A free guide to Lhasa in winter, all attractions are free

Lhasa, the holy land for backpackers, the most suitable city for solo travel in the country. 🧚🏻In winter, all A-level tourist attractions in Lhasa except temples are free, and the travel price is very low, half cheaper than summer tourism. Free attractions include the Potala Palace, Norbulingka, Yamdrok Lake, etc. ⛰️The main city tour of Lhasa is to visit temples and tour the Potala Palace. Book free tickets in advance through the Potala Palace ticket reservation system one day in advance. There is basically no need to queue in the off-season, but it is very tiring to climb the Potala Palace. Those with poor physical fitness should prepare oxygen tanks in advance. Note that photography is not allowed inside. 💞The winter climate in Lhasa is cold, and you need to prepare thick down jackets and thermal underwear. If you are traveling alone, you should prepare all kinds of medicines, especially for colds, fever, diarrhea, etc. Oxygen tanks are life-saving. 🚂The starting price for taxis in Lhasa is 10 yuan, and 12 yuan at night. They don't like to use the meter, so you need to agree on the price in advance. City buses can also reach major attractions. You can take a bus to tour Lhasa alone, and you can reach Barkhor Street, Jokhang Temple, Potala Palace, Yaowang Mountain, Sera Monastery, Norbulingka, Zaki Temple, etc. along the way. 🍩It is suitable for individuals to eat Tibetan noodles and drink sweet tea, the most cost-effective food and drink in Lhasa, with an average cost of 10 yuan. 🧘🏻‍♀️Winter is the cheapest season for accommodation in Lhasa. You can stay in a youth hostel or a guest house. Around 50 yuan.
