4-Hour Tibetan Medicine Culture Museum Tour with Hiking from Xining

Meet up with your driver and guide at 9am at your Xining hotel lobby and begin the tour by visiting the well-known Tibetan Medicine Culture Museum about 4 miles (6 km) away from the city center. Learn about Tibetan culture and medicine as you explore the museum. Admire the world’s largest Tibetan Thangka painting which is over 2,000 feet (618 m) long and 8 feet (2.5 m) high. This world-renowned Thangka project was created over the course of 3 years by hundreds of artisans from Rebgong, a region known for producing Tibetan traditional arts.

In the afternoon, visit the monastery that sits on the North Mountain and take a steep 40-minute hike in the mountains. At the conclusion of the tour, you will be transferred back to your Xining hotel around 1pm.
