1Spot 1 - 27 approach
This spot is very nice for reading the serials and photography. The spot is near the Yarlung Tsampo river and the Himalayan mountains on the background. An awesome scenery for perfect shots! Assuming your starting point is the airport terminal building you have to walk for a while. Please bear in mind that the airport is located at nearly 12.000 ft so walking takes some time. Start walking towards the East (to other way you came from, when coming from Lhasa). Just follow the paved road and you will end up walking parallel to the runway. Keep walking for a while after the runway has ended. At a given moment and at your own convenience you can turn left towards the Tsampo river. Find a spot under some trees.
2Spot 2 - Terminal building
The other spot is located inside the terminal building. When entering you can walk towards the glass wall on the platform side. From there you have a good view of the platform and all active aircraft (including the military ones) taxi in front of this building and are read without a hitch. Photo opportunities are limited to an area near gates 4 and 5.
