PRINTER FRIENDLY VERSION
A comprehensive guide to the whole of Tibet, including not just the central plateau but also the eastern provinces of Kham and Amdo, as well as chapters on Bhutan and the Kathmandu Valley. Almost 1,000 pages but surprisingly compact, with maps, color photographs, and a brief overview of culture and history. Divided geographically, most of the book is devoted to kilometer-by-kilometer information on sights and attractions. Gyurme Dorje is a leading Buddhist scholar who knows the region as well as anyone.
