Traveling on my own seems not an option, so I'm willing to join a group. Does anybody know what the best way is to go about this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!! amyamyamy yang Post Count: 3 Msg: #2 142 days ago, June 25th 2009 | it is a good idea to jion a grop, mabye you can contact with the local agancy. | <snip> there are a lot of nice pictures and introduce [Edited: 07:49 - Jo Trouble - url removed. ] JaniceCHZ Janice Post Count: 9 Msg: #3 129 days ago, July 8th 2009 | Hi, taking a join-in tour is a good idea because it is to save your tour cost. Especially, the tour cost in Tibet is more expensive than other cities in China. There are some web I found for your reference. There are join-in tour that might be to meet your demands. | <snip> Or just contact China local travel agency to see if there is the tourists who has the same interest as you.

Which map indicate Tibet is/was a independent country? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Qing_Dynasty_1820.png http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:ROC_Administrative_and_Claims.png (Note: see the Xikang Province in the map. Tibet is bigger than it was before PRC) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:China_administrative.gif http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qing_Dynasty http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republic_of_China http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/People's_Republic_of_China I think it's normal for one to live anywhere in his country. Americans can live in Hawaii(Native Hawaiian is a minority in Hawaii, needless to say Native Indian in US mainland) , also can live in New York. Chinese can live in anywhere(Tibetans can also live in Beijing etc). Here, I want to mention that Chinese are not equal to Han. Chinese are comprised of 56 ethnics, such as Han, Hui, Manchu, Tibetan, Miao, Bai, Dai, Mongolian.......... I also think Chinese should protect the Tibetan unique culture. But I think it's difficult to find a balance point between the modernizing and the protecting the tradition. Some one does not like Chinese gov. I think it's normal. I also disagree some policies of Chinese gov. No one gov can satisfy its every people. I do not like those foreigners who break Chinese law (The Anti-Secession Law). If someone breaks Chinese law in China, they should be punished. gov. Thank you, friends! Enjoy China, Enjoy Tibet! Good luck! system TravelBlog System User Post Count: 921 Msg: #6 125 days ago, July 12th 2009 | 2 posts moved to this topic: Chinese politics | system TravelBlog System User Post Count: 921 Msg: #7 125 days ago, July 12th 2009 | 1 posts moved to this topic: Chinese politics | Mell Mell Post Count: 13894 Msg: #8 125 days ago, July 12th 2009 | Hello INTBI | I have been told by somebody who supports freedom for Tibet, that http://www.tibetfit.com/ is an agency that you could consider.
