A must-visit place in Lhasa. I came in June, which is considered the peak season, but there were not many people. The tour guide said that this season has a higher oxygen content and is more suitable for tourists. The visit is divided into two routes, Line 1 and Line 2. Line 1 is 200 yuan and you need to make an appointment in the mini program more than one week in advance. Line 2 is 100 yuan and it is easier to make an appointment. After the two routes are divided, they go their own way. Visitors on Line 1 cannot see Visitors on Line 2, and visitors on Line 2 cannot see Visitors on Line 1. If you want to see both, you have to make two appointments and go twice. The Potala Palace is too spectacular. You cannot take pictures inside, but it is worth a visit.
The tour guide is very dedicated, detailed explanation, rich historical knowledge, accurate time grasp, a lot of knowledge, more understanding of the Potala Palace, Jokhang Temple is also very good, give you a thumbs up 👍👍👍

The Jokhang Temple, an ancient and mysterious building, is a symbol of Tibetan history and culture. As a holy place of Tibetan Buddhism, it witness the piety and prayer of countless believers. Here, every stone, every wall, is full of a deep religious atmosphere and a sense of historical vicissitudes.
Jokhang Temple is the soul of Lhasa. The thousand-year-old temple is solemn and majestic, and the golden roof shines brightly in the sun. The Buddha statues in the temple are solemn, the murals are exquisite, the butter lamps are always burning, the Sanskrit sounds are lingering, and the power of faith is shocking. As the prayer wheels turn, the piety of believers and the awe of tourists are intertwined. This is a witness to history and a spiritual home. Every detail is sacred, making people slow down their pace involuntarily and feel the tranquility that transcends the world.

It takes two hours to drive to Lhasa. Now there are three viewing platforms, on the top of the mountain, on the hillside and by the lake, and the route is very convenient. But the viewing platform is occupied by people who charge for taking photos, and they keep urging people to leave. The scenery is still very beautiful
Yang Zhuoyu is known as the pearl of Tibet. The lake is clear, the lake is quiet and the scenery is beautiful. It is located in the southern region of Tibet, not far from Lhasa, and is a holy lake in the hearts of Tibetans. Yang Zhuoyu is attracted to countless tourists with its unique natural scenery and deep cultural heritage.

The most unforgettable thing about this trip to Lhasa was watching the large-scale stage play "Princess Wencheng". It was really shocking!
The performance used the majestic mountains and rivers as a natural curtain, the bright starry sky as the stage lights, and the 360° starry sky real scene light and shadow and 3D surround sound effects intertwined, instantly pulling me back to the legendary years of the marriage between Tang and Tibet more than 1,300 years ago. Hundreds of actors devoted themselves wholeheartedly, and every expression and every movement was full of affection, vividly interpreting the touching story of Princess Wencheng and Songtsen Gampo knowing and falling in love, recreating that magnificent history. Especially the clips of "Da Aga" and Tibetan opera performances, the unique charm of Tibetan culture was fully revealed, which feasted my eyes.
The whole plot is cleverly arranged, from Songtsen Gampo sending Lu Dongzan to Tang to propose marriage, to successfully marrying Princess Wencheng after passing the test of wisdom, to Princess Wencheng bidding farewell to Chang'an and embarking on a long journey westward after going through hardships. The plot is ups and downs and exciting, which made me deeply feel the great love spirit of Han-Tibetan harmony and beauty. When the giant background of the Potala Palace slowly appeared at the end, the audience was shocked by the magnificent scene and burst into warm applause involuntarily. This stage play is not only an audio-visual feast, but also a rare opportunity to deeply understand the historical and cultural exchanges between Han and Tibetans. You must not miss it when you come to Lhasa!
The first time I went to Lhasa, Tibet, the overall feeling was good, and I basically adapted after three days of high reaction.

The performance is great, it is highly recommended to come here to watch the performance at night after going to Tibet during the day. The actor is dedicated and still braves the rain to play. The driver's master pick-up service is well received, the mountain is cold at night, and the coat is well received. At 9 o'clock before the entrance, you can see the night view of Lhasa. The weather is good and there are actors taking photos. You can also choose to do hot air balloons. Disadvantages: Why do you have to climb so many steps down from the parking lot (3-4 floors)? The fare stalls can buy the basic 380, or buy the most high-end, and other options in the middle are meaningless.
Accompanying my father to Lhasa to realize a dream, this performance and the introduction of the daytime tour guide, let us have a deeper understanding of Tibet's past, especially the history of Princess Wencheng entering Tibet. The theater stage is grand, light and shadow and scene transformation are combined, beautiful. The actors are also acting online, so high altitude, we walk gasping, in the open air and at night such a high intensity performance is admirable.

I came to Tibet during the holidays just for Mount Everest. Mount Everest is not very interesting or playable, but this scenic spot cannot be evaluated according to the traditional sense of scenic spots. I came thousands of miles just to see Mount Everest. Although the journey is long and tiring, it still feels okay.
The Everest Scenic Area, located in the Tibet Autonomous Region of China, is a world-famous tourist attraction. It is the site of the world's highest mountain, Everest, which attracts countless tourists to visit and explore. The natural scenery in the scenic area is spectacular, and the scenery in the four seasons is different, making people linger. At the same time, it is also a paradise for many mountaineering enthusiasts, who challenge themselves here and climb the peak.

The magnificent natural landscape of Kazola Glacier attracts the eyes of countless travelers with its cold and mysterious temperament. As an important tourist attraction in Tibet, Kazola Glacier not only shows the magical power of nature, but also witness the course of the earth's climate change.
Kajola Glacier, a world of ice and snow only hundreds of meters from the road, is awe-inspiring. Glaciers shine in the sun, such as giant Tangka hanging on the mountain wall. It is not only a natural spectacle, but also a witness to culture. The movie Red River Valley was once shot here, leaving an eternal mark. Walking here, as if crossing time and space, feeling the vicissitudes of thousands of years of ice and snow. Kajola glacier is a treasure gifted by nature to mankind, worthy of our care.

Norbulingka, the "paradise" of Lhasa! Under the azure sky, Tibetan palaces are scattered in an orderly manner, with shining golden roofs and gorgeous murals. Walking through it, you will feel like traveling through time and space, with towering ancient trees and fragrant flowers. This is not only a summer palace with a long history, but also a habitat for the soul. With exquisite architecture and profound culture, every place is unforgettable! When you come to Tibet, you must visit Norbulingka to feel the charm of tranquility and sacredness~
Norbulingka is located in the western suburbs of Lhasa, next to the Tibet Museum. If you want to visit, you can go to the museum first, and then go to Norbulingka in the afternoon. It is a small park. It takes two hours to visit the whole site. The scenery is very beautiful and you can take a rest inside, which is very comfortable.

Imagine a museum filled with mysterious artifacts, this is the Tibetan Museum. It is like a time machine that takes us through the mysterious Tibet, explores its past, and learns about its culture. It was like a game, and every exhibit was a puzzle waiting for us to solve.
Located in the southeast corner of Norbulingka in Lhasa, Tibet Museum is the first modern comprehensive museum in Tibet. Construction began in 1994, it was completed and opened in 1999, and will reopen in 2022 after the new building is expanded.

It is a scenic spot worth seeing. You will definitely not regret going there. There are natural strange forests, snow-capped mountains and white clouds, and plateau wild animals such as blue sheep. It is so beautiful that looking around, it seems as if you have entered a primitive world, shocking and calming.
There are cracks in everything, let alone life
Seeing that you have entered the Mount Everest Conservation Area
I was still excited for a while
The Qilin Gorge on the China-Nepal-India border still has some stories
There are not many tourists. The clouds are thick today, and many snow-capped mountains are not seen. Despite this, the scenery here is worth my hard work [laughing and crying R]
Only drones can capture her shock, but they are not allowed to release them. You need to buy milk tea at the world's highest milk tea shop for them to shoot, so I borrowed the last photo of netizens [shy R] This scene inspired me to learn new skills✌
