Gyantze

In a land known for the Buddhist religion, Gyantze is instead hailed as the City of Hero for its determination and heroic spirit during an invasion in 1904. A well-preserved Tibetan town positioned between Lhasa and Shigatse, the town was once a rich trading hub as a branch of the Friendship highway, a route that connects Nepal and Lhasa.
