Z165 Tibet Train Experience

Guangzhou✈️Xining🚞Lhasa
You can spend a few hours in Xining during the day
164 and 165 are the same train, but the train changes from non-oxygen to oxygen in Xining. The schedule is different from before⏰
The best scenery in Hoh Xil is missed in the first half of the journey
We recommend choosing a train that departs later
We only got a soft sleeper the night before departure
