Due to the high altitude, Tibet is known as a snow-covered land with low temperature and scarce oxygen. Thus a winter tour in Tibet is not within consideration of most tourists. However, we suggest our readers visit Tibet in winter between November and March next year for the following reasons:
1. Warmer weather
In fact, winter in Tibet is not as cold as most people think. Having an annual average daily temperature of 8 degree Centigrade, Lhasa is free from both freezing winter and unbearable hot summer.
2. Less rainy days
In winter, there are usually fewer rainy days, but more sunny ones. It is always difficult to travel to the faraway Bome in summer because there are often mudslides due to the rainy season.
3. Fewer tourists
The tourist high tide in Tibet often falls in between May and September. In winter, the celebrated tourist attractions such as the Potala Palace and Jokhang Temple are not that crowded.
4. Lower price
In order to encourage more tourists travel to Tibet in winter, the Tibetan local government and tourism department will carry out a special tourism promotion in winter.
