Today, the last day of 2021, let's welcome the New Year together in Lhasa! (Author/Qiao Feng)
On the evening of December 30, 2021, I booked a ticket from Chongqing to Lhasa on the 31st.

The air tickets to Tibet in winter are very cheap, coupled with the preferential policies of "winter tour to Tibet" in recent years, going to Lhasa, Tibet for new year's Eve, the cost I think is similar to the cost of going out to eat a meal at the end of the year, the only difference is that you don't have to face crowds.
Fortunately, during the day on December 30th, I just did nucleic acid for work reasons, and I can receive the accounting report before boarding on the 31st.
So, everything is providential.

Regarding Lhasa, I like to start from winter, from the sunshine of Lhasa, just like the winter day when I first entered Tibet. In the impression of many people and friends in my hometown, Lhasa in winter is cold, there is no scenery, and it is a depression.
Actually, it really isn't.

Lhasa in winter is empty, compared with the peak season, there are few tourists, but many friends who love Tibet will say that this is the real Lhasa, exuding a quiet and peaceful light.

With more than a dozen hours of abundant sunshine, the average daytime temperature in Lhasa in winter is 16 degrees Celsius, which is warmer than most places in the interior.
Flocks of black-necked cranes and red-hemp ducks come here for the winter, flying from one side of the river to the other side from time to time, emitting a hissing sound, far and long;

People in the sun walk slowly through every corner of the city.
After retreating from the bustling crowds, Lhasa in winter has returned to its original appearance, full of leisure, and people enjoy the warm winter sun.

Before coming to Lhasa, I used to go to a teahouse on Barkhor Street.

Unlike other cities, time seems to mean nothing to Lhasa, where three pounds of butter tea, a pot of coffee or half a dozen Lhasa beers are spent in a teahouse.

Most of the teahouses in Lhasa's old town are located on the street, densely arranged with wooden Tibetan tables and chairs.

Lhasa people like to drink tea, Lhasa's tea house may be more inclusive than the United Nations General Assembly, regardless of rich or poor, ethnicity, gender, creed, skin color, always can find a place at the narrow tea table, play with the small teacup in the hand, talk about the opposite topic.

Herders dressed in Tibetan costumes, tourists from all over the world, three or two table, drink tea, eat noodles, roll dice.
If you see that your teacup is empty, the next table will take the initiative to fill it for you and invite you to drink tea.

Eat a bowl of Tibetan noodles, drink a pot of sweet tea, and then go to the Potala Palace Square, the night is coming.
I had just entered the Potala Palace Square, and the night lights of the Potala Palace were just turned on.

The Potala Palace under the lights is still so magnificent, and the number of tourists who come to the square to take photos is gradually increasing.

Lhasa City does not have the habit of counting down fireworks to celebrate New Year's Day, people are slowly walking down the street, except for the sign of the New Year's Day discount in some modern shops, I don't feel that 2021 is about to turn the page.

Tips: Chongqing-Lhasa flights cost between 400 and 700 in winter, which takes about 3 hours.
Temperature: Lhasa's winter temperature difference is large, the temperature difference between morning and evening is low, the night temperature remains below zero, to do a good job of warm measures, down jackets, cotton hats, warm shoes and socks, warm underwear is essential. The bright midday sun brings warmth and comfort, but also brings ultraviolet rays, so sunglasses and bandanas, sunscreen, lipstick and other sun protection measures are essential.
