, we will transfer you to the airport or train station for your departure.

Thank you for traveling with us. Wishing you a smooth journey ahead, and we look forward to welcoming you back to Tibet in the future!
