Potala Palace: Surviving 1,000 Steps & Altitude at Lhasa's Peak
★4.9(1351)
Acclimatize for two days or the stair climb will wreck your lungs. You get exactly one hour inside, so don't waste time fumbling with your camera—photography is strictly banned anyway. Focus on the ornate gold stupas and detailed thangka paintings while you can. Skip the solo planning and book a 4-day Lhasa City tour to handle the mandatory permits and security lines. Drink way more water than you think you need. Pace yourself.
