6天拉薩羊卓雍措日喀則私人包團

今天您將探索拉薩輝煌的建築、文化與歷史，隨後與當地人一同漫步於著名的八廓街，體驗藏族日常的轉經生活。

上午，您可以步行前往布達拉宮參觀。它不僅是西藏的地標，也是達賴喇嘛的傳統居所與冬宮（1649-1959年）。從布達拉宮大門攀登365級台階抵達紅宮後，您將來到海拔3.700m、世界上最高的宮殿，在那裡您可以欣賞拉薩市絕佳的全景。當您探索紅宮內歷代達賴喇嘛的主要殿堂、經堂與神龕時，其非凡的繪畫、華麗的珠寶工藝、精湛的雕刻、色彩繽紛的裝飾以及寶藏背後的神秘故事，將令您驚嘆與感動。在布達拉宮內，您會遇見許多從遠方前來此聖地祈禱的藏族朝聖者，這對他們而言是終身的目標。您也可以請導遊講述更多關於西藏第33任贊普松贊干布的故事，他在7世紀為了迎娶唐朝文成公主而首次興建了布達拉宮。

請注意，參觀順序可能會根據您布達拉宮門票上指定的時間進行調整。所有遊客皆須隨團參觀，並在宮內停留1小時。請注意，宮殿內禁止攝影。

探索完布達拉宮博物館後，前往擁有1300年歷史的大昭寺，這裡是西藏的精神中心與世界文化遺產。據說大昭寺是為松贊干布的兩位新娘：唐朝文成公主與尼泊爾尺尊公主所建。「大昭」意為「佛的居所」，寺內供奉著釋迦牟尼12歲等身像，這是佛教界的瑰寶。這就是為什麼佛教朝聖者將其視為最神聖的目的地。當您看著他們日夜在寺前祈禱時，時間彷彿靜止了。

隨後，漫步於大昭寺附近繁忙的八廓街，這裡是古代佛教徒進行轉經的地方。如今，它已成為繁榮的當地市場，您可以在此喝一壺酥油茶，穿上藏服拍照，並挑選一些當地的藏族、尼泊爾與印度手工藝品及紀念品。
