Tibet, a land of immense beauty and cultural richness, is located at the heart of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, on the southwestern edge of China. Known for its abundant sunshine, Tibet enjoys over 3,000 hours of sunlight annually. Often referred to as the "Land of Snow," it remains covered in snow for much of the year, with few signs of human habitation.

With an average elevation exceeding 4,000 meters, Tibet is the highest region in the world and is famously called the "Roof of the World." This is no surprise, given that southern Tibet lies within the Himalayas, home to many of the world’s tallest peaks. Beyond its impressive altitude, Tibet is one of the most isolated regions on Earth, with the majority of its population living between 1,200 and 5,100 meters above sea level. The mountains of Tibet serve as the source and dividing line for Asia’s major rivers, with the Brahmaputra being the most significant. While Tibet’s rivers hold vast potential for hydroelectric power, this resource remains largely untapped.
