I am just recovering from the Jet lag a week ago , I traveled Tibet in China with my family last week. We really have had a wonderful time there except for some unpleasant experience caused by the weather. We toured most of the places far to the everest-base camp. When we were on the way there, it began to snow and the road was blocked, it took much longer time to be there, as a result, we had to canclel some of the sights in order to catch our international flight. Therefore, I advise you to take the tour in Tibet at a better time eg May, July, Aug and Sep.
