Authentic is the first word that comes to mind. This village of farmhouses in a magnificently cinematic setting, manages to convey an unforgettable impression of Tibet without sacrificing any comfort or luxury. The monumentally spacious bathrooms for instance, occupy the space on the ground floor once occupied by yaks and goats.

There are two restaurants, but the more interesting one is an all red Tibetan affair that dominates the upper storey of a house dedicated purely to eating. The speciality is 'hot pot' cuisine, consisting of a cast-iron pan with boiling chicken stock in which guests cook their own selection of different raw foods, including choice cuts of yak meat... delicious.
