 It is more convenient to travel to Tibet because of the operation of Tibet railway. It is also crowded to take the train for the large amount of travelers.

Will you take the train to Tibet in this case?

Yes, I will. I think taking the train is not only cheaper, but also offers more time to adapt to the high altitudes, and I can appreaciate more scenery along the railway.
Though it is difficult to but a train ticket, the train does not sell tickets without seats, it is not crowded on the train as other Chinese trains. I would sacrifice some time to book it in advance. :)

Hi Kensg, can we use a copy of the travel permit instead of the original to buy a ticket?

Original Tibet permit is more secure and we also have our original tibet permit from TibetFit, tibetfit.service@gmail.com.

Hi Cynthia, the copy of travel permit is not allowed, you have to use the original to buy the ticket.
