The winter Namtso can heal everything!

Namtso, known as the 'Heavenly Lake,' is one of the three holy lakes in Tibet. The winter Namtso is even more breathtakingly beautiful. The lake is covered with a crystal-clear blue layer of ice, reflecting the vast pure white snow mountains. The extreme match of blue and white, and the ice pushing spectacle is magnificent. All of this can heal you! Admission is free until March 15, 2024, and the round-trip bus fare for the sightseeing area is 85 yuan. The lake's altitude is 4718m, and the recommended visiting time is between 11-15 o'clock when the weather is relatively stable at noon, the lighting is good, and it's warmer. The photo fee is 10 yuan for a lamb, 50 yuan for a yak, and 50 yuan for a horse ride one way. Winter Namtso Strategy: 1. The temperature at Namtso is much lower than in Lhasa, especially in the morning and evening, so dress warmly! 2. The altitude here is a bit high, so go after your body has adapted, and just bring a small oxygen bottle. 3. The wind is strong, remember to wear a windproof coat, and don't forget your scarf, gloves, and hat. 4. Sun protection is a must, as the ultraviolet radiation on the plateau is super strong even in winter! 5. In deep winter, the lake freezes, and some ice surfaces are very thin and will break, so definitely pay attention to safety and wear anti-slip shoes. 6. Winter road conditions are more complex, self-driving is not recommended, safety first. Winter Namtso 6-Day Route: 1. Lhasa-Basum Co-Segila Pass-Lulang Forest Sea-Lulang 2.
