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!

Day02 Kunming (B)
The Spring City Lakes Course is scheduled to host your party today. This spectacular 18-hole golf course by Robert Trent Jones is set on the banks of the Yang Zonghai Lake and is world renowned for its narrow fairways; crisscrossing trenches; strong winds; terraced greens and breathtaking lake views. Coupled with Robert Trent Jones Jr.'s renowned quest for accuracy, and with each of its 18 holes facing the lake, the terraced course presents spectacular views and exciting challenges to golfers. Golfers are also required to constantly take into account the winds which introduce an additional degree of difficulty and excitement to the game.
Day03 Kunming (B)
Golf today will be at the Spring City Mountain Course. The 18-hole Mountain Course is set on high ground overlooking the Yang Zonghai Lake. This offers spectacular views of the soothing lake and the impressive verdant hills. Golfers will find the view both inspiring and soothing while they allow the challenging course to test their skills and bring out their best game. With bunkers strategically placed on fairways and around the greens, and deceptive bent grass greens that will test even experienced players, the Mountain Course reaffirms Jack Nicklaus as one of the greatest - if not the greatest - players and course designers of all time.
Day04 Kunming (B, L)
You will head out Kunming to explore the spectacular Stone Forest, a wonder of geology. About 200 million year ago the earth's crust shifted and forced the 200 acres of karst limestone stalagmites rise up from what was once a huge expanse of water. Paths wind through its spectacular valleys and around the weird rock formations and its reflecting pools. There are pavilions perched high on these pillars that offer sweeping views. Since the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), Stone Forest has long been one of the most famous scenic spots in China. After that you will get back town for the Golden Temple, located on top of Mingfeng (Singing Phoenix) Hill. It is the largest copper temple in China and also known as the Tongwa Temple (Bronze Tile Temple). At Huating Temple you could get a nice view to the Dianchi Lake.
