Tibet is one of the most popular international tourist destinations and attracts over 1000 tourists daily. The golden tourism time of Tibet will last to autumn, when there are grand natural scenery, refreshing pure air, golden barley valley, prosperous farmhouses and fields. Here are some tips on traveling to Tibet in autumn which may help you to plan a wonderful tour to Tibet.   

Some people say they fall in love with Tibet without any reason. Actually, there are too many seasons to list them out. There are star-studded plateau lakes, which are as blue as sky, as quiet as mirror; there are grand snow mountains, and glaciers which will not melt around the year. The clear sky in Tibet is as blue as sapphire, the floating clouds around the snow mountains are as white as Hada. There are desolate and grand natural scenery, refreshing pure air, silent and serene desert, pasture with herds of cattle and sheep on it, the golden barley valley, prosperous primitive forest, rich and simple customs, resplendent and magnificent ancient monastery and so on. All of these make Tibet become the holy place in every Tibet tourist's heart.

From May, Tibet comes into its golden tourism time, and it will last to autumn. However, it becomes colder and colder and tourists are easy to catch a cold and suffer from altitude sickness. Therefore, you need a good preparation and plan. 

 

1. Stop exercising at least 10 days before travelling to Tibet. Many people think that a lot of exercise before touring Tibet will help them to avoid high altitude sickness. This is not exactly true because exercise will consume a great amount of oxygen and impose an additional burden on the heart, which increase possibility to cause altitude sickness. 

 

2. Take some capsule or Compound Oral Liquid of Rhodiola since 10 days before go to Tibet to reduce the impact of altitude sickness.         

 

3. Prevent colds. If you already get a cold, go to Tibet after you completely recover so as to avoid pulmonary edema and encephaledema caused by colds.

4. Take some warm clothes with you. It begins to snow in many places of Tibet from October and it will be very cold, especially at night. 

 

5. Take some medicine for colds, headaches, stomach troubles or other minor ailments. Vitamins are also recommended. 

 

6. To prevent sun-burn and for general comfort, sunglasses, hat, and sun block should be worn for outdoor activities.
