The Spiritual Benedictions of Buddhism:
Probably Buddhism was first introduced to Tibet in 173 CE during the
reign of the 28th Yarlung king Lha Thothori Nyantsen, but had apparently
no impact. The first official historic introduction of a Buddhist
scripture into Tibet happened during reign of King Hlato Ri Nyentsen
(28th king of Tibet - around 500 CE), however, the book was not
translated at the time.
The Everest Region:
The Tibetan approach to Mt Everest or Qoomolangma (8848m) provides far
better vistas of the world's highest peak than those on the Nepal side.
Some 27,000 sq km around Everest's Tibetan face have been designated as
the Qoomolangma Nature Preserve, aiming to protect the environment and
the cultural traditions of the local people. For foreign travelers, the
Everest Base Camp has become the most popular trekking destination in
Tibet, but this does not mean that the region is exactly swarming with
hikers.
