About Us → Our Tours →Culturally Tibetan areas are generally divided into 3 major regions and these areas are differentiated by unique dialects, customs, traditions, denominational sects, and flavors. Each of these areas accounts for about 25-35% of the world’s total population of 7 million Tibetans.
Amdo Tibetans are often known as the artists and scholars of Tibet and these Tibetans can be found in Qinghai, Gansu and Sichuan provinces. Amdo is home to approximately 25% of the total Tibetan population. This cultural Tibetan region of Amdo is home to the source of many great rivers including the Yellow River and Yangtze River. As the home to many influential monasteries and living Buddha’s this is a a cultural and religious center, especially for the ruling Gelugpa sect of Tibetan Buddhism. In fact, the founder of the Gelugpa or Yellow Hat sect was Tsongkapa and his birthplace is located just a 40 minute drive from Xining, the capital of Qinghai.
The Kham Tibetan people live in some of the wildest and most magnificent lands in all the Tibetan Plateau.
