Winter Travel Guide to Lhasa
This is my second time in Tibet, and my first winter trip to Lhasa. Since I brought my child this time, the itinerary is relatively relaxed, and each attraction is carefully visited. Compared to my first time in Tibet, I have gained a lot of feelings and benefits.
On the first day, we flew into Tibet, so we rested after checking into the hotel on the first day. This is very important, especially for those who are visiting Tibet for the first time. You must rest on the first day, and the hotel you choose must have oxygen supply. I bought Gao Yuan An (a health product) at the clinic near the hotel. But personally, I think it's very helpful for altitude sickness.
The second day, visit the Tibet Museum, Norbulingka, and stroll around Barkhor Street. The Tibet Museum must be arranged as the first stop. The museum has a rich collection of cultural relics, which is very helpful for the next visit. The most worth mentioning is that you can see the Potala Palace from the viewing platform on the top floor of the museum. Have a cup of coffee, bask in the sun, and look at the Potala Palace and Sera Monastery in the distance. Time slips away from your fingertips.
The third day, visit the Potala Palace. You must make a reservation for the Potala Palace, otherwise you really can't get in, and you must arrive at the reserved time, you can't be late, otherwise you can't get in. The elderly ticket must be reserved one day in advance on site. However, it can also be reserved on the phone along with the regular adult ticket. From November 1st to March 15th of the following year, the Potala Palace is free of charge. It is recommended to hire a guide when visiting the Potala Palace, and it is best not to join a group. After visiting the Potala Palace, you will redefine the definition of 'glittering'. After coming out of the Potala Palace, you can go to the Time Post Office to mail postcards. Don't underestimate this post office, it is the busiest post office in the country, without one. You will spend a lot of time here. Of course, next to it is Adiao Milk Tea. Drink milk tea and write postcards, the real slow life.
The fourth day, visit Ganden Monastery and Sera Monastery. Because Ganden Monastery is more than 40 kilometers away from Lhasa city, we rented a car to Ganden Monastery. Ganden Monastery is the location of Master Tsongkhapa's stupa and the main court of the Gelug Sect, with an altitude of 4240 meters. The mountain road is very exciting and stimulating. When you arrive at Ganden Monastery, there are very few tourists, and there are monks and residents everywhere. The sky is very close, very blue, and the red and white houses, you really feel 'body in hell, eyes in heaven'. The most famous thing about Sera Monastery is the debate, although I don't understand what the monks are saying, but I can feel their concentration.
The fifth day, visit Jokhang Temple, Ramoche Temple, and Drepung Monastery. The twelve-year-old life-size statue in Jokhang Temple does not allow tourists to worship at close range, only Tibetan compatriots can worship. There are ticket sellers at the entrance of Ramoche Temple, but even if you don't buy it, no one will come to ask, it's all voluntary. After participating, you must line up with Tibetan compatriots to enter, you can watch the eight-year-old life-size statue up close, and you can touch the surrounding cloth with your head. Therefore, I feel that Ramoche Temple is more popular. It is worth mentioning that Drepung Monastery, do not take a taxi to the parking lot, you must go to the ticket office halfway up the mountain. You can visit multiple warehouses in Drepung Monastery, the murals are very exquisite, there are few tourists, you can visit slowly. The most famous of Drepung Monastery is the Buddha Sunning Festival, also known as Shoton Festival.
The sixth day, because my flight is at 5 pm, so the last day I chose to travel in Barkhor Street, take pictures, bask in the sun, drink tea, goodbye, Lhasa!
Very good, I have learned a lot about Tibet's human history. However, it is recommended to add more chairs in each museum, because the time is long and the legs will be very tired. ps. The middle-aged security guard at the gate of the west gate has a bad attitude, which seriously lowers the goodwill of the Tibet Museum.
The Tibet Museum is located in the southeast corner of Lhasa city of Loblinka, the first modern museum in Tibet. In July 1994, it was included in the 30th anniversary of the founding of the Tibet Autonomous Region, one of 62 projects to help Tibet, and opened in October 1999 on the 50th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China and the 40th anniversary of the democratic reform of Tibet. The museum covers an area of 53,959 square meters, the total construction area of 23,508 square meters, and the exhibition hall area of 10,451 square meters. The central axis of the museum area is located in the preamble hall, the main exhibition hall and the cultural relics warehouse in turn. The Tibetan Museum has distinctive characteristics of Tibetan traditional architecture art, and at the same time profoundly reflects the practical characteristics and artistic charm of modern architecture.
Very good-looking, knowledge has risen. As a tourist, you can go and see it, and many locals bring children. Very interesting. The sun on the third floor is particularly comfortable, but there is no place.
Visiting the Tibet Museum requires an appointment a few days in advance. The museum is properly arranged and worth a visit.
Really beautiful, wide view, drunk, beautiful.
Learn about Tibet's past and present lives, the most comprehensive interpretation of Tibet. The picture was taken on the sightseeing platform on the 3rd floor of the museum.
Nothing to come to the museum for a stroll, meet the teacher of Sabin
