Two days will be dedicated for Lhasa Tour. Lhasa is the spiritual centre of Tibet. We will visit Norbulinka Palace early in the morning. The colossal Palace sparkles as jewel in Lhasa. Pretty garden of wild flowers adorns the premise. Norbulinka served as the summer palace for seventh to fourteenth Dalai Lama, the most revered spiritual priest of Tibet. Our next stop will be at Sera Monastery. You will immediately feel the spiritual sensation awaking inside you once you step inside this Monastery. Soothe your ears with the rhythmic humming of words from scripture by the monks. Take close observation of statues, scriptures and murals. Circumambulate around the sacred Jokhang Temple along with other devotees through the pilgrimage circuit around old street. Take the tour of Barkhor Bazaar before returning to hotel in Lhasa.
