What ideas should I prepare to travel to Tibet alone?

It is recommended not to be alone, and everyone's altitude sickness is not necessarily.

About altitude sickness

① One week before entering Tibet, you must start taking rhodiola capsules (available in larger pharmacies).

(2) Start moderate exercise (running, swimming and playing ball) one or two months before entering Tibet.

(3) Before entering Tibet, you must take care of yourself, don't catch a cold, and don't have problems such as pharyngitis (a cold can easily cause emphysema in a plateau environment).

(4) After arriving in Tibet, it is best to rest in the hotel for half a day to adapt to the environment, don't wander around excitedly, and it is best not to take a shower on the first and second day of arrival.

Necessary items

(1) cold medicine, anti-inflammatory drugs, rhodiola, Yunnan Baiyao, Lu Zheng pills, etc.

(2) Toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo, shower gel, towels, hair dryers, cups and slippers (there are always hotels that don't provide these things).

3 Sunscreen SPF & gt50 (mandatory, especially for girls, just wipe it if nothing happens.

4 lotion and lipstick (essential, Tibetan areas are very dry, even if it rains).

⑤ Umbrella (be sure to bring it, the weather in Tibet is uncertain, it will be half-baked during the day and it will rain at night).

⑥ MP3 (which can be used to kill time in the car most of the time), camera.

⑦ Cash (you don't need to withdraw money if you have four or five thousand on you)

Candy or something can also be brought to children.

Transit card

Domestic guests (including those holding mainland ID cards and Hong Kong and Macao ID cards) need to apply for border passes to the border areas such as Dingri (Everest), Zhangmu, Yadong, Chayu, Medog and Ali.

Location: Domestic ID card holders should apply in the household registration reception room of the public security bureau where their household registration is located.

Procedures: Please bring your ID card and submit it for examination. If there are children with ID cards, bring the children's household registration book. After paying RMB 2 yuan, fill out an application form for border pass, and fill in the area you want to go to in the column of going to the border area. For example, if you want to go to the base camp of Mount Everest, just fill in the "fixed date Mount Everest area"; If you are going to Shenshan (Gangren Boqin) and Shenghu (Mabian Yongcuo), just fill in "Arizadaplan County".

The vast majority of Tibetans still accept and are photographed. When taking pictures of Tibetans, we must respect them and try to avoid disturbing the subjects. If necessary, we can give the subjects some small gifts, which is much better than giving money. If the subject objects, don't force it. In some relatively mature scenic spots, such as Jiuzhaigou Tibetan area in Sichuan, there is a charge for taking pictures of the elderly. In fact, it is necessary to communicate patiently if you want to shoot a good portrait. Only good communication can help you take good photos with a sense of depth.
