Home : China Guide : Tibet : Tibetan inhabited areas

The Tibetan inhabited areas in China are divided into the U-Tsang, Amdo and Kamba regions.

U-Tsang refers to the Tibet Autonomous Region itself.

Amdo refers to the southern Gansu and Qinghai provinces.

Kamba refers to more remote areas such as Garze Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Sichuan Province, Deqen Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Yunnan Province, Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture and Golog Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Qinghai Province.

The U-Tsang region is famous for its strong Tibetan Buddhism influence, Amdo for its hunting culture and Kamba for its many talented people. Sichuan Province has the largest Tibetan-inhabited area other than Tibet Autonomous Region.
