Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tibet is sometimes described as the "roof of the world"; the entire region is on a high plateau and there are many large mountains. The area has its own unique culture, and most travellers will find some of the plants, wildlife and domestic animals quite exotic as well. Entering Tibet you feel as though you've found an entirely different world. Politically, Tibet is an autonomous region of China. Tibet is also becoming a more and more popular travel destination among the Chinese themselves. It is almost as exotic to someone from another area of China as it is to someone from the other side of the world, and there is now a good rail link. Wink Travel Guides introduce you to the best world travel destinations, in a clear and concise way, illustrated by photos.
