🏞【Destination Guide】 Lhasa
🧳Pre-trip Preparation: Prepare clothes and medicines in advance. The temperature difference between day and night in Tibet is significant, so keep warm and prevent cold. Be aware of altitude sickness, stay calm, walk slowly, drink water in small amounts frequently, and rest as much as possible. Avoid strenuous exercise. Buy altitude sickness medication in advance (common ones include Rhodiola, Gaoyuanan, and Lanyang tablets, which can improve tolerance to hypoxia) as well as cold and gastrointestinal medicines. Prepare windproof and warm clothing, take altitude sickness medication as required before entering Tibet, and ensure adequate rest and a stable mindset. Not everyone will experience altitude sickness, but it is recommended to be fully prepared to prevent it.
