Spiritual City for Abandoned Souls: Lhasa, Tibet

There’s a special group of people living a very special life. They pray for others and spend their entire life studying Buddhism to communicate with god. They dwell at the highest place on earth, closest to the sky to reach god. As you might have guessed, yes, I am talking about Tibetans.
 
Sandwiched between China and India, especially between the Himalayas and vast plateaus, Tibet was isolated from the rest of the world. Around 7 B.C., after consolidating various tribes and designating Songtsan Gampo as its capital city, Tibet adopted Buddhism exposing itself to the world. Ever since then Tibetans consider themselves life-long Buddhists, maintaining the lifestyle till nowadays. - See more at:
