Photo AlbumTO TIBET BY TRAIN ( The train )Jan 31, '08 1:58 AM
for everyone
This is a three series of my solo train trip to Lhasa/Tibet in April 2007. From Yangon/Myanmar, I flew to Chengdu/China via Bangkok. The Chengdu-Lhasa train trip took 48 hours non stop. This train,-one year old-, as u see, is very modern and well equipped. Each compartment has 4 beds. U are endulged by the white sheet,fluffy pillow,soft warm blanket, private TV, audio and.....private oxygen supply. The trip was extraordinary...awesome....speechless.... it goes thru different sceneries, crawling up high to 5500 meter altitude.This first series is about the Yangon/Myanmar-Chengdu/China trip and the Changdu-Lhasa train.It is a MUST trip, thumbs up!!

Iya say, satu kamar tuk 4 orang tapi aku beruntung, hanya punya satu room mate, a chinese girl who is also travelling alone.Sip lah, dia yang lakuin komunikasi dalam bahasa cina sama pegawai2 k.a-nya.............jadinya we got mostly what we want .
