Tibet is one of the harshest places for human existence. The weather there is cool in summer, but excruciatingly cold in winter. In Lhasa, the relatively humane city of the region. The sunlight in Lhasa is so intense that the city is called Sunlight City. The thin air can neither radiate nor absorb heat, resulting in temperature extremes during both day and night. However, it is not impossible to visit the holy snowland. The period from April to October is the best time to visit Tibet, avoiding the coldest months from December to February.

In northern Tibet, the climate is not favorable with the average temperature being sub-zero, and winter lasts from October through May or June. July and August are the best time to visit the area, enjoying warm temperatures, intense sunshine, beautiful scenery, and festive events. In eastern Tibet, May, June, and September are the height of the tourism season.

Although southern Tibet is balmy from May through October, most rainfall also comes during this season between June and September. Heavy rains during the night block roads and make travel difficult. However, during this season, the scenery is at its best and there are also great festive events held. Hence, it is the preferred time to visit Lhasa, Shigatse, and Nyingchi. From November through May, strong winds are common occurrences.
