How to get to Tibet

1. Train? Going to Tibet by train is one of the means of transportation that most people choose. On the train, you can enjoy the magnificent Qinghai-Tibet Railway, which extends from Xining City in Qinghai Province to Lhasa City in Xizang Autonomous Region. It is the plateau railway with the highest altitude and the longest route in the world.

2. the plane? The biggest advantage of flying to Tibet is that it is fast, but compared with the railway, it also has two disadvantages: high travel cost and short adaptation time. Although it seems that the plane won the whole trip for several days, it is the first time for tourists to go to the plateau, and the altitude of the plane suddenly rises by more than 3000 meters in an hour and a half, which is prone to altitude sickness.

3. Riding a horse? Riding a bicycle into Tibet is a favorite way for many cyclists to travel, especially today when the route of cycling into Tibet has become more and more mature, cycling into Tibet is no longer an unreachable dream.

4. Self-driving? Driving is also a good way to go to Tibet. Choosing this way means choosing a leisure trip. Because it saves the trouble of carrying luggage with you, you can bring relatively sufficient equipment.
