Folks, has anyone been to Lhasa, Tibet; and China?
I am touring China and Tibet this May, 2009 and would like some advise on China and the altitude of Tibet. Going to Beijing, Xian, Lhasa, Yangtze cruise, Shanghai, back to Beijing, and US. What can anyone tell me about these places especially of the altitude in Lhasa? Any and all info is appreciated.
Yes, altitude of Lhasa, Tibet. Not attitude!! How bearable is it? What did you do to tolerate it? I’ll be there for 3days/3nights.

Wow you’re going to China? Lucky. Well, one of the places you’re visiting was my birth place (Xi’an). I don’t know much about the "altitude" ( i have no idea what you mean), do you mean "attitude". In Xi’an, you can see a lot of ancient and exotic things like the "Bing ma yong". The weather there, from what i can remember, is ok, but not that great. It’s usually gray, but occasionally it’s clear blue. Since you’re going in May, i suggest you to bring some summer clothes. It’s pretty hot there. Have fun! If you have any other questions, feel free to email me and i’ll help you the best i can.

I just know from others that I know who’ve been there (China, for sure) that you really want to keep your opinions to yourself and encourage others with you to do the same. They do throw people in jail and ask them to leave if they get uppity.

do you mean "would like some advice"?
if it’s a tour arranged by the company — you will be fine…
if you travel by yourself — made sure you have enough money…
scenic spots in Tibet aren’t cheap…
