in August, many students have had their summer holidays. Tibet is a place where many friends want to travel. The blue sky, white snow-capped mountains, beautiful lakes and unique people are fascinating. So, what are the precautions for traveling to Tibet?
Transportation to Tibet
Plane: direct flight to Lhasa. It is the most affordable to take a civil aviation bus after getting off the plane, 31 yuan/person.
Train: You can take bus No.13 and No.14 from the railway station to downtown Lhasa, 1 yuan/person.
self-driving: if you choose go on road trip, you should do a detailed strategy.
Carpooling/chartered car: According to different models, seasons and routes, the cost of chartered car will fluctuate to a certain extent (remember to prepare the green health code and boarding code when entering Tibet)
Ps: Bian Xiao saw many friends say that it is easier to fly directly to Lhasa and the train will be relatively better.
high reaction
, when you enter the plateau from the plain, there will be altitude sickness. Symptoms of hyperreflexia are generally headache, shortness of breath, chest tightness and fatigue. Many reaction symptoms are caused by psychological effects. Before entering the plateau, physical examination in advance, proper exercise and oral administration of rhodiola can increase the adaptability to the plateau. The slower you enter the plateau, the better your body's adaptability. When you first arrive at the plateau, you are advised not to exercise vigorously or overeat. It is generally not recommended to take a bath on the first night when you first arrive at the plateau, so as to avoid serious pulmonary edema caused by a cold with open pores.
Travel preparation
Documents: ID card, student ID card (required), border defense card, household registration book (for children)
Electrical appliances: charger, charging treasure, earphone, selfie stick and camera.
clothing: underwear, pajamas, sun protection clothes, coats, comfortable and loose pants, hard-soled outdoor or hiking high-top shoes.
Accessories: hats, sunglasses, scarves and shawls
Protection: high-magnification sunscreen, lip balm, moisturizing cream and other beauty products.
daily necessities: umbrellas, thermos cups, toothbrushes and toothpaste, towels, U-shaped pillows, eye masks, small humidifiers, disposable bed sheets and quilts (accommodation conditions are poor in some places)
Drugs: glucose oral liquid, motion sickness medicine, and high reaction medicine.
from p>2111 to 2112, the average summer temperature in Tibet was 12~25 degrees. There are many sunny days and strong ultraviolet rays during the day. Be sure to wear a sunscreen hat and sunscreen, or you will really change from a city beauty to a primitive person.
Weather and temperature
The Potala Palace is a must-see attraction when traveling to Tibet. It is hard to get a ticket for Potala Palace in peak season, so you must make an appointment in advance. Pay attention to the "Potala Palace Booking System" applet and make an appointment at least one day in advance. On the first day in Lhasa, you must not climb the Potala Palace. First, there are many steps and high physical requirements. Second, altitude is easy for people to react. I suggest you go to Tibet in a couple of days to get used to the plateau. Besides, there are many places in the Potala Palace.

Not all places in Tibet can walk around at will. Some places need to apply for border defense in advance. Before you leave, you must apply at your residence.

border card
In Tibet, Sichuan cuisine and Tibetan cuisine are the most popular. If you are a friend who doesn't eat spicy food, you need to explain it to the front desk in advance.
Catering
You must bargain when you buy tourist goods in Barkhor Street, and don't bargain when you take something. You must bargain before you take something.
Tourist commodities
You must not wear skirts when visiting Tibetan temples. Skirts and shorts are not allowed in Tibetan temples. If you are not careful, you will make a trip in vain. Besides, you can't take pictures in most temples in Tibet. Friends who want to take pictures need to consult in advance, so be sure to pay attention!
Temple tours
In many scenic spots in Tibet, there is a charge for taking photos with Tibetan mastiffs, yaks and cute sheep, ranging from 11 to 21 yuan.

Lhasa takes bus to 1 yuan/person,
Transportation in Lhasa
It's my first time to Tibet, so I suggest forgetting the direction of Linzhi, because Linzhi is the lowest place in Tibet, with an average elevation of about 3,111 meters. If you are not used to the plateau at first, you can go to Linzhi to get used to it.
