The 12 days wonderful snowy plateau tour in Tibet

Life is vast; there are so many things which confuse us. Tibet, just as a child—simple, plain, pure and having no guard against. The first trip to Tibet, some preparations are necessary. I will share with you my experience and strategy of travelling to Tibet.
1. Travel to Tibet in summer, you would better take the measures to protect yourself.
2. You can wear the cloth what you like, and if you want to climb the mountain, charge clothing is a good choice.
3. Drink more water when you are on the plateau, also have enough sleep.
4. The coin is not necessary; you can take same small stationeries to Tibetan children.

Well, let us begin the wonderful travel to Tibet by train.

Loess plateau is turbid, so is the river!
It's going to be a beautiful day, through Hoh Xil, mount over Tunggula Mountain. And take out your camera; wait for the nice sight outside of the window. The following picture is taken on the Qinghai-Tibet railway. Although the time in the train is so long, but thanks god, the view is pretty magnificent.

It was 8 o 'clock in the evening when we reached Lhasa, but the sun has not setting yet. Take the bus, and accept the hada, I look forward to the journey of tomorrow.
For my first day in Tibet, let me find some of the lost purity. Maybe they are not similar to the people who live in the modernization city, but there are full of the happy in their heart.

The Polata palace

 The
Barkhor Street

On July 26, 2011, the trip of this day is to Namtso Lake, and it means "heavenly lake" in the Tibetan language, also it is the highest great lake in the world. Nearly step by step. The sky is abstruse and blue, well; it is integrated mass with the pure water.
To be honest, the water is so cold. Oh, the cute animal is white yak. You can spend 5 yuan to ride it. Surely you can spend 10 yuan to ride down the lake.
 
Sitting in the return car, my mind is still full of the piece of beauty about Namtso Lake. The grass is like a huge green blanket, it is boundless. Under the sunshine, the main peak Nyenchen Tanglha becomes clearer, like a mighty warrior guarding the Namtso. Indeed, as if whole soul is washed by the pure water.
On July 27, 2011, the trip of the day is to Nyingchi, the Yarlung Zangbo river pass from here.




   
The fairyland in the world, the distant mountain is tall and straight, having a lot of jagged rocks. Many rare plants and the preserved original forest, it become a "natural museum of natural history".

 
Mani pile
The visitors like to make the memorial stone pile, called Mani pile, maybe they also stands there when you come next time.

The night of the Yanghe, river also quiet down.

On July 29th, 2011. Also get up early, and our destination is Xigaze, all of this route will be very long, but it must not be boring. Climb over the Gambara mountains, we come to the Yamdrok Lake. The Yamdrok Lake in Tibetan means "swan lake", it is like a beauty lying in the arms of the Himalayan peaks.


 The Yamdrok Lake

Compare with the wide and magnificent Namsto Lake, what the Yamdrok Lake gives me the feeling is meticulous, beautiful, and kind. Just like the legend about her, she is the dragon female incarnation.



The penetrating Karula glacier.
The more is near, we increasingly feel small.
August 1, 2011, after saw the great Potala Palace also visited the mysterious and simple Jokhang, how would the Tashilhunpo monastery be like as main temple? Take with curiosity, I start today's journey.



     The architecture style of the Tashilhunpo monastery is similar with the Jokhang temple. However, it is much more majestic than Jokhang temple, the red building of the golden roof make you feel admiring.
The last day scheduling is relaxing and rich.
If you do not try some buttered tea and drink much barley wine, how can you know more about Tibet and Tibetan people?
It will protect you when you are cold; and filter the oily when you eat the meat; the hungry time can cure hunger; also in the Sleepy time, it can refresh oneself; it will refresh oneself in the doze time.


The last day, I also feel sorrow, I want to stay there for more long time, I want to have rest in Lhasa, and have a look in the night sight about the Potala Palace.

The 12 days journey written in water, although I have plateau reaction, the camera fall into water, but there is more good memory in my mind when I will leave. There is some or more mood about the Tibet.
When it is close to noon, we take the taxi to the Lhasa railway station. Go all the way along the familiar and unfamiliar Lhasa River; watch the distant Potala Palace; recall the scene when I just arrive at Lhasa…12 days, really short!




What is about Tibet, there are so many worth things what are really too many to write. I even think, the language and the words cannot express Tibet. That kind of place, only to experience, to taste, to go with the mind, can you close to the heart of Tibet.

Goodbye, Lhasa!
Goodbye, beautiful roof - Tibet!
Goodbye, my wonderful and unforgettable Tibet tour on the snowy plateau!
