When traveling, devices like phones and tablets are essential for photos, communication, or digital payments.
Running out of battery can be a major hassle, so shared power banks—portable chargers you can rent—are a lifesaver.
You’ll find them in shopping malls, restaurants, cafes, public transportation hubs, and tourist spots.
Steps to Use
- Find a Station: Look for a box-shaped power bank station, often with a display screen.
- Scan the QR Code: Use WeChat or Alipay to scan the code, then follow the prompts to authorize or pay a deposit (e.g., 99 RMB).
- Rent the Power Bank: Once authorized, a power bank will pop out automatically.
- Charge Your Device: Pick the right charging port—most power banks offer three common types.
- Return It: After use, return the power bank to a station of the same brand.
>>Why TPP?
Due to the special plateau environment, the need for the protection of cultural relics, monuments and ecological systems, and the remote location of Tibet, the transportation and tourism reception capacity is limited. Therefore, only those who have a “letter of entry to Tibet”, that is, a “Tibet Travel Permit”, can be allowed to travel to Tibet.
Cost
Rental fees are typically 2-4 RMB per 30 minutes, depending on the city and location.
