First Time in Tibet: Summer vs. Winter?

🌞
Summer Tibet:
– Higher oxygen content, relatively humid air. Better for nose, lips, and skin, especially for women.
– Cool and pleasant weather, ideal for escaping the summer heat.
– Lhasa and Shigatse turn green with expansive highland meadows, blue skies, snow-capped mountains, lakes, and temples.
– Nyingchi’s beauty, especially Jieba Village near Basum Lake, is like a painting in summer and autumn.
– Peak tourist season with 5A scenic spot tickets typically around 180-200 RMB.
– No free admission for scenic spots in summer, and Potala Palace tickets require reservations about 10 days in advance.
🏔️Winter Tibet:
– Fewer tourists, more immersive local experience.
– Bright and warm sunlight at noon.
– Government subsidies provide free entry to major attractions like the Potala Palace, Norbulingka, Mount Everest, Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon, Basum Lake, Karola Glacier, Yamdrok Lake, and Namtso Lake.
– Drier climate, higher likelihood of altitude sickness.
– During Spring Festival or Tibetan New Year, many shops may close, making taxis harder to find, but daily tourism, food, and accommodation are not significantly affected.
In Summary:
If it’s your first time visiting Tibet, it’s recommended to visit in summer, taking the train in and flying out. If you’re visiting Tibet again, you can fully enjoy the slow pace of winter, flying in and out, and enjoy the best value by drinking sweet tea and basking in the sun.
