Ü (Tibetan: དབུས་, Wylie: dbus, ZYPY: Wü, Lhasa dialect: [wyː˨˧˩]) is a geographic division and a historical region in Tibet. Together with Tsang (གཙང་, gtsang), it forms Central Tibet Ü-Tsang (དབུས་གཙང་, dbus gtsang), which is one of the three Tibetan regions or cholka (cholka-sum). The other two cholka are Kham (ཁམས་, khams) (Dotod) and Amdo (ཨ༌མདོ; a mdo) (Domed). According to a Tibetan saying, "the best religion comes from Ü-Tsang, the best men from Kham, and the best horses from Amdo".[1]
