It is recommended to bring a small oxygen bottle to prevent altitude sickness. If you are tired, you must rest for a while. ▪️You need to enter the temple from the left and exit from the right in a clockwise direction. You will have good luck if you follow this direction. ▪️You can get a bracelet for free in the main hall on the top of the mountain. The master will knock on your head to pray for you. It’s up to you. ▪️Be sure to visit Lhamoyangcuo Lake opposite Songzanlin Temple!
