When is the best time to visit Tibet?

The weather in Tibet can be quite challenging due to its high elevation, but it's not as harsh as some people imagine. The sun radiation is strong, and the air is thin, which can cause temperature extremes during the day and night. But anyway Tibet can be visited all year around!

The best time to visit Tibet is from April to November.

The best months to travel to Tibet are May, June, September, and October. During these months, the weather is warm and sunny with clear blue skies. Also, they are less crowded compared to the busy months of July and August.

July and August have the warmest weather, the highest oxygen concentration, and the most beautiful natural scenery, which is why they are the busiest months. It is also the summer holiday in China. However, these months are the monsoon season with the most rainfall, which can sometimes block roads, especially in remote areas. Nonetheless, the scenery during this time can be stunning.
During the winter months from November to February, Tibet can get extremely cold, with temperatures dropping to well below freezing. While some attractions in Far West may not be accessible, Lhasa and central Tibet offer a unique cultural experience, with nomad families shopping and worshiping at monasteries. Additionally, the cost of Tibet tours is significantly lower during the winter months due to fewer tourists. You can find more information on Best Tibet to Visit Tibet.
