In the closest place to heaven, encounter the real Tibet

[Introduction]: Tibet is the "Roof of the World," boasting magnificent natural landscapes (snow-capped mountains, lakes, canyons, grasslands), mysterious Tibetan Buddhist culture, and simple folk customs. Nyingchi is known as the "Jiangnan of Tibet," Shannan is the birthplace of Tibetan culture, Lhasa is the center of faith and history, and Yamdrok Lake is a model of the holy lake on the plateau. Eight days is enough to experience the natural wonders, deeply experience Tibetan culture, adapt to the plateau environment, and avoid excessive fatigue. ⛺ [Must-Visit Local Spots]: Potala Palace: Symbol of Tibet, a World Cultural Heritage Site, and the winter palace of the Dalai Lamas. White Palace (government affairs), Red Palace (religion). Tips: Reservations are required in advance, photography is prohibited, there are many steps which can easily cause altitude sickness, and it is recommended to visit in the morning. Yamdrok Lake: One of the three holy lakes in Tibet, a plateau barrier lake shaped like a "coral branch." The lake water changes in blue-green with the light, and Yamdrok Lake can be overlooked from the Gampala Pass. Namtso Lake: Saltwater lake (4,718m above sea level), the "Heavenly Lake" of Tibet, a sacred place in the hearts of Tibetans. Jokhang Temple: The core of Tibetan Buddhism, the "center of the universe" for Tibetans, built under the auspices of Princess Wencheng. It enshrines a life-size statue of the 12-year-old Sakyamuni! 🛬 [Travel Guide]: D1: Arrive in Lhasa, check into the hotel, and take a high-altitude adaptation rest D2: Lhasa--Potala Palace--Jokhang Temple--Barkhor Street, stay in Lhasa D3: Lhasa--Kadinggou Scenic Area--Sejila Mountain Pass--Lulang Forest--Lulang International Town, stay in Lulang International Town D4: Lulang International Town--Benri Holy Mountain Scenic Area--Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon--View Mount Namjagbarwa--Buddha Palm Sand Dunes--Nyingchi, stay in Nyingchi City D5: Nyingchi City--Drive along the Nyang River--5A Scenic Area Holy Lake Basumtso--Lake Heart Island--Drive along the Lhasa River--Lhasa D6: Lhasa--Gampala Mountain Pass--Holy Lake Yamdrok Lake--Karola Glacier (filming location of the movie Red River Valley)--Lhasa, stay in Lhasa D7: Lhasa--280 km--Namtso Tashi Peninsula--20 km--Nagenla Mountain Pass--200 km--Lhasa, stay in Lhasa D8: Lhasa airport/train station transfer 🏨 [Accommodation Guide]: Lhasa Recommendation: The St. Regis Lhasa Resort, excellent location Sosong Village Recommendation: Peach Rhythm Hotel (Sosong Branch).
