Tibet Travel Guide

Before going to Tibet, be sure to prepare a good travel plan👇🏼. ✅About Transportation 🚞If you take the train, I suggest you depart from Xining on z6811, because the scenery is great and the journey is short, 22 hours to Lhasa, so there's no need to scramble for tickets on those few popular trains ✈️Direct flights to Lhasa, many people say they don't recommend this, but actually, it's not a big deal, whether you get altitude sickness or not is completely a matter of personal psychology ✅About Accommodation 🏨It is recommended to stay near Potala Palace Square or Barkhor Street, Pincuo Kangsang View Hotel and Xinhua Hotel are both good ✅Itinerary Arrangement 🔆Day 1 Zongjiao Lukang Park➡️Yao Wang Mountain Viewing Platform➡️Potala Palace Square 🔆Day 2 Pabangka➡️Barkhor Street➡️Jokhang Temple 🔆Day 3, 4, 5 Join a group tour to Nyingchi for three days (Basum Lake➡️Xinrong➡️Sejila Mountain Pass➡️Lulang Forest Sea➡️Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon➡️Sosong Village➡️Buddha Palm Sand Dunes) 🔆Day 6 Join a group tour to Shannan for one day (Yamdrok Lake➡️Karo La Glacier) 🔆Day 7 Tibet Post Office in the Sky➡️Nanshan Park ✅Food Recommendations 1️⃣Qianzhan Yak Yogurt Shop (Potala Store), recommended rating🌟🌟🌟🌟 2️⃣Guangming Teahouse, too crowded, no need to squeeze in, there are many good teahouses in the small boxes, recommended rating🌟🌟🌟 3️⃣A Diao Sweet Tea, recommended rating🌟🌟🌟🌟 4️⃣Cuomu Liangfen, personally think it's average, recommended rating🌟🌟🌟 5️⃣Ruyi Linka Copper Pot Yak Meat, delicious and good atmosphere, recommended rating🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 6️⃣Pa Cang Teahouse (Takeaway), delicious, ordered several times from them, recommended rating🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 7️⃣Baima Kangzhuo Teahouse, a small shop in a small alley, pretty good, recommended rating🌟🌟🌟🌟 8️⃣Nianbao Yuze Tibetan Restaurant, a popular store, recommended rating🌟🌟🌟 9️⃣Shanqian Coffee Restaurant, suitable for taking photos and checking in, recommended rating🌟🌟🌟 🔟Jixiang Shengxue Tibetan Restaurant, a popular store, crowded, but the taste is not bad, recommended rating🌟🌟🌟🌟 ‼️Precautions 1️⃣In Tibet, be sure to carry your ID card with you, without an ID card you can hardly move, you can't go anywhere 2️⃣Rhodiola and other altitude sickness medicines are not very useful, just bring oral glucose solution 3️⃣Do a good job of sun protection, bring sunglasses, the ultraviolet rays in Tibet are very strong 4️⃣For group tours, it is recommended to join through a major platform, don't join large groups, spend a little more money to join a small group of six people, it's also more enjoyable 5️⃣Before going to Yamdrok Lake, people will sell oxygen cylinders, a few hundred for one, to be honest, it's really not necessary to buy, don't be brainwashed 6️⃣It is recommended not to take hard seats directly, it's too tiring and can easily lead to altitude sickness, sleeper carriages also have various flag-raising and signing ceremonies 7️⃣When going to Basum Lake, you must take a boat ride!!! The whole journey is 40 minutes, and this boat ticket is not included in the group tour fee, 180💰/person 8️⃣In Lhasa city, don't miss the overpass near the Potala Palace, it's very photogenic📸
