When is the best time to go to Tibet?

June is the most suitable month. Do not go during the rainy season or after the rainy season as the potential risks are high. I suggest you take a circular route. Enter Tibet via the Sichuan-Tibet Line, and then leave by train. It will take at least fifteen days before and after. You can take Chengdu and start from there, go west along National Highway 318, pass Erlang Mountain, Luding Bridge, Kangding, Litang, cross the Jinsha River Bridge, and enter the territory of Tibet. Arrive at Mangkang, from there go to Bangda, go south to Nujiang River at 72 Turns, Suo County, take a close look at Ranwu Lake, Bomi, overlook Namjagbarwa Peak, Yixiantian Waterfall, Lulang Grand Canyon, Linzhi, Mira Shankou, Mozhugongkar, Lhasa. This road is the most beautiful scenery in Tibet and must not be missed. Therefore, it is recommended that you take the bus in sections so that you can savor it carefully. Of course, if you can get a few friends to rent an off-road vehicle, the cost will be higher, but it’s definitely worth it. After arriving in Lhasa, you must visit the Shannan area, which is the birthplace of Tibetan civilization, and the Mount Everest area in the back of Tibet, which is the absolute roof of the world. Finally, take a train from Lhasa to leave Tibet along the Qinghai-Tibet Line. This circular route avoids repeated routes, allows for a variety of experiences, and is in line with economic principles. Generally speaking, it will cost one person about six to seven thousand to go this way. As the saying goes, when traveling, prosperity and frugality depend on people. When going to the plateau, you should pay attention to the weather. It is very important to choose the season. July, August and September are the best seasons for traveling in Tibet, but they are also the rainy season. Especially during the rainy season, the Sichuan-Tibet Highway is a section prone to debris flows, landslides, landslides, and landslides, with high potential risks. Therefore, it is safest to choose to go before the rainy season. Because after a winter of severe cold, the roads and mountains are frozen solid and the safety factor is high. Although it does not rain after the rainy season, after the baptism of rain, the high temperature in summer and the muddy roads make the journey more difficult. The mountains are loose and landslides may occur at any time. occurs, reducing the safety factor. When you go out, safety comes first. I recommend that you end your trip before the end of June. Of course, when the rainy season comes, there will be regrets if you can’t see Mount Everest. The second is how to face altitude sickness. Being calm, not agitated, excited, impatient, and not tired is enough to resist any altitude sickness. Of course, necessary medicines must be prepared in advance, such as antipyretics, analgesics, antidiarrheals, anti-inflammatory drugs, and rhodiola rosea. Whether it is Rhodiola rosea oral liquid or capsules, you must start taking it one week before departure. The function of Rhodiola rosea is to increase the oxygen content in the blood and help the body adapt to the local environment as soon as possible. When you reach the plateau, drink butter tea and highland barley wine. , eating tsampa can all help you adapt to the environment as quickly as possible. Third, due to the plateau climate, there is a large temperature difference between morning and evening. No matter when you go, you must bring warm clothing, such as a down jacket. Keeping warm is also an effective way to resist altitude sickness. A cold at high altitude can be extremely lethal and even life-threatening, so keep warm. Take lots of photos, and if you have a digital camera, bring extra batteries.
