A Real Incredible adventure Travel in Lhasa

I don't believe I can see so blue sky before this Tibet Tour. The cloud is so low, the lake water is so mild and wide and the so many prayer flags. Under the set-off of blue sky and snow mountain, the color is so bright that seems as if I could jump into sky. Back from Tibet, I recognize everyone will put forth the awe to nature when facing the lofty snow mountain and the clean lake in quiet harsh a natural environment.
Lhasa
Travel in Lhasa


Lhasa has the violent sunlight you never wish to avoid, big and small temples without end and the Barkhor Street you never want to end it, and of course the Potala Palace you never boring to it. I think the builder of Potala Palace unintentionally designed the mysterious palace worth to look up to, with the asymmetric surface but full of the beauty of rhythm. For a distant view, the red eaves on the top of white wall seem like the piano keyboard playing, etherealize and harmony. The complex of buildings composed by the red, white and golden roof reveals different beauties in day and night. Although it has various valuable treasures and everyone is bright, the most beautiful still is the Potala Palace itself in my opinion.

After the rest in Shigatse, we proceed to the Mount Everest. It was the 5:00pm when we arrived at the supreme headquarter at Mount Everest. From that time, I had clear feeling to the altitude reaction in the height of 5,200 meters, even drug is no help. The Mount Everest hides back of the clouds, even if to the top, still have no chance to enjoy its full view. My friends had no ways to resist to the natural reaction and we decided to go back, but the favorable turn always happens in the time we decided to give up. After driving distance in 15 minutes, the Mount Everest appears to us completely, without any shelter in our back. We stopped there to lidless it for long time. Such stalwart, lofty but lonely! Half an hour later, we say goodbye to it full of grate and esteem. On the way, I turned back to see it heaps of times, it still not be hidden by clouds until it turns dark.

We took the train starts from Lhasa back to Beijing, and by the way of Xining City. The train is new and clean, keeps the fixed temperature and releases oxygen. Later, the train finally enters into the Hoh Xil area, what we can see is just the stark land and spare and low grassland, there is no other plants basically. However, Tibetan antelope and other animals existing in such land, even closer to the rail, still see some Tibetan antelopes leisurely walking around. We can see the Tibetan antelopes in the galloping train, owe to the animal activists. The Hoh Xil is so large that the train starts to throw over the Kunlun Mountains after one hour in it. It is cool!
People always say the Lhasa is the closest place to heaven. Just walking there, you have chance to enjoy it.
