The mountains don't come to me, so I go to them

Sisters preparing to go to Tibet must make a good travel plan before setting off. Tibet is really beautiful, with fewer tourists and many scenic spots open for free, so the cost of visiting Tibet this winter is really low. My gear: suitcase + backpack ID card, student card and other discount documents, as well as a border pass (the tour group will help with this), driving license (needed for self-driving). Warm fuzzy hat, hardshell jacket, down jacket, lightweight sports shoes, sunglasses, disposable bitter apricot kernels, face towels, travel-sized toiletries, emulsion, body lotion, sunscreen. Rhodiola, glucose, cold medicine, power bank, charger, various snacks, and about 200 yuan in small change My friend and I spent about 8 days in Tibet. We spent 6 days with a tour group visiting attractions outside Lhasa. We joined a local Tibetan travel agency's small group tour. It was an all-inclusive package, including accommodation, meals, driver, insurance, attraction tickets, drone aerial photography, oxygen, etc. Overall, it was very good; the driver was easy to talk to, and the others in the group were all around the same age and very friendly. There was a lot of time on the road, but everyone chatted and shared snacks together, and we also discussed photo poses for the next scenic spot. It's very suitable for someone like me. Well, if you're going with a group, you must ask about the other participants, really, being with people of the same age is more enjoyable. Accommodation suggestion: Staying near Barkhor Street is indeed a very convenient choice, it's easy to get anywhere. Also, don't stay in hotels with diffuse oxygen supply; it's not necessary. If you really feel uncomfortable, just stay in one with oxygen supply. If you're on a tight budget, staying in a hostel is also a good choice, but you should look around more. About altitude sickness: Stop aerobic exercise in advance, and don't get too excited when you first arrive in Lhasa, and you should be fine. Glucose, Snickers, and cola can help alleviate symptoms. Oxygen is available for sale in the city, 15-20 yuan is normal. Trains have diffuse oxygen supply available. Other suggestions: It's really comfortable when the sun is out during the day, three layers of clothing are usually enough, but you need to add more in the morning and evening. Also, no matter when you come to Tibet, you must prepare warm clothing. A hat is definitely necessary. The altitude of the Nyingchi line is lower, while the Everest line is higher. If your physical condition allows, you must go to Everest to see the sunrise on the golden mountain.
