Seeking a guide to Tibet tourism

Matters needing attention when entering Tibet for the first time

There are countless topics about the beauty of Tibet; There are endless stories about the road risks in Tibet; Only you can appreciate the charm of Tibet. ...

I really want to call a friendly friend to everyone who dreams of traveling to Tibetan areas. What I gave you was just a little experience. I just want to help you spend less money, take less wrong roads, and complete this trip that is worthy of your lifelong aftertaste.

First of all, I want to tell you that you must not fly when you enter Tibet for the first time. Just like climbing a mountain. People who take the cableway will never feel the magnificence of mountains and rivers. People who fly into Tibet can't understand the danger and uniqueness of Tibetan areas. They are often greeted by thin air and sudden altitude sickness.

Second, when I first entered Tibet, it was ideal to take a train from Xining to Golmud, and then take a bus from Golmud to Lhasa via the Qinghai-Tibet Line. This is because there are too many uncertainties on the Yunnan-Tibet line, the New-Tibet line and the Sichuan-Tibet line. In some places, there is no bus, so we can only go by truck.

3. Golmud should not buy the following items: 1) oxygen pillow or oxygen bottle. 2) Rhodiola oral liquid, capsule or glucose oral liquid. This is because all the people I saw who bought oxygen pillows didn't use them because of lack of oxygen. After they enter Tibet, they often carry a baggage and are reluctant to throw it away (60 align=70 yuan/person). Only a few users use it to reduce a little oxygen, so that they can comfortably make pillows under their heads. As for Rhodiola sachalinensis, it is useless to eat it for a while, and the altitude sickness will pass in a few days.

Four, in Golmud, you can buy some appetizing fruits and bread as dry food, and you must also prepare mineral water. The first time I enter Tibet, I will definitely have altitude sickness, and I can't eat anything along the way. Even if you eat it, you will vomit easily. At this time, fruit is really a good thing.

5. The following medicines must be prepared with you: cold medicine, antidiarrheal medicine, anti-inflammatory medicine and band-aid. You must remember that a cold is not terrible, and it is not as easy to die as the legendary cold, but you should take medicine in time to control it. Several people in our group have a cold and fever, but they are all safe because they take medicine in time.

6. In Golmud, it is best to take a state-owned sleeper car, opposite the railway station. It leaves at four o'clock every afternoon, with the upper berth 170 yuan and the lower berth 180 yuan. Private car 130 align= 140 yuan, but it is more dangerous. The blanket on the sleeping car is dirty. You won't cover it at first, but it's not up to you to decide if it's cold at night.

7. Be sure to go to the toilet when parking, regardless of whether you have diarrhea or not, because the next parking spot may be four or five hours late. Most parking spots have no toilets at all, so it is not difficult for men to solve it on the spot, but in case of emergency, women are no exception. I saw it with my own eyes.

Eight, don't wash your face and brush your teeth along the way. Water is in short supply, and the proprietress may greet you. If you really want to wash it, she will remind you to pay 3 yuan.

Nine, to Lhasa in the middle of the night 12: 00 and align=3: 00. You can stay at the bus station guest house for one night first. Don't believe the story that you can't take a bath when you just entered Tibet, or you will consume too much oxygen. That's what people who fly into Tibet say. After four days and four nights of train and car travel, it will stink if you don't take a shower. Triple room with bath, 30 yuan per room.

Tenth, the next day, you can move to Balangxue Hotel, or Kerry Hotel, or Yuxue Hotel, where there are like-minded friends and it is easy to find peers. Balang School: double room 70 yuan, triple room 30 yuan/person, quadruple room 25 yuan/person, 10 yuan/person, free laundry and 24-hour hot water.

Places to visit in Lhasa: Potala Palace, Jokhang Temple, Jokhang Temple, drepung monastery, Norbulingka and Bajiao Street. Jokhang Temple opens the Daxiong Hall at eight o'clock in the evening, and you can feel the extraordinary religious atmosphere. It's boring to visit Lhasa in Tibet alone. Anyone who has the money to fly is free to come and go. As far as I can see, after Lhasa, you can go to Shigatse, then go to Mount Everest and Yangzhuoyong Lake on a fixed day, and then go to Namco, or go to Shan Zong Site, Baiju Temple and Pala Manor in Gyangze. Tashilhunpo Temple in Shigatse is going anyway.

12. Lhasa can take the shuttle bus to Shigatse. In Shigatse, you can find a special car rental agency, which is cheaper than finding a travel agency or a hotel. Travel agencies and hotels earn you at least one third more. ) generally, you can find friends in the same direction in Lhasa. Rent an off-road vehicle in Shigatse, 3.2 align= 3.5 yuan per kilometer. (directly find the driver, there is no agency fee.

Thirteen, about Tibetan ornaments: the so-called Tibetan silver is white copper. If you wear it, it will turn black and smell like copper. Tibetans don't wear them themselves, so don't buy them. You can buy some pure silver, but it's expensive. ) Tibetan knives are generally sold to tourists in a rough way. Tibetans love red coral and turquoise, but they are really expensive. But you can buy some dzi beads to wear. Different textures have different meanings, but there are also fakes, made of wood and plastic, but with light weight and different textures. Good dzi beads are naturally etched.

If you go to see Mount Everest, you must be prepared for hardship. Being trapped in a car is a common occurrence. Your duty is to remind the driver and help explore the road, cushion the stones and push the cart. At this time, unity is strength. If there are components, make them, but be careful not to sink your shoes into the mud.

Fifteen, more than half of people are not used to drinking butter tea. You can taste a little less. If you can, it will be of great help to replenish your physical strength. If not, drink milk tea instead. Sweet and fragrant. It's really good. You can have steamed stuffed bun porridge or noodles for breakfast, and Sichuan food for lunch and dinner. It's quite big and tastes bad. You can drink, but you'd better drink less.

16. There is a great temperature difference between morning and evening here. Wear more in the morning, take it off when it is hot, put it on when the mountain wind blows, and put it on when it is cold. Don't be afraid of trouble, or you will catch a cold easily. Tents and damp-proof mats are rarely used, so you don't need to bring them. If you want to sleep in your own quilt, take a sleeping bag.

Seventeen, after such a lap, it is almost twelve align= fifteen days from the beginning to the end, and the physical consumption is almost the same. Go back and fly. There are the most flights from Lhasa to Chengdu, twice a day, 1200 yuan/person. Taxi fare from Lhasa to Gongga Airport 120 yuan can be shared by peers.

Friends who want to go to Tibet, if you walk through Tibet like this, you will have your own Tibet, where there are blue sky and white clouds, and you will have your own hardships and gains. Perhaps, you will never forget; Maybe you want to go again. Then, let's go to Shenshan and Shenghu together next time. Kangrinboqe and Ma Bangyong CuO Lake have been lying there for thousands of years. The mountain is high and the water is far, and the road is difficult to walk. Let's say to each other: bon voyage, Tashildler!
