Lhasa, the capital city of Tibet, is an unmissable destination that will leave you spellbound with its unique blend of spirituality and natural beauty. The standout attraction is the majestic Potala Palace, the former residence of the Dalai Lama, which dominates the city's skyline and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Travellers love the vibrant Barkhor Street, a bustling marketplace where they can experience the local culture and buy traditional handicrafts. The best time to visit Lhasa is during the spring (May to June) and autumn (September to October) when the weather is mild and clear, making it ideal for sightseeing. For first-timers, it's essential to acclimatize to the high altitude of Lhasa by taking it easy for the first few days and drinking plenty of water to avoid altitude sickness.
