Tibet travel guide

1. The best time to travel in Tibet is May-August. The oxygen content in the plateau is relatively rich in autumn. And the weather is relatively pleasant. It is recommended to go in July-August. Moreover, it is more convenient to move with less clothes on. Although July-August is the hottest time of the year in mainland China. The sun in Tibet is also very sunny. But the humidity there is very small. It won't give people a sultry feeling. It will be more cost-effective for newspaper groups to find local travel agencies in Tibet, such as some state-owned travel agencies. 2. Equipment, but the climate changes rapidly in plateau areas. It is best to wear a quick-drying garment (preferably short sleeves) and a long-sleeved cotton sweater outside. Enough to cope with the weather in early, middle, late and August. Of course, there must be a coat in the luggage. Can be used in high altitude areas, usually the altitude rises 1000 meters and the temperature drops by 6 degrees. If you are not hiking, you generally don't need to wear professional outdoor and wading shoes. Just comfortable flat shoes are enough. If the equipment is of good quality, you will find the importance of quality at a critical moment. There are many outdoor brands on the market now. If you drive, you'd better take a sleeping bag. Because if you need to live in the home of a fellow villager along the way. Sleeping bags can ensure your hygiene. Sun protection is a big problem. High power sunscreen products. In the plateau area closest to the sky, the sun protection factor cannot be too high. It is best to carry sunscreen spray with you, replenish water at any time, and supplement the sunscreen index. Sunglasses are essential. That sunshine, without which you will know the serious consequences. Don't forget the hat and headscarf. Multifunctional headscarf can not only block the sun, but also protect the skin in windy days. Backpackers or luggage backpackers are really smart, but their big bags make them really hard. Moreover, whether driving, taking a train or flying, there is absolutely no need to put all the clothes in a big backpack. Most of the time, you can put it in the suitcase or luggage rack. Therefore, carrying a bag of moderate size can hold enough sundries such as sunscreen products, a coat, drinking water and personal documents. The rest are in the suitcase. This will make your journey easier. 5. Replenish water Tibet is very dry. Lipstick and eye drops must be brought. And moisturizing water or spray. You'd better take a kettle. Can be supplied at any time. However, local places selling mineral water can also be seen everywhere, which is convenient. 6. Minor ailments and medicines in plain areas can not be ignored in plateau areas. In snowy plateau, a small cold may cause pulmonary edema. Drugs that should be carried with you should include: analgesics (strong drugs, even drugs that inhibit the central nervous system). At least you can have enough spirit to go to the hospital), clear gunpowder (or 2 cans of Wang Laoji every day), antibiotics, motion sickness medicine, diarrhea medicine, first aid kit, Yunnan Baiyao spray or capsule (if there is a wound, you can directly apply the powder in the capsule to the wound), Huoxiang Zhengqi, cold medicine, safflower oil. If you are driving, put some oxygen bags in the car. Never buy compressed oxygen. The effect is not good. You can bring some glucose or 2 cans of red bull a day if necessary. In addition, you can buy capsules or oral liquid containing rhodiola in local pharmacies and take it one week before entering Tibet. 7. To resist altitude sickness and enter the plateau, try to reduce the consumption of oxygen as much as possible. Don't run, walk or talk loudly. If you have a slight headache, chest tightness and difficulty breathing, don't rush to take oxygen. Because people themselves are self-protective. There will be an adaptation process to fight hypoxia. A slight reaction will quickly absorb oxygen, which is easy to produce oxygen dependence. Then your trip to Tibet must be very depressing. People will have different degrees of high reaction when they reach 2700 meters. If you take the train, the oxygen in the carriage can be ignored for the time being. If you drive. You can supplement oxygen a little before crossing the mountain pass of about 5000 meters to avoid the difficulty of the mountain pass. Three days before entering Tibet, you should take anti-reflective drugs such as Rhodiola or Nuodikang. However, in plateau areas, it is necessary to take drugs to treat hyperreflexia, such as Gao Yuanan or Gao Yuanning. Local pharmacies have oxygen supplies and drugs for hyperreflexia everywhere. Namco has low oxygen content. Take the medicine again on the day of going to Namco. In fact, Van Gogh is a demon, so don't care too much and don't ignore it too much. What does it feel like to have a high degree of opposition? When the pony crosses the river, only you can have the right to speak in person on the plateau. 8. Change some changes in Tibet. One dollar bill and ten dollar bill. Tibetans don't accept coins. It's one yuan to go to the toilet. Many children reach out for money in the scenic spot. You don't need it. If yes, sometimes a child will ask a group of children to ask you for money together. When you enter the temple to worship Buddha, you can put 10 yuan or 1 yuan paper money in the merit box according to your wishes. When shopping in Bajiao Street, you'd better give the right change, otherwise the seller won't give you change and will pester you to buy something. 9. Take a taxi in Lhasa 10 yuan, and don't bargain without taxiing. Of course, only within the city limits. In human tricycles, it's usually 3~5 per person. If you go with a tour group. To go to Namco and Shigatse, you'd better choose the bus on the left. The scenery there is good. The return trip is in the opposite direction. Most tour buses have a lifetime seat system. Besides, you'd better choose to sit in the penultimate seat. Although the rear of the car is bumpy. But tourist buses in Tibet have no air conditioning. The whole carriage has a window next to the driver, or the penultimate seat, with a window on each side. You can open the window to get some air, which is much more comfortable than stuffy. 10. The shopping guide will take you shopping. The local products sold in those tourist shops are 20% more expensive than those sold in supermarkets. Of course, if you don't have your own time to go to the supermarket, you'll have to kill yourself. It is right to buy tourist handicrafts in tourist shops. Spend more if you spend more, and buy a rest assured. For example, Tibetan Dao, dzi beads, Thangka and Nimuxiang. 1 1. Taking pictures basically all temples and palaces are not allowed to take pictures. There are too many photos to be taken of Tibet's customs, natural scenery and architectural features. I have a suggestion to take pictures of men and women. In some scenic spots, you can find a suitable place to set up a tripod, which is counterproductive. But it is best to carry a small card with you, which is convenient to carry and easy to operate. 12. The sleeping car of the T27/28 train from Beijing to Lhasa on the Qinghai-Tibet train has power supply. The hard sleeper is a fixed socket, 1 plug, and there are two plugs for every three small sleeper rooms at the passage. Limited resources. The power utilization rate is high. If you want to bring a laptop or PSP, it takes a long time to charge, so I suggest you bring a socket. Then use a long line to guide the power to your sleeper position. If you only need to charge your mobile phone, you can bring a charger, and there are also two power supplies next to the sink. You can plug the charger directly into a place where the usage rate is relatively low, which is much less likely to be taken away by others than if you put your mobile phone in an invisible place. 13. I won't talk about other folk customs, respect the living habits of local people and don't point fingers at Buddha statues. Carry high-calorie things like chocolate with you. People consume a lot of heat in plateau areas.
