1. The newly opened Qinghai-Tibet Railway is really great. You can see the unique landscape in western China bit by bit on the train. Through the train windows, you may find see Tibetan antelopes and gazelles running on the wild grasslands. Also you can see the snow montains and beautiful lakes. If you have plenty of time and aren't afraid of taking long-distance trains, traveling by train is a good choice.
2. The temperature difference in Lhasa is distinct at daytime and nighttime. Take more clothes with you, like a sweater and a thick coat. It is a very dangerous thing if you catch cold on this high plateau.
3. The sunlight in Lhasa is very strong on a sunny day. It might sting your tender eyes. So sunscreen and sunglasses are also a must.
4. Lhasa is a pretty modern city. You can buy what you want there. So if you forget anything, don't worry.
5. Without a doubt, the Potala Palace and the Jokhang Monastery are the two most famous holy places in Lhasa. Barkhor Street near Jokhang Monastery is famous for Tibetan arts and crafts, clothes and accessories sold along the street. Like many other scenic spots in China, you have to bargain with the vendors.
6. There are two restaurants which are worthy being recommended. One is Snowland Restaurant and another is Makye Ame Restaurant.
