Thanks. I guess the problem I met is mainly about I could not figure out how to formally request access, should I request through dbGaP's website or gtexportal main page?
Hi,
How should I download the dbGaP CF Genotype-Tissue Expression Project (GTEx) dataset, it looks a very interesting data sets contains a variety of phenotypes and tissue attributes.
I am looking forward to do research on it, but I could not figure how to download it in the first place. Could someone please help me?

From your link, click the "Study" tab, Jump to "Authorized Access" and follow the "Data access provided by:" link. You will be redirected to the following page, that has all instructions on how and who can apply:
The details for that project are here:

If you want access to controlled-access data (genotypes, reads/bam files), then you will need to formally request access through dbGaP.
