Xi Zang, youth has no price, footsteps measure Lhasa.

Setting off is always the most meaningful thing. Only when you arrive in Tibet do you realize that mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas can truly heal all fatigue. Feeding pigeons in Potala Palace Square, basking in the sun, this moment of relaxation is given by Tibet. 🏔️Attraction Recommendations ✅Yamdrok Lake: Holy Lake in the Snow Region ✅Potala Palace: A Place Close to Heaven ✅Namtso: Sapphire on the Plateau ✅Basumtso: Nyingchi's Blue Tear ✅Mount Namcha Barwa: The Rarely Seen, Stunning Golden Mountain Sunrise ✅Karo La Glacier: The Gradually Disappearing Continental Glacier 🏝️Route Recommendation: 🗺Tibet Travel Route: D1: Lhasa → Lalin Expressway → Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon → Mount Namcha Barwa → Suosong Village D2: Suosong Village → Palm-shaped Sand Dunes → Gongdelin Grassland → Dagu Canyon → Monkey Platform → Zetang D3: Zetang → Gangbala Pass → Yamdrok Lake → Karo La Glacier → Gyantse Plain → Shigatse D4: Shigatse → Tingri County → Gyawu La Pass → Mount Everest Base Camp D5: Mount Everest Base Camp → Gawu La Pass → Tingri → Shigatse → Nimu Grassland → Damxung D6: Damxung → Northern Tibet Grassland → Nagqu Pass → Namtso → Tashi Peninsula → Damxung → Lhasa 🥯Food Recommendations: Sweet Tea🍵 Recommended Shops: Guangminggang Qiong Sweet Tea House, Canggu Tea House Features: Lhasa people's breakfast starts with a bowl of sweet tea. Sweet tea is made by boiling milk and tea leaves. The taste is similar to Assam milk tea and is perfect for savoring. 😋 Tibetan Noodles🍜 Recommended Shops: Same as sweet tea houses Features: Tibetan noodles have a unique taste but are served in small portions. Enjoyed with sweet tea, they are definitely an authentic Lhasa breakfast combination. Nepalese Food🍛 Recommended Shops: Nepalese restaurants in the alleys of Barkhor Street, Nepalese restaurant on the top floor of the Thangka Hotel Features: Due to its geographical advantage, Lhasa offers authentic Nepalese cuisine. Recommended dishes include pizza, beef curry, and Nepalese cheese dumplings, none of which will disappoint! 🍵Butter Tea|Made with milk tea and butter, perfect for regaining strength on the plateau 🍲Mutton Hot Pot|Tibetan hot pot mainly features beef and mutton, a combination of meat and vegetables. The mutton is tender, fragrant, and rich. 🥛Nyingchi Yogurt|Herdsmen have their own farms and make yogurt from cow and sheep milk, with a rich milky aroma. 🐔Lulang Stone Pot Chicken|A must-have dish at Tibetan banquets, made with free-range chicken and natural peppercorns, roasted over a wood fire until the chicken skin is crispy. It has the effects of moisturizing the lungs, nourishing yin, and promoting health. 🏠Accommodation Guide: 📍Barkhor Street: Barkhor Street is lively and the most prosperous street in Lhasa. It is recommended to stay near Tuanjie New Village, where there are snack streets, food streets, and various shopping malls. 📍Potala Palace Square: You can enjoy the night view at Potala Palace Square and see👀 the Potala Palace at night. The area near Chakpori Hill is also a good option. 📍Nyingchi: Basically, people visiting Nyingchi stay in Bayi Town, which is convenient for transportation. 💗Other Tips: 1️⃣Do not exercise vigorously before departure. Prepare for high altitude sickness with glucose to supplement energy. No need to take it in advance, the ingredients are safe and easy to carry! 2️⃣Do not get too excited upon arrival. Avoid washing your hair or taking a shower for the first two days, and do not overeat. 3️⃣Puffed foods will explode. It is recommended to bring compressed biscuits, beef jerky, and other small snacks. 4️⃣Bring bottled cosmetics and skincare products! Tube-shaped products will squirt out when opened at high altitudes! 5️⃣Respect local customs. Do not touch children's heads casually, and do not casually discuss local customs, beliefs, and taboos. 6️⃣Watch your phone and bag, there might be petty thieves!👿 7️⃣Finally, I advise all my sisters, whether you plan to join a tour group or travel independently, confirm your itinerary in advance to avoid wasting time‼️
