What are the interesting places in Tibet?

It is one thing to remember others poking fun at going to Tibet, but it is another to leave Tibet. It looked funny at that time, but it was worthwhile to change their appearance in order to go to Tibet. And I changed it because you didn't do a good job of sun protection.

No matter which province or city flies to Tibet, there is only one Gongga airport in Tibet. This airport is a dual-use airport, and photos are not allowed. In recent years, China's aviation industry has developed rapidly. J- 10, J- 1 1 fighters and higher-end fighters are parked here. Any customer who takes a photo of a military plane will be seen by the airport camera, and then I'm sorry that you will be asked to take it to the airport security room, check your ID card and delete the photo content of your mobile phone. This is a light and heavy story.

As if the road to heaven is endless, Gongga Airport is very small. If anyone has been to Lijiang airport, they will know that it is a very small airport. Out of the airport gate, the bus from Gongga Airport to downtown Lhasa stopped at the door. 30 yuan a person, left as soon as he was full. Basically, there are 100-200 people when a plane comes down, and it will take more than 1 hour if you don't queue up to buy tickets.

If you have to choose the shuttle bus on the website, the cost will probably be 200 yuan. If you want to take a taxi at the airport, the driver won't take you directly. He wants to carpool, carpool 50-50 80 yuan, you need to bargain with the driver. The time is also 1 hour to arrive in Lhasa city. Personally, I think it is more cost-effective to take the airport bus.

The airport bus takes about 1 hour to reach the city center, and then stops at the parking area for passenger vehicles of the Civil Aviation Administration on the street next to Potala Palace. After getting off, go out and go straight for 50 meters to Beijing Middle Road, then turn right for 5 minutes to the famous Potala Palace Square, where you can see the Potala Palace. Like Tiananmen Square in Beijing, you have to go through security to get to Potala Palace Square.

There is more than butter tea in Tibet. People from all provinces and cities have set up shops in Tibet, especially Sichuan restaurants, snack bars and noodle restaurants all over the streets. In addition, there is a famous food street, all for eating. If you arrive at the hotel, as long as you live in the city, you can order takeout online, and the courier brother will send it to you enthusiastically, which shows that the express delivery in China is developing very well, and even Lhasa is full of couriers.

About the cost of bus and taxi in the main city of Lhasa: No.65438 +0 yuan Coin, from No.65438 +0 to No.24, passing through the urban area and suburbs of Lhasa respectively, take the No.65438 +0 yuan bus and take as many stops as you want. Taking a taxi in urban areas is basically the case of 10 yuan. Those exceeding 10 yuan will be charged after leaving Lhasa.

About accommodation: There are more than 1000 star-rated hotels and 100 small hotels here. Check-in can be booked in advance on websites such as Qunar.com, Ctrip.com and Tuniu.com ... The key is not to choose expensive hotels or hotels with better ratings on websites, but to choose hotels close to scenic spots, such as how far is it from Potala Palace? How far is it from Jokhang Temple? Use this as a reference for the hotel. Of course, from the cost point of view, staying in a five-star hotel is not necessarily comfortable, and staying for two or three hundred is not necessarily sleepless.

As for the Internet, Tibet, including Lhasa, has only 3G networks. After leaving the city, there are no 3G networks in many places, as estimated by China Telecom and China Unicom. Potala Palace, Red Palace has network shielding. All brands of mobile phones and network operators have no network near the Red Palace.

The Potala Palace has 13 floors, and currently it has 12 floors open to the public. There is also a golden dome that is not open to the public. Tickets for Potala Palace should be booked two days in advance, otherwise they can't be booked. After the electronic tickets are booked, you will have time to visit. Theoretically, the first ticket inspection takes 20-40 minutes (including taking photos). The third exchange of electronic tickets for real tickets is regarded as admission. The retail price of the ticket to the palace in Buda is 300 yuan, and the travel agency buys the cheapest 215; Visitors who enter the Potala Palace with the group will be allowed to visit 1 hour only after their electronic tickets are changed into real tickets and scanned into the Red Palace, and must exit after 1 hour. If you are a private tourist, you can spend unlimited time. Because the Red Palace is full of Buddha statues made of gold, pagodas and rubies, both pagodas and Buddha statues are embedded with jade, and it is not allowed to take photos, wear hats and sunglasses to show respect for the Buddha statues.

There are many cameras in every hall of the Potala Palace at night, and everyone goes in under the surveillance of the cameras. The whole visit time is expected to be 2.5 hours from the main entrance to the back door. It is not recommended that individuals buy tickets to visit, and no one explains it. If you go in, you can only take a cursory look, and it's easy to get lost. Without leadership, it is like entering a maze, and the Potala Palace has no turning back. When you go in, you can only go straight and follow the tour guide, but without paying the tour guide, the tour guide will tell you rudely, "Please don't follow my tour group, or I will charge."

The horn of the Fifth Dalai Lama in Jokhang Temple began to be built. It is one of the most famous temples in Tibet and the one with the most incense. There are countless pilgrims every day, and tickets to 85 yuan; There are armed police patrolling around the temple, which requires security check. You need an ID card and tickets to enter the temple.

The normal journey of the whole temple is 20 minutes from downstairs to the second floor upstairs; If there is a tour guide to explain, it is estimated that 1 half an hour; The advantage of being with the tour guide is that you can listen to the history and the origin of each Buddha statue. If you don't mess with the tour guide yourself, basically you can only worship Buddha when you see it.

Jokhang Temple Morning Jinding Jokhang Temple belongs to the pious time for Tibetans to worship Buddha. If you go to Jokhang Temple in the morning, try not to join the group. Group members belong to tourists and are treated differently from pilgrims who burn incense. Pilgrims can enter the house to burn incense, and tourists can only watch from a distance but not from a close distance to worship Buddha. During the day, it is time for tourists to visit. Some important Buddha statues made of gold are not open, and the door of the house is locked, so you can only stand at the door and look.

If you want to make a wish or worship Buddha, it is suggested to go in the morning and follow the pilgrims in. Then there is a small kettle selling ghee at the door, which contains ghee. The lamp oil in Jokhang Temple is ghee, not sesame oil in the mainland. The wrong sesame oil may extinguish the wick.

In addition, countless Tibetans kowtowed at the entrance of Jokhang Temple, and then some villages brought all kinds of highland barley food as tributes. It is shocking to watch them kowtow devoutly, prostrate themselves on the ground, then get up and kneel down and repeat their actions.

Jokhang Temple Jokhang Temple is much smaller than Jokhang Temple, and the incense is not as prosperous as Jokhang Temple. If you are basically interested, you can spend ten minutes after visiting Jokhang Temple before going to Jokhang Temple. Distance between the two temples: Jokhang Temple is behind Jokhang Temple, walk backwards along the sidewalk, cross Beijing Middle Road on the overpass, and then go straight up. It takes about 10 minutes to walk from Jokhang Temple to Jokhang Temple.

The deities enshrined in Xiao Zhao Temple are said to be the dowry brought by Princess Wencheng when she entered Tibet. It has a history of 1300 years. A few words can be inserted about Princess Wencheng: Princess Wencheng is actually not a princess, but the daughter of Li Shimin's uncle Li Daozong. As for Li Daozong, he was described as a traitor in the novel Xue Dongzheng in the Tang Dynasty, but he was actually a great loyal minister. Princess Wencheng, whose Chinese name is Li Hongyan, was later dubbed Princess Wencheng, and later married Tibetan Tubo Songzan Gambu. Songtsan Gampo was the 33rd Zanpu of the Tubo Dynasty, and was later called "Tibetan King". There are statues in all the halls.

Yaowangshan Yaowangshan is opposite Potala Palace.

Wang Yao can only be regarded as a hill in front of Potala Palace, and mountaineering is free. You can take photos of Potala Palace on the mountain.

This street is like a pedestrian street unique to all cities, selling small commodities, various Tibetan items and Buddhist props. There is a snack street and a bar street near Barkhor Street.

Sera Temple Sera Temple is not the most famous temple in Tibet, but it is one of the closest temples to Lhasa. Take bus no.7, 4. 1 km from Potala Palace. The highlight of Sera Temple is the Buddhist Debate Competition between 1-5 and 14:00- 15:00 every week. The layman can't read it. The young monk and the old monk, the young monk and the young monk argued endlessly. It looks like a fight, but it doesn't. People who are interested can visit it.

In addition, there is a large-scale cultural performance "Princess Wencheng" at 9: 00 every night. The fare is 300 yuan per person, but you have to book tickets in advance to get a seat. The performance lasted for 2 hours. People who like to watch stage plays can join in the fun, mainly telling the story of Princess Wencheng in Tibet. Of course, most of them are tourists.

Namtso, the sacred lake of Tibet, strictly speaking, Namtso refers to Namtso National Park in a broad sense and Namtso Lake in a narrow sense. It is 240 kilometers away from Lhasa and located in Dangxiong County. It takes four hours by car, because the speed limit of many sections is 30 km/h, and various monitoring photos are taken. If you go back and forth once a day, leave at 6: 30 in the morning, arrive at Namtso around noon 12:40, play 1 hour or return for 2 hours, and arrive in Lhasa around 19:00 in the afternoon.

The water quality in Namtso is very good. Many people choose Namtso for a two-day tour. On the first day, they went to Namtso and camped by the lake in Namtso at night. Because it is far away from the city and the light is polluted at night, the stars in the sky are clear one by one. If you have a good red circle SLR camera or astronomical glasses, it is a good choice to spend the night shooting the starry sky in Namtso, and the scenery in the morning is also beautiful.

Tickets for Namtso are purchased directly from 58 yuan. If you leave Lhasa with the group, it will cost about 228 yuan, mainly including bus transportation, no tour guide and no Chinese food.

When you arrive at Namtso Lake, if you want to take a photo with the yak by the lake, you must first negotiate the price with the owner of the yak, ranging from 100 yuan to 20 yuan. Tibetans charge 100 yuan for taking photos alone, and some have reduced their prices to 80, while others have reduced their prices to 50. 20 yuan, the best place to ride a yak and take photos, has never been clearly defined, so Tibetans set prices at will. In addition, if you take pictures of Tibetans' yaks without their consent, it will cause disputes.

Many people will have altitude sickness when they arrive in Tibet on the first day of the Tanggula mountain time plan. It is recommended not to go out. Take a good rest for one night before going out the next day. Severe altitude sickness requires oxygen inhalation. Bottled oxygen is sold in every street drugstore in Lhasa, usually one bottle in 30 yuan. This bottle of oxygen with 30 yuan can be inhaled for about 50 times, and it will be gone after use. There are also 50, 60, 80, 100 pieces of oxygen, the quality is the same, just the number of times of oxygen inhalation. There is also a self-charging oxygen inhalation device, which is a little more expensive.

You should arrange your itinerary before you go to Tibet, or you won't be able to buy tickets for some places. Many people have entered Tibet in recent years. 65,438+08-65,438+09-year-old girls dare to enter Tibet, as well as petty bourgeoisie, lovelorn, unemployed and drifting in Tibet.

On the first day, I went to the hotel to rest. The next day, I visited the Potala Palace for 2.5 hours, plus Jokhang Temple, and the whole journey was 1.5 hours. Because there are many people visiting Potala Palace, you need to book an e-ticket online two days in advance. There is time on the e-ticket. You must enter 1 hour before the specified time. If it is outdated, you must come out 1 hour after entering the Red Palace, otherwise it will be forcibly cleared out, mainly because there are too many people entering, and it is crowded inside, so you must enter according to the time plan.

Therefore, it is very important to book the prayer flags near Namtso online in advance: Qunar.com, Tuniu.com and Ctrip.com can book them, and even tour guides can book them together. The price is around 2 15-458, depending on what kind of package you choose. Tickets for Jokhang Temple can be bought at the gate on the same day. 85 yuan is alone. It is suggested that he should not join the group and go in to burn incense and worship Buddha himself. Walk fast with the group, and you can't squeeze in front of the Buddha statue.

The next day, Namtso, driving from Lhasa for 4 hours, coming back for 4 hours, playing 1.5 hours was basically gone.

At noon on the third day, you can go to Sera Temple and watch the lecturers debate the scriptures.

On the fourth day, if you are healthy, you can choose to visit Everest Base Camp. If you are in poor health, you can visit drepung monastery near Lhasa. Drepung monastery belongs to a famous temple, where several living buddhas have practiced.

Those who come to Tibet by plane on the above trip, if they are from go on road trip, are another matter. Every province has many interesting places. If you want to go to a province, it will take ten days and a half months, right? I'm afraid people in civil service positions don't have that many days, and they can't be free!

The tour of Potala Palace and Red Palace is coming to an end.

Many people cannot leave because of income or various family responsibilities. Finally, although they had the idea of leaving, they couldn't realize it. It is said that with more and more people visiting the Potala Palace, the government of the autonomous region and National Cultural Heritage Administration decided to close the museum and stop tourists from visiting the Potala Palace. So, if you don't come, there is no chance.

If you can't travel far because of income, you can actually choose to go to Tibet by train, invite three or five friends, take a soft sleeper by train, and return to 1400 yuan. And now more than 700 air tickets can fly to Tibet from the capitals of provinces and cities, even if they can't fly directly.

Yang Zhuo Yongcuo Lake's transportation expenses by plane 1.800 yuan, and 200 yuan's accommodation expenses are shared for one day 1.000 yuan, which is very good for five days. Four people order a meal for more than 200 yuan. Tickets for Potala Palace are 300 yuan, Jokhang Temple is 85 yuan, Jokhang Temple is 50 yuan, Namtso Lake is 58 yuan, and the local transportation fee is capped at 200 yuan. You can go anywhere you want by bus/kloc-0 yuan. If the total cost does not exceed 5000 yuan, you can take a trip and take a walk. Why not?

Mode of transportation in Tibet during question and answer time

First of all, there is enough time. You can choose to take the train to Lhasa at Xining Railway Station, 1 day, and the essence of the whole Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is also here. Trains from all over the country come to Xining and then stop in Xining-Lhasa. Sightseeing along the way: Hoh Xil, Northern Tibet Prairie, Nyainqentanglha Mountain and other majestic attractions. The train ticket is not expensive, and the hard sleeper is 495/ piece.

Time: about 20 hours.

Second, the plane, in fact, air tickets are really cheap now. If the tourist season in Tibet is staggered every year (May -65438+ 10), the air ticket to Lhasa will be 500-600, May -65438+ 10.

During the tourist season, air tickets are relatively expensive, economy class tickets are basically full price tickets, and Chengdu/Chongqing round-trip tickets are basically at 2500 (non-cheap small airlines), but airplanes are good at saving time.

Third, driving (carpooling/chartered car), whether you are an off-road vehicle, a car or a business car, the way to Tibet now can only be described in one sentence, excellent, Alto can get on, and it doesn't matter what car. In terms of cost, take 3 18 as an example. Chengdu-Lhasa 2 100KM, with a charge of 200 (Chengdu-Ya 'an only). The cost of gas depends on your car. General off-road vehicle 1 yuan, 1 km.

So you can estimate the cost. It is best for four people to share the cost of a car. Then the two old drivers took turns driving and stopped wherever they wanted.

Then rent a car by car in Tibet, it's expensive. Regular coaches are calculated by kilometers. If you have a small partner, you can join. No small partners can choose carpooling.

People who ride bicycles (bicycles, motorcycles) are very powerful, deeply admired, time-consuming and need strong willpower.

Five, hiking, now very good, basically hiking+hitchhiking, young is good.

Is Tibet poor?

1. Where there are rich people, there are poor people everywhere.

People in Tibet want to see which places, such as some places with inconvenient transportation, have not been developed into tourist attractions and there is no way to get in and out. Do you think people in that place can have money?

3. You said that your classmate in Tibet spends a lot of money, doesn't care about the price, and just throws it away after eating, which shows that he is poor at two o'clock, has never lived a poor life, has little family and social beauty education, and doesn't know that money is hard to come by.

Don't underestimate some farmers in Tibet. They dig up all kinds of cordyceps and sell all kinds of Tibetan medicine every year. They are lucky in a year, and they have dug a lot, which is also a good income. In addition, if they have good roads, beautiful scenery, various incomes and government subsidies, they are actually much richer than most farmers in our plain areas.
