We had a wonderful time in Tibet. We have learned a lot about this unique destination because of the wonderful guide Degyi who is so knowledge and always available towards our tours. We stayed at the Shangri-La Hotel Lhasa, and we would never imagine a Tibet travel could be so nice and amazing without the help of Degyi.

Also, thanks a lot to our Tibetan driver Mr.Wongdun for his safe driving and a good sense of service along the way.

We shall return Tibet in the near future!

Tibetan FestivalsTibetan festivals have been deeply influenced by Buddhism. They either have strong religious aroma or they are completely religious. Throughout history, under the harsh natural environment and hard working conditions, the people living on the snowy land yearned for a better life through their own efforts, with the God's mercy and with the Buddha's protection. It is the festivals that offer opportunities for them to express their prayer to deities, Buddha and nature, during which they amuse the Gods and themselves as well.

In summary, there are more than 100 major or minor festivals throughout a year. As long as you stay in Tibet for half month in any season, you will certainly to come across a festival there, and you will be amazed by festal revelry of the Tibetan people. Noticeably, though with more identification than variation or distinction, the 100 odd festivals mentioned above are not necessarily all celebrated in each place. It is the variation and the distinction that make the festivals splendid.

We have listed some of the major traditional festivals in Tibet below. Visit Tibetan festivals with Splendid China Tours!
