The Scenery of Lhasa (1)
The scenery along the way from the airport made me feel that Tibet is really beautiful. Natural rivers and mountains make this plateau province more full of natural beauty. If it is further developed, it will be a good area with vast territory and abundant resources.
Along the way already two or three-meters-high trees seem to be very little pollution, the air is so fresh, and trees and crops are so lush. In the city, the appearance is still the same, Bajiao Street is still busy, hawker business is booming, and it is said that many mainlanders come here to do business. On the street, Tibetans' traditional clothes are colorful in the bright sunshine. Lamas walk in the street, like some wise saints, respected by people.
Car into the Xizang hostel, the condition has been good.
As I walked along, I remembered that this was the highest plateau in the world and a time to test my strength. I calmed down and moved as slowly as possible. Because on this thin, oxygen-deprived plateau, any big movement takes a lot of energy. Therefore, upon arriving at the guest house, Captain Yan and Mr. Wang advised me to take more rest to adapt to the plateau climate. My room is a large one. It's not expensive. A double room costs 20 yuan a day.
I slowly unpacked, putting away one bag of film, one bag of clothes, and one bag of groceries. I fell asleep, covered with a down sleeping bag, and slept for two hours.
Captain Yan and others sent watermelons and a new product, called Baobao Gai Bowl tea, which is a drink of the Hui nationality. It contains tea leaves, wolfberries, raisins, dates, sesame seeds, and sugar. The taste is very good.
