The longest train in China takes six days and six nights, which is very suitable for traveling.

Among all public transport, the train has the highest cost performance. The coverage of China railway network is very extensive, and most places can be reached by train, so the train has gradually become the first choice for everyone to travel.

In recent years, tourist trains seem very popular. In addition to meeting the basic daily needs, major railways have successively launched tourist trains suitable for travel, making traveling by train a new mode of travel. For example, there are at least 30 tourist routes for you to choose from, such as Damei Xinjiang Tourist Special Line, Hainan Island Tourist Special Line and Panda Special Line.

But if you want to say which travel train has the best experience, it is the K3 train. This is an international train from Beijing to Moscow. At the same time, it is also the longest passenger train in China and has the reputation of "the first train in China". So what is the charm of this train?

K3 train, also known as K3/4 passenger train, 1959 started running, and it has been running for 62 years. In this half century, it rarely stopped, which is rare. At first, Soviet railways provided vehicles and undertook passenger transport services. 1960 handed over to China for passenger service. This train is of great significance and has promoted many contacts.

At that time, most people who took this train were government officials, scholars and other people with heavy responsibilities, and there were basically no ordinary passengers, so this train was called "mysterious oriental train" by foreigners. Later, with the development of the times, this train gradually became a freight train, and more and more businessmen gathered here. On this train line, there have been many stories before and after, such as the widely circulated "Sino-Russian train robbery", which once caused a sensation.

Because of the particularity of this train, many film and television dramas take the K3 train as the location, such as Ten Mysteries of China: great train robbery between China and Russia and Operation Moscow. The background of Xu zhēng's New Year movie Lost in Russia is also taken from K3 train, but the scenery outside the train is so beautiful that it attracts many viewers.

After 2000, K3 gradually became a special train for tourists, which was very popular with tourists. The train spans 7692 kilometers across Eurasia, only once a week. Depart from Beijing Railway Station on Wednesday and arrive in Moscow next Monday. A train takes about six days and six nights, which is unique in China.

What is more fascinating is the scenery outside the train window. A trip is sure to make tourists unforgettable. K3 train passes through Mongolia and Russia, passing through dozens of cities and stations.

After the train set off from Beijing, tourists entered a "scenic tour", and the outside of the window and the inside of the car were completely different worlds. For tourists who love the scenery of the journey, no one can refuse the scenic temptation of this international train.

Siberia's forests, endless grasslands, there will be several herdsmen's yurts from time to time. The world outside the window is as beautiful as a painting.

When the train arrived in Ulaanbaatar, skyscrapers rose from the grassland, bringing visitors different exotic customs of Mongolia. When the train arrived in Russia, a birch forest came into view. When the train passes the "blue eyes of Siberia"-Lake Baikal, tourists will be intoxicated with the beautiful scenery. Such a journey should not be too pleasant.

Along the way, tourists will pass grasslands, snow-capped mountains, birch forests, blue lagoon, wooden houses, rivers, mountain springs and railway bridges, and almost all types of landscapes in Europe have been experienced. Such a trip makes every tourist feel glad you came.

Not only do you have scenery on the road, but you can also talk to tourists from different countries and listen to different stories. Sometimes, the feeling of traveling is more impressive. Moreover, the trip of nearly six days and six nights is an excellent opportunity, just like in Lost Russia, and it is a good choice to meet.

However, the six-day and six-night trip is also a challenge for tourists, and some people can't help worrying about the configuration of K3 train. What's the difference between a train and an ordinary one?

K3 train has a heating period of 8~9 months a year. Because it has to pass through Siberia and other special areas and needs to be treated, this train uses a coal stove. Trains in different areas use different tracks. K3 always stops at Erenhot to change trains, so tourists can visit it, which is also a good scenery.

K3 train takes into account the travel time of tourists, so the configuration in the train compartment is very high, and the coal-electricity integrated tea stove is very distinctive. You can use electricity and coal, and you don't have to worry about coping with foreign climate at all. If tourists are bored, they can go to the bar in the carriage to chat and entertain. The superior box has a bathroom and all the basic facilities are available. Generally speaking, it is very comfortable.

It is worth mentioning that the dining car of K3 train is also a major feature. For example, when the train passes through Mongolia, the dining car will provide food that meets the special diet of Mongolia for tourists to choose from. When we arrive in Russia, we will change the dining car style in Russia. This detail is great, and visitors will have more choices and experiences.

It is very suitable to travel by K3 train all year round, and there will be different feelings and scenery. Such a unique train has different ways of purchasing tickets. It does not support any online ticket purchase and can only go to a specific ticket office.

K3 and other international trains can go to the international travel agency on the floor of Beijing International Hotel 1 to buy tickets, but there are basically no K3 tickets in other aspects. The whole price is about 3793 yuan for hard sleeper and 6080 yuan for senior box. You can also buy tickets in sections. Do you think it strange that a train ticket costs more than 6000 yuan?

But even so, in the tourist season, K3 train is often hard to get a ticket. After all, the charm of this train is too attractive. After this trip, passengers will gain more knowledge and come into contact with many new things. This is the charm of travel. Only the more places you have been, the deeper your understanding of the world will be.

When buying a train ticket, you should prepare the corresponding documents, and a basic passport is indispensable. To travel to Russia or Mongolia, you must also apply for a corresponding visa. Relatively speaking, visa processing is relatively simple, as long as the information is complete and a few hundred yuan can be processed. If time is urgent, it can be expedited, and there is basically no need to worry about documents.

Since the K3 train was put into operation, its mileage has already exceeded 50 million kilometers, which is equivalent to circling the earth 1200 times, and it has accepted 2 million passengers successively, which is of great significance to tourism and other industries and has promoted the exchange of tourists between China, Mongolia and Russia.

Just as the summer vacation is coming, if you don't know where to travel, you might as well try the K3 train, go abroad to see the outside world, feel the different local conditions and customs, and have a picturesque trip.
