Tibet was once an independent kingdom but today is part of the People's Republic of China (PRC). A small portion, according to the government of the People's Republic of China, is controlled by India. Tibet is an eternal topic and dream of so many people, with its unique high attitude, exotic culture, unique highlauxind landscapes, and friendly people. Lhasa is the capital city of Tibet Autonomous Region and has long been the center of politics, economy, culture and religion in Tibet. Lhasa means "holy land" in the Tibetan language. A great place to visit is the Potala Palace, which is now on the list of Chinese national key protected cultural relics, and is the most valuable storehouse in Tibet. It is a huge treasure house for materials and articles of Tibetan history, religion, culture and arts. The famous Mt. Everest is a must too. Also known as Mt. Qomolangma, meaning Goddess Third in Tibet, it is the highest peak in the world at 8,848 meters (29,028 feet) and is snow capped throughout the year.
