Lhasa Weather in March

Lhasa Spring Festival

In March, the weather is warmer than during the previous two months, with an average temperature of 4.6 °C (40.2 °F). The maximum temperature is 12.1 °C (53.8 °F) and the minimum temperature is –3 °C (26.6 °F). March is the first month of spring. Temperatures increase and the relative humidity also increases during the month.

The Exorcism Festival falls on the month on March 11. On this day, there are celebrations in the streets, squares, and monasteries in Lhasa. Although the weather is warmer in March, a few days see low temperatures. It is sunny, dry, and windy, and Lhasa sees few visitors, making March a low travel time and trains and flights are usually available. Hotel rates are also more reasonable. If you are planning to visit Lhasa in March, you can save a lot of money.

Generally, winter clothes are needed at night and a T-shirt, overcoat, and jeans are fine for the daytime. Bring a sunhat, sunglasses, and suntan lotion to avoid damage from the strong ultraviolet lights at this high-altitude area. Also bring lipstick or lip protection, as it is usually windy and dry in Lhasa. See our Lhasa Tours.
