20220611 In the afternoon: 1. Direct bus, free of charge, located in the south west of the Potala Palace, outside the west gate of the Potala Palace Square. 2. This is a viewing platform for shooting the Potala Palace. The best photo point is the corner of the viewing platform closest to the Potala Palace. You need to queue up to shoot in turn. If there are many people, the queue time is not short. If there are fewer people, you can finish shooting in 10 minutes. 3. It is also a 50 yuan pattern attraction, many people hold the banknote and the Potala Palace behind the frame, but with the mobile phone to shoot, focus on the banknote, the background will be blurred; focus on the background, the banknote will be blurred. So it is recommended to focus on the streets in front of the Potala Palace, so that the banknote and the Potala Palace will be clearer at the same time.

The white tower near the Potala Palace is also one of the important components of the Potala Palace. There are three big white towers. The close view is the white tower of Yaowang Mountain, the middle is the cross-street tower, and the red mountain white tower in the distance. The three white towers form a gateway to Lhasa City. The best angle of the white tower is at the highest point of the Yaowang Mountain Observation Deck. Here you can shoot all 3 white towers. Many of the tourists who take personal photo photos or wedding photos will be photographed here. In addition, the cross-street white tower in the middle of the road can also be seen at close range. The snow-white tower body, the golden tower top, looks like three high monks quietly meditating in Zen. It is recommended to come over in the morning to take pictures of the beautiful scenery of the golden roof of the Potala Palace, and you can also take pictures of the sunset in the evening. The white tower lights up at night, and there is also a kind of holy god's glory.

The Yaowang Mountain Viewing Platform diagonally opposite the Potala Palace, here is the best angle to shoot the Potala Palace, and the scene on the back of the current version of 50 yuan is from here. Climb up the Yaowang Mountain Observation Deck and feel the power from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Feel the grandeur of the Potala Palace at close range, the sky is pure without a cloud, and the towering Potala Palace seems to be the closest place to heaven.

Many of the popular classic photography works of the cloth palace were from here, including the Potala Palace on the back of the country's 50 yuan was taken at the Yaowangshan observation deck. You can go up in the early morning before the sun comes out and take pictures of the Potala Palace, where the first rays of light shine. I booked tickets for the Potala Palace on the same day, waited for the sunrise to enter the Potala Palace to visit, and arrived at the Yaowang Mountain Observation Deck before sunrise to shoot the Potala Palace that woke up in Wanzhang Yunxia. Because it is winter, the observation deck tourists are not many, the east fish belly white, the people on the observation deck began to surge, everyone raised their hands of "long guns", "squeaking" shutter sound one after another. Under the gaze of the people, a red sun gradually broke through the clouds and spilled the golden sun on the golden roof of the Potala Palace. Standing on the ground with a pattern on the back of the 50 yuan face value RMB, it was still very meaningful to usher in the first ray of light of the day. When you record this moment with your phone or camera, you will not stop sighing: "incredible, so beautiful"!
