How much do you know about winter travel in Tibet? Come and have a look before you set off

Although many people have a dream of Tibet, plateau travel is not as easy as other trips. On the one hand, it is easy to get altitude sickness. On the other hand, the distance between scenic spots in Tibet is very far, and the driving time will be very long. If you want to travel more comfortably, it is essential to do some preparation before traveling. Various documents are required before departure: Border pass, ID card, bank card, cash Tips: How to apply for a border pass: Have a travel agency apply for it or apply in advance at your place of residence (usually valid for three months) Electronic equipment: Mobile phones, chargers, power banks, camera and machine auxiliary equipment (especially memory cards) Snacks: Carry some snacks that are easy to carry to relieve driving fatigue. Mineral water is essential. Various medicines: ·Cold medicine, headache medicine, Zhenglu pills, etc. Precautions First of all, I would like to remind you that security checks in Tibet are very strict. You must always carry your ID card with you. Whether you are traveling in the city or traveling from Lhasa to other areas, you will often encounter security checks and your ID card will be checked. In winter, the oxygen content is relatively thin, and altitude sickness is more likely to occur. Take Rhodiola rosea a week before departure. 2 If you take a direct flight to Lhasa, it is recommended not to wander around on the first day because of excitement. Getting a good rest is the most important thing. 3 It is recommended not to take a bath on the first day. You should also avoid taking a bath for a long time and using overheated water to bathe, which can easily cause hypoxia. About altitude sickness When you first arrive at the plateau, you may experience headaches, chest tightness, shortness of breath, etc., which are all normal altitude sickness. Don't be too nervous. If the reaction is relatively low, you can take a rest, drink more water, and exercise less. Generally, it will disappear or weaken after a period of time. If the reaction exceeds your tolerance, you must choose oxygen and seek medical attention if necessary.

The weather is mostly sunny, and there is sunbathing almost every day. The visibility is higher, and you can see the golden mountain in the sun, the snow-capped mountains that are exclusive to winter, and the holy lake with floating broken ice and falling snowflakes. It is not recommended to drive by yourself. The gradual increase in altitude is a challenge to your physical fitness. If you drive again, it will be really uncomfortable. You can follow an experienced driver and easily solve problems when you encounter them. Tibet Travel
