Xiahe
One of the foremost Tibetan monastery towns outside of Lhasa, Xiahe is the closest you will get to Tibet, without actually visiting Tibet. The town’s population is 50% Tibetan and the town itself is set in a spectacular mountain valley.
Founded 300 years ago, the Labrang Monastery is a must for people wanting to learn more about the Tibetan way of life. Over 1000 monks still reside here today.
Tibetan Monastery Town – already mentioned above.
As well as the famous Labrang Monastery, there is also an interesting nunnery to visit.
