Tashi Delek! Did you ever imagine a high-tech bullet train running through the third pole on Earth? Today, I will share my first experience on the bullet train in Tibet, the high-speed train journey from Lhasa to Nyingchi.
The Lhasa Nyingchi railway is a part of the Sichuan-Tibet railway, and it is the first electrified railway in Tibet. The total length of the Lhasa Nyingch railway is about 450km and it takes only 3 hours. What is it like to run from Lhasa to Nyingchi at an average speed of 160km per hour?
It is awesome! At the same time, it is also steady, quiet, and comfortable. There are three classes of seats available on the train. Come and see my experience in the luxury business class.
Also, I will show you the highlights along the railway Lhasa to Nyingchi, and a homemade lunch in my friend’s house in Nyingchi. Hoping these will give you some new ideas about traveling to Tibet.
