April in Lhasa - Drepung Monastery

April in Lhasa - the peach blossoms in Drepung Monastery are incomparable On the first day of Qingming Festival, we got off the plane and put down our luggage at the hotel and rushed to Pabongka. The peach blossoms are really beautiful. The vicissitudes of the branches and roots are accompanied by the pink peach blossoms, which makes the tone look high-end. But the only drawback is that every peach tree is filled with people, and you often have to wait for twenty or thirty minutes to take a photo. The flowers are beautiful, but the experience is zero. The next day we went to Sera Monastery, which we had been to many times. We stayed there for an hour. Since it was still early, we went to Drepung Monastery. We went to Drepung Monastery because we couldn't remember much about our previous two visits. But this seemingly random reason brought me the biggest surprise of this trip. Now I will tell you the strategy directly: After arriving at Drepung Monastery, buy a ticket first, 60 yuan per person. Give the Didi driver two yuan for parking, and he will take you to the parking lot on the hillside, which is where you start to enter the temple. ‼ ️Key point: Don’t think about walking up from the ticket office, it’s too tiring! ! ! We arrived at Drepung Monastery at 4pm that day. The guy who bought the tickets kindly reminded me that many of the temple's worship sites would be closed around 5pm (I think), and asked me to think carefully about it. We didn't come here to worship, we just came to take pictures, so we bought tickets and entered without hesitation. Super important‼ ️‼ ️: After getting off the car at the parking lot on the hillside, you will see a small booth where tickets will be checked. After checking your ticket at this booth, walk up the steps to the mountain. After about ten to twenty meters, there is a road on the right. Go straight along the road for about fifty to sixty meters, or a hundred meters. You will see a large black stone door on the left. Go in! ! The peach blossoms in the picture are right there! The point is that there is no one! There is really no one! There aren't any tourists!
