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!

The diet of the people on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is mainly red meat, butter and zanba due to its unique natural conditions.

Tibetans, whose tastes are similar with people's in China' southwest Sichuan Province, love chilis. Tibetan bean jelly with chili is one of their favorite snacks. Bean jelly is made from amylum which needs to be melted with heat and then refrigerated. People usually like adding some condiments such as salt, chili and monosodium glutamate to make it taste better.

Ginseng fruit is the specialty of Lhasa. Mostly being heart-shaped and oval-shaped, the fruit has high protein, low sugar and low fat, and rich in Vitamin C.
