Banyan Tree Ringha Resort

Gyalthang, Tibet

On Condé Nast Traveler’s Hot List for 2006, the Banyan Tree Ringha, a spectacular retreat set in the hills outside of Gyalthang, is one of the most secluded hideaways in the world. The hotel’s beautifully furnished bungalows are constructed from ancient Tibetan houses relocated log by log, and feature private terraces with valley or river views and bathrooms with Tibetan carpets and handmade wooden bathtubs, perfect for a soak at the end of the day. The restaurant serves Asian and international cuisine by the fireside and the spa offers a wonderful array of treatments.
