As Tibet is covered by ice and snow throughout the year， most people think that winter is not a good time to visit. However， according to expert travelers， the winter temperature of Lhasa averages about 12℃ and the daytime temperatures of winter in Lhasa can be even higher as a result of too much sunlight.

Mount Namjagbarwa， nicknamed “the father of the glaciers （冰川）”， is in the east of Tibet. The most beautiful scenery of Mount Namjagbarwa can only be seen in autumn and winter. As a result， Tibet winter travel has begun to catch peoples attention.

Beautiful spots for Tibet winter travelers are concentrated around Lhasa and Nyingchi. The first is Mount Namjagbarwa whose relatively low altitude （海拔） and high humidity （湿度） covers the mountain in fog and cloud in spring and summer. As a result， the dry season， from September to the early spring is the best time to appreciate Mount Namjagbarwa. Other sights include the old and new sections of Lhasa， boating in the Crayon Brahmaputra， taking pictures at the place where two rivers are joined together， and sightseeing in Norbu Lingka—a beautiful garden on the suburb of Lhasa.

Altitude in these areas averages around 3，000 meters and can cause slight altitude sickness. Taking some anti-anoxic （抗缺氧） medicines is enough to make you less unpleasant through the first few days after arriving at these high places.

Other things that can ensure travelers have an easy winter holiday in Tibet are sunglasses and sunscreen creams which can help you avoid snow blindness and prevent your skin from being burnt. Last but not least， bring a painkiller such as aspirin， which can help with aches and colds.
