A trip to Tibet is definitely an adventure that gets the blood pumping and the heart racing!

I'm back now, and I'm here to share with you loads of useful information to help you navigate this mysterious land! 🚗 Transportation: Want to reach heaven directly? Fly from Chengdu to Lhasa Gonggar Airport, and right outside gate number three, there's a bus waiting for you! It's 30 yuan per person, super convenient to purchase online, or just sort it out on the spot. The bus's final stop is the Minshan Airline Hotel, right next to the Potala Palace, and the return trip is from the same location, so convenient! 🗺️ Itinerary: On the first day, we'll visit the Tibet Museum to immerse ourselves in the profound Tibetan culture. Then we'll head to Nanshan Park to enjoy the stunning natural scenery. On the second day, we're going to the Potala Palace for a pilgrimage, to feel the solemnity and sanctity. There's also the Post Office in the Sky, Potala Palace Square, Yaowang Mountain, Barkhor Street, and more, making your trip fulfilling and fun. Next, we have the exciting five-day Everest route waiting for you to challenge! 🏞️ Attractions: Remember to book in advance for the Tibet Museum, it's free to visit! The viewing platform on the top floor offers a panoramic view of the Potala Palace, simply breathtaking! Nanshan Park is also free, and once you reach the top, you can take in all the beautiful scenery, but be sure to pay attention to the time for ascending. The Potala Palace is a must-visit. Book your tickets in advance, 100 yuan in the off-season, 200 yuan in the peak season. It's hard to book an official guide, so it's recommended to find a private guide at the entrance. There's also the Jokhang Temple, Yamdrok Lake, Karola Glacier, Manla Reservoir, Everest Base Camp, and more, each place filled with mystery and beauty. 💡 Tips: When going to Tibet, be sure to bring the necessary medicines, ibuprofen, and glucose are essential! For those who get motion sickness, remember to bring motion sickness medicine, and don't forget the cold medicine. As for oxygen, if you're in good health, you might not need it, but it's still best to have a bottle just in case. In terms of clothing, Lhasa might be okay, but Everest and Namtso are super cold, so don't skimp on the thick down jackets, windbreakers, and cotton pants! Also, take good care of your skin with proper sun protection, bring hats, and scarves. In summary, Tibet is a place full of faith and beauty, every corner is full of surprises. Next time, I'm heading straight to the Ali region to explore more unknown secrets! Come join me!
