Here are maps of Tibet, which is located on the world's biggest and highest plateau, Qingzang Plateau. At an average altitude of more than 4,000 meters, Tibet borders on India, Nepal, Sikkim, Bhutan, Burma and other countries on the south. On the border stands the mighty Himalayas. Tibet adjoins Xinjiang and Qinghai on the north and Yunnan and Sichuan on the east. It's formed by the capital Lhasa City and the other six regions, including Chamdo, Nyingchi, Shannan, Shigatse, Nagri and Nakchu. The population of South Tibet is bigger than that of North Tibet. The mostly uninhabited areas are situated in the north of Tibet. Nagri and Nakchu in the northwest are sparsely populated.
Lhasa and Shigatse are frequented by visitors. As the capital of Tibet, Lhasa boasts numerous tourist attractions, such as the Potala Palace and Sera Monastery. Shigatse is proud of the world's highest peak Mount Qomolangma. In the Tibet map, you can find a small county named Tingri. It is a vital stop leading to the camp of Mount Qomolangma. There are many lakes in Tibet. They mainly distribute near the inland rivers in the north and south of Tibet.
There is only one railway across Tibet from northeast to southwest. It begins from Xining to Lhasa via Golmud. The Qingzang (Qinghai-Tibet) Highway crosses the Changtang Prairie in the north of Tibet, extends to Lhasa and joins with the Chuanzang (Sichuan-Tibet) Highway. Both the Qingzang Railway and Qingzang Highway are very important passages connecting Tibet with Qinghai.
