I am in Lhasa finally! After 8 days driving from Chengdu to Lhasa, we finally arrive Lhasa. I like Lhasa a lot, even it's a big city, but I feel very relax and there a lot places to hang out.

100208 Lhasa, Tibet. "...I'm a rat, i'm a rat, i'm a rat, i'm a rat..." Losarit on juhlittu ja rotanvuosi vaihtunut(myos jonkin sortin kissanristiaisia eilen vietettiin).. Jumalten maaperalla on kaupunki venynyt ja paukkunut siihen malliin etta on aika pikkuhiljaa vaihtaa maisemaa.. Vuoristotauti ei kehenkaan ole iskenyt eika kukaan ainakaan ole tunnustanut giardiaa(eihan sita koskaan tieda..). Happivaje sen sijaan on matkalaisia vaivannut(Ilmakehan happiprosentti vain 68%) ja hengitysvaikeuk...

On the way to Lhasa, the bus route followed azure rivers and green grassy mountains along valleys with yellow rape flowers. A starry-eyed couple sat by the river Fishing Their hooks on dry land. A naked boy watched the bus come towards him. He proudly waved his little pecker in the air with his thumb and forefinger to the laughter of our bus. We drove a road lined with poplars and I knew Lhasa was near; someone had told me that the gateway roads to Lhasa are lined with poplars. Prayer flags ...

The first day I woke up with a splitting headache, and I was so parched that I had trouble swallowing. The altitude was getting to me. I had to rest after going up only 1 flight of stairs. To make matters worse, I was getting a cold. Luckily the headache went away after the second day, and I didn't feel as tired when walking around Lhasa. Off-season is great in Lhasa. Everything is cheaper, and barely any tourists around. We stayed at Banakshol Hotel for 100 RMB a night. I liked the room ther...

... enough that the Palace is<br>high up, but add the cold air and the fact that we have colds made<br>the burning in our lungs somewhere between really intense and<br>excruciating. But we did it and when we got there we rested and<br>watched Tibetan pilgrims walk in – it did our egos good to see that<br>they were huffing and puffing too. Traditionally, the Potala is the<br>home of the Dalai Lama and the seat of the Tibetan government but<br>since the current D.L ...

... blue - sky, white - clouds, yellow - earth, red - fire, and green - river. Pasang told us that the scarves are tied or released here during the Tibetan New Year. There are white ladders painted on some rocks, they are for assisting the spirit or mind to climb to heaven when the body is dead. There were 3 other Buddhas painted there too. The middle one is the Buddha of long life. I dozed off for another few minutes in the van and was having some dreams when we ...

... 5th day is holy) when monasteries will be packed with pilgrims. Pilgrimmage forms part of Tibetan life. Every Tibetan will have undertaken several pilgrimmages, be it to a nearby monastery or to a far away holy site, e.g. one of the 4 Tibetan holy lakes or one of the 4 holy mountains. They will then swarm through the temples or walk around the site on a so-called "kora". The holiest mountain in Tibet is Mt Kailash in the west. This can be rounded in 3 days by foot ...

... took him away. Must have had a talk with the son because when they came back the son did the same again only louder. They eventually packed up as their stop was coming. The Mom gave the son a sweet cake and he stuffed his mouth with it and then tried to spit it out on Len. I felt sorry for the child and the parents must have been thoroughly embarrased with their son's behaviour. The father did tell the child to say ...

... you.' According to Bernbaum, Rinpungpa warned of everything from starvation to forests of knives to rivers so cold they killed at first touch. Adding in the Panchen Lama's instructions, and those from the Mahabharata, it pretty much boiled down to the same thing. From the lowland Indian river valley where the Lord Buddha lived, crossing Tibet westward, via the sacred mountain of Kailas, then north, over an 'outer ring' of sky-high ice mountains, down through a vicious desert, into unknown ...

July-13 In 2008,It is required by Tibet Travel Bureau that the travel agency need to arrange two guides in one tour group over 10 travellers. In my opinion it is a very stupid idea. more click: http://www.tibettravel.org
