Mount Sapu - Sunrise over Mount Everest

Witness the sunrise illuminating the Himalayas, including five of the world's highest peaks over 8,000 meters. Here, the focus is on Mount Everest, the majestic peak standing tall in the distance. [High-Altitude Survival Kit] 1. Start taking Rhodiola 15 days in advance! Switch to Gaoyuan An upon arrival (Personally tested and proven effective; I was the only one in the group feeling energetic). 2. Ibuprofen + Glucose + Pulse Oximeter are essential (They saved me from excruciating altitude sickness headaches at night). 3. Don't wash your hair on the day of arrival! Avoid strenuous exercise! (The team leader said 80% of altitude sickness cases are self-inflicted). [Tips for Choosing a Tour] Choose a genuine, no-shopping tour that includes a border defense permit and medical oxygen. Confirm whether it includes a Mount Everest tent/prayer flag blessing. Inquire about DSLR + drone photography services. Tips: The second day of the itinerary is the best time to start acclimatizing to high altitude. Be sure to capture photos of Yamdrok Lake before noon. Choose a tent with an electric blanket at Everest Base Camp. Carry enough 1-yuan banknotes (for restroom fees along the way). Itinerary: 1: From anywhere in the country to Lhasa 2: Lhasa - Yamdrok Lake - Kangmar - Chongba Yongcuo Lake - Kangmar 3: Kangmar - Dingri - Gyatso La Pass - Everest Base Camp - Mount Everest 4: Mount Everest - Gyawu La Pass - Nimu Grassland - Damxung 5: Damxung - Holy Elephant Gate - Namtso Lake - Nagenla Pass - Nyainqentanglha Mountains - Lhasa 6: End of trip in Lhasa
