Description, this article was reprinted by a forum called "Going to Tibet", but most of the forums are in the form of tourism, so the following are for the reference of the brothers who make pilgrimages.

The information in this post will be updated from time to time without prior notice. I don't make any guarantee for these reprints, so please be careful. Of course, in most cases, these reprints are still very reliable.

tips on tourism in Tibet

First of all, I want to tell you that you must not fly when you first enter Tibet. It's just like climbing a mountain. People who take the cableway can never appreciate the grandeur and beauty of the mountains and rivers. People who fly into Tibet can't understand the dangers and uniqueness of Tibetan areas. They are often greeted by thin air and sudden altitude sickness.

second, when you first enter Tibet, it is 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 in the Yunnan-Tibet line, the New Tibet line and the Sichuan-Tibet line, and some places don't even have buses, so they can only take trucks to move forward.

Third, don't buy the following items in Golmud: 1) oxygen pillows or oxygen tanks. 2) Rhodiola oral liquid, capsule or glucose oral liquid. This is because everyone I saw who bought oxygen pillows didn't use them because of lack of oxygen. After they entered Tibet, they often carried a burden and were reluctant to throw it away (6 align=7 yuan/person). Only a few users used it to reduce a little oxygen, so they could comfortably make pillows under their heads. As for rhodiola sachalinensis, it is useless to eat it temporarily, and altitude sickness will pass after a few days of adaptation.

Fourth, you can buy some appetizing fruits and bread as dry food in Golmud, and you must also prepare mineral water. When you enter Tibet for the first time, there will definitely be altitude sickness, and you will not be able to eat anything along the way. Even if you eat it, you will easily vomit. 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 likely to die as the legendary cold, but you should take medicine in time to control it. Several people in our group have had colds and fevers, but they are all safe because they take medicine in time.

6. To take a bus in Golmud, you'd better take a state-run sleeper, which is opposite the railway station. It leaves at four o'clock every afternoon, with upper berth in 17 yuan and lower berth in 18 yuan. Private car 13 align=14 yuan, but it is more dangerous. The blanket on the sleeping car is dirty, so you won't cover it at first, but it's not up to you when it gets cold in the evening.

7. When parking, you must go to the toilet, whether you want to have diarrhea or not, because the next parking spot may be four or five hours later. Most parking spots have no toilets at all, so it is not difficult for men to solve them on the spot, but when it comes to emergencies, women are no exception. This is what I saw with my own eyes.

8. You don't have to 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 up, she will remind you to pay 3 yuan.

9. Arriving in Lhasa is usually between 12: and align=3: . You can stay at the bus station guest house for one night first. Don't believe the nonsense that you can't take a shower when you just entered Tibet, otherwise it will consume too much oxygen. That's what people who entered Tibet by plane said. After four days and four nights of train and car travel, it will stink if you don't take a shower. 3 yuan for each triple room with bath.

On the 1th and 2nd day, you can move to Balangxue Hostel, or kirey hotel, or Xueyu Hotel, where there are like-minded friends, so it is convenient to find colleagues. Balang University: Double room in 7 yuan, triple room with 3 yuan per person, quadruple room with 25 yuan per person, all-in-one bed with 1 yuan per person, free laundry and 24-hour hot water.

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

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

XIII. Tibetan ornaments: The so-called Tibetan silver is white copper, which will turn black and smell like copper when worn. Tibetans don't wear it themselves, so don't buy it. You can buy some sterling silver, but it's expensive. ) Tibetan knives are generally sold to tourists in a rough way. Tibetans love red corals and turquoise, but they are really expensive. Instead, you can buy some dzi beads to wear. Different textures have different meanings, but there are also fakes, made of wood and plastic, but the weight is light and the texture is different. Good dzi beads have natural etching.

14. If you want to see Mount Everest, you must be prepared for hardship. Getting stuck in a car is a common occurrence. It is your duty to remind the driver and help explore the road, cushion the stones and push the cart. At this time, unity is strength. If you have a component, make a component, but be careful not to get your shoes stuck in the mud.

15. Most people can't get used to buttered tea. You can try less. If you can, it will help you replenish your strength. If you can't, drink milk tea instead. It's delicious and sweet. It's really good. You can have porridge with steamed stuffed buns or noodles for breakfast, and have some Sichuan food for lunch and dinner. It's quite large and tastes bad. You can drink wine, but it is better to drink less.

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

Seventeen. It takes almost twelve align= fifteen days from the start to the end of such a lap, and the physical strength is almost exhausted. Go back and fly. There are the most flights from Lhasa to Chengdu, with two flights a day, at a cost of 1,2 yuan/person. Taxi fare from Lhasa to Gongga Airport in 12 yuan can be shared by peers.

Friends who want to go to Tibet, if you walk through Tibet in this way, 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 it; Maybe you want to go again. Then, let's go to Shenshan and Shenghu together next time. Gangrenboqi Mountain and Mabang Yongcuo Lake have been lying there for thousands of years. The mountain is high and the water is far away, and the road is difficult and dangerous. Let's say to each other: Have a safe trip, Tashildler!

Financial Articles:

Bring a credit card Unless you will only stay in big cities such as Lhasa, it is recommended to apply for a passbook for postal savings. As long as there are postal savings in large and small cities, you can easily withdraw your money deposited in different places.

It should be noted that on the first line of Mount Everest and Zhangmu, only Shigatse can withdraw money, and Ali is the Shiquan River.

Except postal services, the bank with the largest number of outlets is Agricultural Bank of China. Not long ago, China Construction Bank finally achieved nationwide networking in Tibet.

take some enough cash with you separately, which may be the safest measure on the road.

Equipment: It is recommended to look at the most basic equipment for Tibet

If you are visiting Tibet for the first time, if you have a preliminary understanding of Tibet's geography and history.

then you can prepare your own equipment according to the length of the trip and the situation of the destination.

I'm not an equipment theorist. The practice of myself and my friends has proved that many things recommended by many articles are expensive and useless, which only adds weight to the backpack.

the first and most important thing is the shoes needed for walking.

If you like hiking and climbing snow-capped mountains, if you are going to camp in the wild, if you want to stay in Tibet for a while.

then professional hard waterproof hiking shoes are essential, and the best one is imported goretex hiking shoes, which are naturally incomparable in waterproof, breathable and warmth.

If you just walk around the regular scenic spots and have a look, a pair of ordinary but sturdy sneakers will be fully competent.

A pair of slippers or sandals is also essential. You will find its importance only when you need a long ride, when you have the conditions to take a shower, or when you need to see the water.

the second thing is the bag you need to carry outdoors.

There's no need to carry a huge backpack to shape your tall self-help image. This is a plateau, not a performance ground.

a backpack of about p>5 liters and a weight of more than 3 kilograms are enough to put down your so-called necessities.

Of course, a small bag or an emergency bag with about 1 liters can also be of great use, when you tie your big bag as luggage to the car or put your backpack in the campsite.

the most commonly used items and food in the day's trip will be accommodated by it.

finally, it's Tibetan clothes.

The sunshine time in Tibet is the longest, but even in the hottest July and August, the temperature difference between day and night is huge.

in order to prevent the most dangerous cold.

windproof and warm clothes and rain-proof clothes are necessary.

when you can afford it, a professional waterproof and breathable jacket will be your best companion when it rains or even when climbing a snowy mountain.

if it doesn't work, a sturdy military raincoat can also achieve its effect, but it is airtight and heavier.

Hundreds of pants will do. Although the air permeability is not good, unzipping the zippers on both sides can also get some air.

I don't think it is necessary to grasp the so-called professional things such as sweaters and sweat-wicking underwear, unless you want to climb the snowy mountain and cross the grass.

You may need a down jacket if you want to stay at Everest Base Camp or watch the sunrise in Namco. The warmth of down jackets can bring you special courage.

Spare shirts, underwear and socks. Sometimes you may not be able to change clothes in a few days. Take more clothes and save them together for washing.

A strong belt is also necessary. On the way, I saw a lady's belt broken.

It is also a good choice to use a soft nylon backpack belt with buckles as a belt.

In addition to hanging a purse, a knife and a camera, it may play an unexpected and important role in some critical moments.

hat on your head. In strong sunlight, wearing a hat with a brim on your head can protect you from the sun, wind and dust, and even prevent a certain amount of rain from obscuring your vision.

a pair of sunglasses.

it's not necessary to be cool, it can prevent strong reflection and snow blindness when crossing the snow.

instead of climbing the snow-capped mountains, it will make it possible for you to walk a longer way and see more scenery outside the window in the hot sunshine on the Tibetan Plateau.

people who already wear glasses can just go to the store and make a pair of sunglasses clips that can be turned up.

sports watch.

there is no need for a professional watch with an altitude temperature of more than 1, yuan.

as long as it is a quartz watch or an electronic watch with waterproof, dustproof and shockproof performance.

Although Tibetans don't have much sense of time, you have to have it yourself.

even the pointer can face the sun and act as a compass.

Tibetan equipment (2)

remove the upper and lower clothes on your body.

if you enter Tibet, you can consider taking the following.

I'm not an expert on medicine, but I still need to listen to the advice of experts. Many places outside Tibet are really short of medicine.

Yunnan Baiyao spray (especially useful when you have cramps, blisters and scratches on your legs and feet while hiking)

Band-AIDS of different sizes.

cold and fever drugs, gastrointestinal discomfort drugs, allergic infection drugs, altitude sickness first aid drugs (such as propranolol, etc.), and multivitamins (such as one tablet of jinshikang every day).

Others are medicines prepared according to the individual's physical condition and route.

although it may not be used, being prepared will increase the chances of safety.

cameras, film, moisture-proof bags and spare batteries

It would be a pity not to take pictures in Tibet, which has the most beautiful scenery.

But unless you are a professional "sex lover" or you are ready to go all the way by chartered bus. Otherwise, the suggestion is not to bring too professional photographic equipment.

otherwise, unless you hire backpackers and yaks, it will be difficult for you to reach many wonderful but closed places.

except in big cities such as Lhasa, films and lithium batteries are not easy to buy on the road. In order to prevent counterfeit goods from wasting feelings, it is recommended to buy enough cheap spare films and batteries from home or Kunming. Otherwise, you may regret it.

There is a lot of wind and dust on the road. Put the camera in a damp bag, add cleaning mirror paper and blow balloons, and it should be able to do the work on the road.
