Amazon.com Review
Victor Chan has covered 42,000 kilometers in Tibet by foot, truck, bus, horse, yak, and coracle. His book includes an introductory course to spoken Tibetan, essays on Tibetan Buddhism and concepts of pilgrimage and art, and practical travel information, plus itineraries to such destinations as the 7th-century burial grounds in the Valley of the Kings at Chougye and the long-lost 11th century Xixiar Pala murals at Dranang. This is the most authorative sourcebook on one of the world's most remote and fascinating destinations.

Product Description
Fully illustrated throughout, this comprehensive new guide to Tibet contains 1,200 pages of meticulously detailed itineraries, fascinating descriptions, helpful advice, and eye-opening illustrations. 250 maps.

10 out of 10 found this review helpful

excellent, lovingly written book on Tibet. Full of maps and descriptions to pour over. Although clearly written with a pilgrim reader in mind, this actually helps since Tibet is quite a incredibly religious nation. I could wish for some photographs to back up the lovely descriptions, but nonthaless an excellent introduction to the culture of Tibet and a wonderful read.
