Lhasa travel guide 6-day tour guide to Lhasa at the end of June

By the way, how to get to the 500-kilometer no-man's land in Tibet by car?

First, let's discuss what 500 kilometers of uninhabited land is, find it out, and then come back and talk about how to spend it more accurately. Please see the picture below:

(The author Yunnan entered the green leaves at Kunlun Mountain Pass)

There are two main routes to Tibet: Yunnan, Green, Sichuan and Green.

(500 kilometers of unmanned map land)

The so-called entry and exit of Yunnan means entering Tibet from Yunnan Province and leaving Qinghai Province. Sichuan's entry into Qinghai means entering Tibet from Sichuan and then leaving Qinghai Province. This so-called Qing Chu starts from Qinghai, which is the classic route of the trip to Tibet, and leaves Qinghai to complete the trip to Tibet.

(Schematic diagram: Yunnan entry and exit refers to entering Tibet from Yunnan Province and leaving Qinghai Province)

(Schematic diagram: Sichuan entry and exit refers to entering Tibet from Sichuan Province and leaving Qinghai Province)

Tibet drives by car, if there is no special task, it is generally centered on Lhasa, the capital of Tibet. When we arrive in Lhasa, we will rest and book a branch. The next step is to go to Ali, base camp or Qinghai, and it will be confirmed when we arrive in Lhasa.

That year, we went to Lhasa, decided to go to the base camp, and then went to Dangxiong.

Dangxiong is because of Namtso, the second largest holy lake in Tibet. Many people have to finish this homework. Then we reach that song, and then we walk through Amdo. Then we will enter the theme of this article, 500 kilometers of uninhabited land.

This road, National Highway 109, runs through the whole course, covering Amdo, Tuotuo, Hoh Xil, Wudaoliang, Tanggula, Kunlun Mountain Pass and a series of challenging places. It is a magical existence, surprising, frightening, exciting and worrying.

(it's a demon, scared, scared, excited, worried)

Of course, some friends came out from Dangxiong, left Namtso, went back the same way and set foot on their way home. However, most people don't want to go back the same way, because since the temptation of Namtso is so strong, it would be a pity to go back. People who have walked 3 18 despise going back, that is, they despise their self-confidence. So, go to the East to welcome more beautiful things. Both Hoh Xil and Qinghai Lake are ahead, and we can't give up these beautiful scenery.

(In the summer of August, in Sanjiangyuan, the author wore winter clothes)

As can be seen from the schematic diagram of the 500-kilometer no-man's land, the so-called 500-kilometer no-man's land S refers to Hoh Xil and the southern foot of Kunlun Mountain at high altitude, which is located in Qinghai Province, not Tibet.

Why is this place empty? The main reason is that the altitude in this area is generally above 5000 meters, the air oxygen content is low and the climate is changeable. It can almost be said that the sunshine is strong for three days at any time, and it turns cold for a few days at any time. There are many lakes in this area, but most of them are saline-alkali water, and their living conditions are very bad. Land can't be planted, water can't be drunk, and oxygen in the air is not enough to maintain health, so people can't live. As a result, no one formed American land.

(The author is driving with oxygen in Tuotuo River)

That year, we went to Tibet, left Namtso in Dangxiong and went to Golmud. We plan to go from Namtso via Naqu, Amdo and Tuotuo River to Golmud, and then from Golmud to Qinghai Lake.

It is nearly 1000 km from Nacuo to Golmud. It takes two days to drive in Tibetan areas. In this regard, it is irrational and dangerous for it to try to travel day and night. When we decided to stop over, we suddenly found that the location was not arranged, and the difficulty of choosing appeared.

This bad arrangement means that the halfway place is not suitable. Tuotuo River, Hoh Xil, Wudaoliang and Kunlun Mountain are all dangerous areas with high anti-terrorism frequency.

Tuohe River and Wudaoliang River. In two famous places of 109 national highway, there is a saying circulating on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau: When you reach Kunlun Mountain, you will reach the gate of hell. When you arrived at Tuotuo River, I didn't know whether you were dead or alive. When he reached Wudaoliang, he cried his father and shouted his mother. Folk proverbs show that these places are very dangerous.

Wudaoliang, Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province, is located in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, a cold area in the west. Generally, altitude sickness is very obvious in Wudaoliang, a forbidden place where people live longer. Because of the altitude and topography, the air is not smooth, and because of the high mercury content in the soil, less vegetation and low oxygen content in the air, it is considered to be the most difficult area on the Qinghai-Tibet line.

Since the location is not good, why do you want to pass through here? Is there no other way?

No, actually, there is no other way. Unless you go to Ali, we are going to Xinjiang, and the direction is wrong. You have to cross Golmud. This line seems to be fixed and cannot be changed;

From Naqu to Amdo, go east along 109 National Road, cross Tanggula, cross Kunlun Mountain Pass, and then cross the mountains to Golmud, Qinghai.

Friends may find that Golmud is mentioned repeatedly in this article, so why go to Golmud?

Why? Golmud City in Qinghai Province is an important node in Tibet. It can be said that reaching Golmud is equivalent to coming out of the danger of high anti-hypoxia, and there will be no higher mountains than Tibet below. It's safe, even the trip to Tibet is over. Because Golmud is less than 3000 meters above sea level.

There is an explanation in geography textbooks: China's landform is a three-level trapezoid, and entering Golmud is equivalent to the next level.

(The landform of China is a three-level trapezoid, and entering Golmud is equivalent to the next level. )

In fact, it is not easy to get out of Golmud. It has to go through many mountain tests. All the cars are running above 4600 meters above sea level, Amdo, Tuotuo, Hoh Xil and Wudaoliang.

(Hoh Xil)

Friends can still remember that 20 18 12.27, the truck driver is small? Two fresh lives fell, and the accident site was Wudaoliang. Cause of death: high altitude hypoxia.

Everyone who has been to Wudaoliang has the same experience. It will be safe around them.

Wudaoliang is a small market town with railway stations, gas stations, restaurants and accommodation. The resident population is 600. You can. I don't see why Wu Daoliang is not suitable, because you don't think your car is driving on the roof of the real world. Some people describe Tibet as the roof of the world, which is a general concept. Lhasa is only 3000 meters above sea level. Although there are too many mountains over 5000 meters above sea level in Tibet, National Highway 308 also presents a high altitude, which makes passers-by relish.

Please look at the picture below. This is a schematic diagram of Tibetan mountain peaks passing through National Highway 3 18:

(Schematic diagram of Zangfeng crossing National Highway 3 18)

National Highway 38 runs through the highest mountain in Tibet, 50 13 meters in Milla Mountain and 5008 meters in Dongdashan Mountain. I was lucky to pass by.

National Highway 38 crosses Milla Mountain 50 13m, and Dongdashan Mountain 5008m only crosses this height along Panshan Highway.

Tuohe River, Hoh Xil, Wudaoliang Mountain and Kunlun Mountain all walked for a long time at an altitude of more than 5,000 meters. It takes a day!

It is over 5000 meters above sea level. I didn't mean to belittle you in this article. I am 3 18, but these two heights above 5000 meters are not the same thing at all.

Due to the long time, there are many disasters in Wudaoliang.

(National Highway 109 is the main channel for Tibet's material supply)

National Highway 09 is also the main route leading to Tibet. Tibet provides supplies to the United States. It has traveled thousands of miles at an altitude of more than 5,000 meters. Wudaoliang and Tuotuo River. I think the climate in this area is weird and the environment is bad!

No matter how hard it is, it can't stop people. So, how to spend 500 kilometers of no man's land in Tibet?

I noticed that many friends mentioned the problem of car refueling. The reason is that in the 500-kilometer no-man's land in the United States, a tank of oil can usually travel about 400 kilometers on the road. Running on the Kunlun Mountain, or climbing the mountain, may not work. Math problems are well done, typical sitting at home chatting.

In fact, the service problems of National Highway 109, such as automobile oil and maintenance, etc. This is no longer a problem. Yes, this area is no man's land, but there are many service nodes along the expressway, which is no longer no man's land. There will be supply stations, inns, restaurants and so on in the distance.

In my opinion, how to cross the 500 km no man's land in the United States?

2. Take Gao Yuankang as an example. This medicine may be useless, but it has a very important psychological effect. Don't take the red brocade, it's useless.

Headache, dizziness, shortness of breath, chest tightness, insomnia, purple lips, loss of appetite, general fatigue, muscle aches, etc. It is a normal phenomenon in this respect.

Abnormal S is a serious reaction, such as vomiting, high altitude pulmonary edema or brain edema, and the heart pulse is high for a long time. Don't be calm. At this time, you can go to the hospital (clinic) without delay. The local medical staff are experts in coping with altitude sickness.

4, the same tone, do not do strenuous exercise, let the body slowly adapt to the environment.

(The author and his wife took a group photo in Hoh Xil)

Eating something that local people like to eat, such as butter tea, is good for relieving rising grievances.

6. You won't get tired of the land behind the 500km driverless road in Tang Ran. You can have a rest when you need it. If you don't feel well, you can have a rest. When resting, drive to a crowded place, against the wind, and drive down the mountain where conditions permit. It would be better if we could find a place with a lower altitude.

7. The most important thing is: don't catch a cold. Because the journey is tiring, it is hot and cold, and the weather is changeable, it is easy to cause a cold, so be sure to pay attention. After a cold, altitude sickness will be aggravated.

Don't listen to others. This is nonsense. Just because someone walks over five beams doesn't mean you're okay. Xiaohui, a truck driver, is an old driver and often runs this road. Be careful of a ship that has gone through thousands of years. What should be prepared should be prepared, and what should be prevented should be strengthened. You are yourself, others are others.

Answer: How to spend 500 kilometers in no man's land and where to drive in Tibet? And here, not necessarily useful, for reference only.

I wonder which way you chose to go to Tibet? We are in Tibet, and we are going to road trip at the end of May. Now we are on our way.

If there is enough space, you have to prepare some clothes in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and almost all of them can be used. Wear down jacket at high altitude and short sleeves at low altitude. For example, on June 5th, we were in Litang County, a high city in the world (more than 4,000 meters above sea level). Sooner or later, we will wear down jackets. The next day, we were in Batang (2600 meters above sea level). The temperature is 29 degrees, and we all feel hot in short sleeves. So I can only take clothes all year round and take good-looking photos!

2. Five-day tour of Lhasa tourist attractions

In Lhasa on the 5th, in addition to the temples in the city, it's best to arrange a chartered bus to visit the surrounding area for a few days.

On the first day, the weather is fine, so you can go to Wang Yao to watch the sunrise in the morning. Visit Potala Palace-Jokhang Temple-Barkhor Street. It is difficult to make an appointment at Potala Palace in summer. Every day from 14: 30 to 15: 00, you can make an online reservation 7 days in advance, but almost once every second. You can also make an appointment at the entrance of Potala Palace one day in advance. The next day, I visited drepung monastery and debated the scriptures in Sera Temple (usually at 3 pm). At night, you can enjoy the night view of Potala Palace Square around 9 pm. On the third day, we chartered a car or shared a car and arrived in Shigatse, Shan Zong Castle, Gangzi, Karola Glacier, Sang Kang Snow Mountain in Yongcuonaiqin, Yang Zhuo and Lhasa. On the fourth day, Tashilhunpo Temple in Shigatse became a hero. On the fifth day, Dangxiong Namco Lhasa. Mainly visit Namtso, the Holy Lake.

3. Five-day tour in Lhasa

You can go to Lhasa 202 1 in June. There is plenty of rain from June to September, which is suitable for traveling.

4. Six-day tour in Lhasa

At present, there are five routes to Tibet:-Qinghai-Tibet line, Sichuan-Tibet line south, Sichuan-Tibet line north, Yunnan-Tibet line and New Tibet line. Let me briefly introduce each line first.

1. Qinghai-Tibet line: the longest asphalt road in the world.

The Qinghai-Tibet Highway starts from Xining in Qinghai in the east and ends in Lhasa in Tibet in the west. 1950 started construction and 1954 was opened to traffic. It is the asphalt road with the highest altitude and the longest route in the world, and it is also the shortest, best and safest road leading to Tibet at present.

Qinghai-Tibet Highway is an important channel connecting Tibet and Chinese mainland. In the highway era, it undertakes the transportation task of more than 85% of materials entering Tibet and more than 90% of materials leaving Tibet. It plays an important role in the economic development and social stability of Tibet and China, and is called the lifeline of Tibet.

2. The southern section of the Sichuan-Tibet line: the most beautiful scenery.

Sometimes driving along the river in the canyon, sometimes galloping on the grassland, and sometimes winding the mountain road, the different scenery at an altitude of 2,000 meters to more than 4,000 meters is amazing, and it is worthy of being the most beautiful scenic avenue in China.

3. Northern Sichuan-Tibet Line: the original and magnificent road to Tibet.

North Sichuan Line, namely National Highway 3 17, starts from Chengdu and enters Ganzi via Ya 'an. Ann, through Luhuo, Ganzi and Dege, crossed Gangga Jinsha River Bridge and entered Tibet, then reached Bangda, the intersection of the north and south lines, and then arrived in Lhasa through Bomi and Bayi. The whole journey is 24 13km. This line is called Xiaobei Line Tourist Explorer. The other northern line runs from Chengdu to the north, from Wenchuan to National Highway 2 13, and from Brush Temple to Lhasa via Marcand and Changdu, which is an important part of National Highway 3 17.

There are endless mountains and endless waters along the northern Sichuan, and the landscape along the line is ever-changing: there are alpine canyons, endless grasslands, snowy meadows, prayer flags, Mani stone, Tibetan temples and colorful folk customs along the line, which are full of excitement and charm. It's called golden thread travel and photography lovers.

4. Yunnan-Tibet line: a passage into Tibet that combines danger, wonder and beauty.

Yunnan-Tibet Highway is a highway connecting Kunming, Yunnan Province and Lhasa, Xizang Autonomous Region. Total length of highway1930km, with little fluctuation. There are not only strange stones, tunnels and bridges, but also thin air and cold climate in the snow-capped mountains and canyons. This route was photographed by famous business travelers on the ancient tea-horse road. The Yunnan-Tibet line, which is now regarded as a world-class cross-country route by cross-country explorers, is the main channel from Yunnan to Tibet. The ancient cities of the ancient tea-horse road (such as Lijiang and Dali) and the disappearing caravan culture are integrated on this Yunnan-Tibet line.

In the past, the trip to the ancient tea-horse road in Yunnan and Tibet was a natural barrier. The hell-like Yunnan-Tibet highway passes through the paradise-like beauty. The journey to Lhasa, Yunnan, is now less than 300 kilometers, and it is still under construction and transformation. It can be said that different roads lead to different goals.

5. The highest dangerous highway in the world.

In the traditional sense, the New Tibet Highway refers to National Highway 2 19, which starts from the stone tablet in Yecheng County, Kashgar, Xinjiang, and ends at the stone tablet in Chawu Township, Lazi County, Shigatse, Tibet, with a total length of 2 140 km. This is an important route to Tibet. The average elevation of this road is above 4500 meters, and the average annual temperature is -9. There are five high mountains, 16 icebergs and 44 glaciers along the way. This is the highest hard pavement in the world, and some sections are very dangerous.

Xinjiang entered Tibet, starting from Yecheng at an altitude of 1.365 meters, reaching an average altitude of more than 4,500 meters. Oxygen has become thinner, and some people have a strong altitude sickness. Armed police on the new Tibet line rescued thousands of tourists in distress. From 20 13, it is asphalt road, and the number of donkey friends is greatly reduced. Most of them turned to other abandoned roads on the new Tibet line.

Personally, I suggest going to Tibet for the first time and taking the route of combining the southern line and the northern line. Compared with the pure northern line and the southern line, there are more scenic spots, beautiful and open natural scenery, and it is easier to see glacier snow-capped mountains. The north-south line runs alternately through Litang and Bangda. It also allows you to include all the classic scenery in one trip. The specific itinerary is as follows:

1 1 day Travel recommendation: Day 1: All places-Chengdu

The next day: Chengdu-Wenchuan-Guanyin Bridge

Day 3: Guanyinqiao Town-Onda-Seda Larong Wuming Buddhist College-sertar county

Day 4: Seda-Luhuo County-Bamei Town-Tagong Grassland-xinduqiao

Day 5: xinduqiao-Yajiang-Litang-Daocheng-Shangri-La Town

Day 6: One-day tour of Aden Scenic Area

Day 7: Aden-Daocheng-Litang-Mangkang

Day 8: Mangkang-Zuogong-Basu

Day 9: Basu-Ranwu Lake-Midui Glacier-Bomi

Day 10: Bomi-Tongmai Natural Disaster-Linzhi

Day 1 1 day: Linzhi-Gongbujiangda-Lhasa

Recommended reason: (strongly recommended)

This route is the best one to travel to Tibet. It combines the classic scenery of the southern Sichuan-Tibet line and the northern Sichuan-Tibet line. When you visit this route, you can appreciate the core beauty of both routes at the same time!
