Just look at me for Tibet guide (collection)

Day 1: Potala Palace-Jokhang Temple 📍Potala Palace: It’s beautiful to take pictures during the day and at night. There are many mirrors on the ground of the square to help us take pictures and check in. The most popular attraction is gold, but you need to make a reservation one day in advance. 📍Jokhang Temple: You need to go during the day, as all Balang Street is closed at night. You can see many Tibetan people worshiping. Do not secretly take photos of them and Tibetan locals. If you are discovered, you will be asked to delete it. Group tour: spent 1,700 yuan for a 5-day tour😭 The first day of group registration: Yanghu Lake--Carola Glacier 📍Yanghu Lake: Also called Yangzhuoyongcuo, it feels like a river surrounding mountains and rivers. There will be many birds such as gulls and herons. The lake surface is relatively calm. Skirts and casual clothes are suitable for taking pictures. 📍Carola Glacier: You can see the melting glaciers forming rivers. You can walk on the plank road or not. If you take the plank road, it is recommended to bring a bottle of oxygen. I usually exercise a lot, and I got a headache when walking on the plank road. Breathing difficulty. The second day of group registration: Qilin Gorge-Everest Base Camp 📍Qilin Gorge: Due to the melting of glaciers and countless years of weathering, the scene of towering rocks in a crack of more than 200 meters has been formed. The ticket office is far away from the attraction. It takes about half an hour to sit and wait for the sightseeing bus, so be sure to plan your time. The person in charge of the scenic spot will introduce the scenic spot and some stories, and then you will be asked to buy a blessing plaque, which is 60 yuan each. You can buy it or not. Anyway, I didn't buy it. There is a free VR experience in the coffee shop. If you buy a cup of coffee, you can take drone aerial photography for free. However, since the tour group included this, I didn’t buy any coffee. 📍Everest Base Camp: Be sure to bring a down jacket or thick clothes. It will be very cold when watching the sunrise, sunset and starry sky. It costs 50 yuan to rent a coat, half price for students. Remember to bring an oxygen bottle. The altitude above is more than 5km and it is easy to get altitude sickness. At sunset and sunrise, you can see the scenery of Rizhao Jinshan Mountain. The starry sky is like a galaxy, which is very beautiful. It’s best to live up there, as you can’t see the stars or the sunrise from below, but you’ll have to pay an extra NT$60 or NT$90. Regarding tickets, if you are under the half-price discount policy, you must buy a half-price ticket, so that the driver and tour guide will refund you the price difference. I got a refund of 60 yuan using my student ID card. The third day of group registration: Everest Base Camp From Everest Base Camp to the place where Ri Keze lives, we basically took a car this day. The fourth day of group registration: Serincuo 📍Selinco: It is very large, like a sea. It is an undeveloped scenic spot, so there are very few people. The scenery is very similar to Namtso. Day 5 of the tour: Namtso - back to Lhasa 📍Namtso: I heard that Nyenchen Tanglha Mountain and Namtso have a story similar to that of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. There are horseback riding, riding a buffalo into the water, and taking photos with a lamb. Be sure to bargain! ! ! I cut down the price of taking a photo with a lamb from 25 yuan to 5 yuan! ! ! You can bring some bread and biscuits to feed the seagulls and take photos. There are a lot of seagulls. Be careful when the lamb eats hair
