What documents do I need to bring to travel in Tibet?
1. ID card or Hong Kong and Macao pass
Hong Kong and Macao tourists can travel to Tibet on their own with the passport of the special zone of China and the 'pass for Hong Kong and Macao residents to and from the mainland'. The pass for Hong Kong and Macao needs to be handled at the place where they have their registered permanent residence.
2. Driver's license and driving license
When you go to Tibet for a self driving tour, there are many checkpoints when you enter Tibet. In addition to checking your ID card, you also need to check your driver's license and driving license, which can only be released when they are complete. Otherwise, it will be very troublesome. In addition, you need to register your ID card, driver's license and driving license at the gas station on the road. You can only refuel after entering the information. It can be seen that in addition to ID card, driving license and driving license are also very important in Tibet.
3. Tibet border pass
Tibet border pass domestic guests (including those with mainland ID card and Hong Kong and Macao ID card) need to apply for border pass at Dingri (Everest), Zhangmu, Yadong, Chayu, moto, Ali and other border areas.

What should I pay attention to when I go to Tibet for the first time?
Travel is always a very happy thing. If you plan to travel to Tibet, you will get a lot of points. But if you encounter some problems or regrets because of your carelessness or planning, you will lose more than you gain. What problems did you encounter during your trip to Tibet? I believe you can avoid these problems next time!
First: luggage
Tibet travel is a long-distance travel, all the way is stop and go. And some friends, because they are always afraid that they have not brought such things to Tibet for the first time and forget them again, so they finally take large bags and small bags of luggage on the road. Only on the way to find that many things are actually useless, and will spend a lot of effort to their tired, next time to the friends must pay attention to this point.
Second: certificate!
This is a taboo for Tibet. Because Tibet is different from other places, there are many military stations in Tibet. If you are going to play in Tibet safely, you must take a lot of documents, such as ID card, driver's seat, student's card, etc. It's not unreasonable for a tour guide to ask you to bring several copies of the original documents when you are in Tibet.
Third: sun protection
Girls are most afraid of being sunburned. Several online posts have said that the comparison between these girls before and after they went to Tibet is really very exaggerated. It's not unreasonable to say that Lhasa is a sunshine city. Ultraviolet light will make your skin red, peeling or even peeling. Both men and women should be prepared for sunscreen here! A perfect trip can't be ignored in many small things, but if you really find yourself some trouble because of these things or hope you can face it positively and optimistically, even if you have certain regrets, don't affect your good mood, I hope Hope everyone can have a good trip!

IV. questions and answers
1. No exercise is required before entering Tibet. Many people are afraid of altitude reaction and think that they should strengthen themselves before going to Tibet. In fact, there is not much to do with being strong. Ordinary people don't need to exercise deliberately. If you are not sure, you can jog a month in advance, but don't exercise a week before you start.
2. The altitude response was also mild and severe. When entering Tibet for the first time, some people will suffer from headache, tinnitus, shortness of breath, general weakness, insomnia and other symptoms. Even worse, they will feel nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, panic and purple face. Generally, the slight high reaction will get used to 1-2 days after the first arrival in Tibet. Severe high altitude reactions include brain edema and pulmonary edema. It is necessary to immediately send the patient to the nearest hospital, otherwise it may lead to shock, and serious patients may be threatened with death.
3. Altitude response has nothing to do with flying into Tibet. Take the train to Tibet, let your body slowly adapt to the gradually rising altitude. However, it takes more than 40 hours to get to Tibet by train in many cities. It's really hard for people. Many tourists start to turn high in Tanggula Mountain pass because of their long journey. At this time, they can choose to take the train in two sections, stay in Xining or Xi'an for one or two days, and then buy the train ticket to Tibet in Xining (friendly tip: there are too many yellow cattle in Xining, Train tickets are too high. If time is short and economy is abundant, it's worth recommending that you choose to go to Tibet by plane. The online saying that "when you go to Tibet by plane, you will have plateau reaction" is not correct. Plateau reaction is not caused by flying. Some people travel slowly to Tibet by themselves or have high reaction. It's worth mentioning that no matter you are in Tibet by plane or by train, don't wash your hair and take a bath on the day when you arrive at Lhasa. You need to rest more. You really have a habit of cleanliness. When you wash your hair, you must remember to dry it.
4. Heart disease, asthma and hypertension are not suitable for Tibet. Generally speaking, most people can travel to Tibet unless they suffer from serious diseases. The following six conditions are not suitable for people to come: A, with a variety of heart disease, blood disease, cerebrovascular disease B, with chronic respiratory disease. C. epilepsy, schizophrenia or uncontrolled diabetes. D. severe cold, fever or respiratory infection. E. have suffered from high altitude pulmonary edema, high altitude brain edema, high altitude hypertension, high altitude heart disease and high altitude erythrocytosis.

5. People with severe cold should not enter Tibet. In the case of a cold, there is often inflammation in the trachea and lungs, weak resistance of the human body, and low oxygen content in the plateau. A cold can easily deteriorate into bronchitis, pulmonary edema or pneumonia, which is not worth the loss. In addition, it will take a long time to recover from a cold in a plateau area.
6. Just arrived in Tibet, have less activities and drink more water. Don't take a bath; eat light food and drink more water (not drinks); don't rush to play around, first go to the city, let the body slowly adapt to the plateau, and then go to places with higher altitudes to play; more rest.
7. Single women are not recommended to take a ride to Sichuan Tibet. The Sichuan Tibet line has a South line and a North line, with a total length of 2140 kilometers and a total length of 2412 kilometers. Generally, people take the south line on foot or by car, which takes about a week. At present, it is not recommended for single young women to hike on the Sichuan Tibet line, especially for "poor travel" in Tibet. The second is to lose their lives, and the risk factor should be considered by themselves.
8. Find someone to carpool without making a bargain. Many backpackers don't like to join a group in a travel agency. They prefer to find a few like-minded car charterers, which is more free. Generally, there are three ways to find someone to carpool. One is to contact a professional travel car rental company and ask it to send it on its behalf
