Answer 1

If you are a foreigner, there are some restrictions for you. You should apply for the Tibet Travel Permit so that you can enter Tibet. The weather in October is cool, dry and sunny, so this month is quite suitable for Tibet travel. However, if you want to travel to Tibet in October, try to avoid Oct.1st to 7th. Because it is the Chinese National Day, and many Chinese would rush into Tibet during these seven days.  In October, leaves and grasslands in Tibet turn from green to yellow, just like a fairy tale world. Meanwhile, the temperature difference between day and night is large in October. At daytime, it is around 12℃, and it drops to 2℃ at night. Thus taking some warm clothes is necessary.

Weather in Tibet vary from region to region and some places even experience frost for like 6 month in a year. The fact is that Tibet is a high altitude plateau set among tall mountain ranges, so the mountain ranges catch most of the rains before it's get to the plateau which makes most of Tibet apart from its Southeast either a desert, tundra or a parafrost.
The weather in Tibet is mostly characterised by the following;
Strong sunshine

There's is the cold and the dry periods

There's large difference in terms of day and night temperature in Tibet

Tibet has thin air with less oxgyen content in it. The boiling point in Tibet is actually low.
So if one is thinking of travelling to Tibet as a tourist then between May and October should be ideal.

The weather in Tibet can be quite unpredictable in October. It can range from sunny and mild temperatures during the day to cold temperatures and even snow at night. It is best to be prepared for all types of weather. October is usually the start of the rainy season in Tibet, so you should be prepared for rain. Pack warm clothes and a good raincoat for your tour.

Answer 4

Tibet's weather varies depending on the region, but in general, it has a cool, dry climate with low humidity and strong sunshine. Summers are warm with mild rainfall, while winters are cold and dry with occasional snow. It's best to visit in the warmer months of May to October, although the high altitude can make temperatures feel cooler than they are.

Answer 5

Tibet is a high-altitude plateau with an average elevation of over 4,000 meters, so it tends to have a cool and dry climate with low atmospheric pressure and high UV radiation.

In general, the best time to visit Tibet is during the summer months (June to August) when the temperatures are milder and there is less chance of snow or rain. However, even in the summer, the temperature can drop significantly at night due to the high altitude. In the winter months (December to February), Tibet can be very cold and many areas become inaccessible due to heavy snowfall.

It's always best to check the weather forecast for the specific region you plan to visit in Tibet before your trip and to pack accordingly.
