Tibet, this coveted holy land, can be said to be a place that must be experienced once in a lifetime, but few people can muster the courage to go. Then the spring season is about to begin. If you go to Tibet in March Is it suitable? What are the must-visit attractions in Tibet? Let’s take a look below. Is it suitable to go to Tibet in March?
The weather in Lhasa is relatively low in March, but it is still very cold in Tibet, especially for you southerners. Wear warm clothes as much as possible. There is no need to go out of your way to exercise. Note on the way: Eat conservatively and don’t be playful. After all, this is your first time going to the plateau, so it’s better to be conservative. Don't let yourself get too tired, especially don't catch a cold or inflame your nose. This can easily lower your immunity and cause altitude sickness. But don’t worry too much. From a certain point of view, it is quite appropriate to go to Tibet in March. There are too many people going there in the summer, which actually increases the price of the hotel. When you arrive in Tibet, you can drink butter tea. There is a kind of food that is similar to steamed buns and made of wheat. I forgot what it is called. In addition, there are many restaurants run by Sichuan people everywhere, so you don’t have to worry at all. Tibetans generally do not eat dog meat or fish. When walking in and around temples, they should walk from the right, that is, counterclockwise. Nowadays, Tibet is quite open. As long as you don’t go to some remote places, it is generally quite safe and quite enjoyable. Recommended tourist attractions in Tibet
