On the issue of traveling to Tibet

Before entering Tibet:

1. Patients with severe hypertension, asthma and heart disease are not recommended to enter Tibet, and general travel agencies do not accept them. Individual mild symptoms can be consulted by a doctor first.

2. You can take some Rhodiola oral liquid 7 days in advance, which is generally sold in local large pharmacies. In some places, the medicine is called Nuodikang Capsule, and the ingredient is also Rhodiola.

3. People who are healthy can enter Tibet without doing any exercise in advance. On the contrary, athletes are prone to altitude sickness when they enter Tibet. Therefore, rest more before entering Tibet and forbid strenuous exercise.

4. you can prepare some common drugs, including weishuping, cold medicine, dizziness medicine, etc. on your luggage. Don't enter Tibet if you have a bad cold.

5. Tibet belongs to minority areas and is a stranger. In addition, not all tourist routes can be taken. It is recommended to consult the local travel agencies in Tibet before entering Tibet and take a group tour.

6. Before you enter Tibet, you can find more websites that introduce Tibet, check the guide to Tibet and tourist routes, and get a brief understanding of Tibet. I recommend you to visit China Tibet Tourism Network, which provides the latest local information, tourist routes and guides.

7. There are only four state-owned banks in Tibet, namely Bank of China, China Construction Bank, Agricultural Bank of China and Industrial and Commercial Bank of China. Other commercial banks don't. In addition, there are ATM machines for withdrawing money in Lhasa, but there are few in the lower areas. Therefore, it is recommended that the group fee be paid in cash, and the consumption during the period of Tibet can be withdrawn from the local ATM in Lhasa.

8. Avoid eating a lot before entering Tibet, and reduce smoking and drinking.

9. If you have friends who have gone to Tibet, you can ask them for some information.

After entering Tibet:

1. When entering Tibet for the first time, ordinary tourists may have slight dizziness, brain swelling and chapped mouth. This is a normal phenomenon. Don't take oxygen immediately. Lhasa is only 365 meters. How can you bear more scenic spots with higher altitude than this? If you really can't stand it and have severe vomiting and breathing difficulties, you can seek help from the travel agency that signed up for the tour or go to the local hospital for treatment.

2. Tibet is a special region with limited reception conditions. Many tourists from big cities are picky when staying in local hotels. Tibet is not yet a fully open area, and the number of star-rated hotels is relatively small. Many hotels have failed to obtain nationally recognized star-rated licenses because of new decoration and opening, or because of their national style. The star rating standard of hotels in Tibet is also lower than that in the mainland. All hotel facilities, software and hardware can't be measured from the mainland's perspective, and hot water, service or dining will be unsatisfactory. Please accept this special situation.

3. Visitors to Tibet have a strong interest in the Potala Palace. The state stipulates that the number of visitors to the Potala Palace is limited to 2,3 per day, and the visiting time is limited. Therefore, considering the special reasons of Potala Palace, some travel agencies will adjust the browsing order of the scenic spots on that day, hoping that tourists will understand.

4. The words and deeds about political issues and ethnic and religious issues, please protect yourself, and don't talk big.

5. Don't pick plants and kill animals at will during your stay in Tibet, which is trampling on the holy land.

6. Tibet has a plateau climate. It may be sunny in some places and it may snow or rain heavily in some places. Therefore, it may have an impact on the tour route, and tourists should be psychologically prepared.

7. It is impolite to take photos of local Tibetan compatriots without permission during your stay in Tibet.

8. Please remember not to leave the group to watch the celestial burial. Inadvertently, it will anger the local people and cause unnecessary trouble.

9. Many tourists don't know much about the west. Tibet belongs to the Tibetan autonomous region, and Tibetan compatriots are very friendly. When they meet, they usually greet "Zhaxidele", which means good luck! Therefore, smiling greetings are essential.

To sum up, what I heard before I entered Tibet was not as good as what I saw after I entered Tibet. If you have never been to Tibet, why not travel to Tibet in 211? Tibet tourism in 211 will be waiting for you at any time! I wish you a pleasant journey.
