Ticket to Lhasa
A journey by rail to the ‘roof of the world’ in Tibet and also visiting Beijing, Xian, Chengdu and Shanghai
The Train
Specially constructed for this extreme route and suitable thus for the more adventurous traveller, this is not a luxury train. Meeting the requirements of safety, reliance, comfort and environmental protection the normal running in a severely cold and oxygen deficient environment is ensured with each of the airproof carriages having a generator for the supply of oxygen.
As accommodation is limited and in high demand the overnight journey to Lhasa will be in 4-berth compartments*, sharing with other Voyages Jules Verne travellers, with a toilet and washroom at the end of each carriage. There are nine small stations on the Golmud-Lhasa section, each with a viewing platform.
