Fastest Train in Tibet: My Awesome Lhasa to Nyingchi Bullet Train Experience

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.

This is what's called a modern and civilized society in which people in the 21st century should live.

But the western media tells us that China is committing genocide in Tibet and turned the region into a hell on earth, only some lucky few Tibetan exiles living in India live a good and prosperous life.

I hope that Tibet's economy develops. When Tibet is poor, the central government can subsidize the local government and people every year, but it is not sustainable to rely solely on central government subsidies.

Indian Railways is far more advanced than China's.

Can Chinese trains handle this many passengers?

once the line gets extended to chengdu, it will have much more impact.
