opened to the 'Roof of the World' and foreigners can now visit the
'Forbidden Land' of Tibet.

Kashmir all border Tibet. Over two million people inhabit this land of
rich natural resources and ancient cultures.

rivers, and mighty snow clad peaks are just a few of the intoxicating
wonders to be experienced by adventurous travellers who get the
