we are planning a trip from chengdu to lhasa for 2 weeks in february 2012.
could you advise us on train schedules and fares? will there be scenic stopovers along the way? is there anything interesting to do other than drink yak butter tea and riding horses?
David :8/17/2011 8:47:00 PM
hi Puah,
you can find the train schedule and fare on this page, and the train will not stop at scenic spots, but you can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the way in the cabin.
if you go there in February, you may encounter their celebrations for the new year.
