Lhasa one of the best traveling in china..many tourist amazing this area...wonderfull
love those people company....
amazing china 🇨🇳❤️🌹🙏
Nice one beb
I love how the chinese passengers leave you to your filming without bothering you, but still approachable when you reach out. I travelled on these green trains in china once on a hardseat aswell as a sleeper cabin, travelling the country ranging from 8 hours to 27 hours straight, and I did noticed its a very social happening in these trains, people talking to random strangers, eating, playing music, sitting in the hallway, doing their things, its very lively, almost like a community on a train :-) Great video, I admire your outgoing personality, good work!
How brave,makes so many friends in new place in different language, you so great 👍
Travelling by train is the most scenic experience and allows time for the body to acclimatize to higher altitude unlike flying into Lhasa airport. Wise choice to pay for a sleeper cabin. What a fascinating journey to the Tibetan plateau.

Traveling by train to acclimate to Lhasa’s high altitude only helps a little.

A few overnight stops during ascent may help offset altitude sickness. Try Rhodiola.
you showed very less beauty of the route btw nice vlog
Those who need to dilute their brains due to covid19 vaccinations or whatever medical reasons can take this route to get controlled amounts of water brain altitude sickness before returning (quick desend). Quick up, quick down effect similar to flying direct to Lhasa and stay for a few days. Plan amount of dilution and bring your own private nurse.

Great video, great vibes. No matter what, no matter where, make the most every situation 🤩
Thank you for sharing the video. It brings my memory in China back vividly. I miss the green train and the atmosphere of temporary travel community. It was very normal to chat and play card games with strangers to kill the time and even sharing food with each other.

Yes 2004 was the first time I took a train in China. So many great memories 🧡 Relived those moments.
It's an amazing thing when you come from one of the lowest altitude places to the highest altitude place on this planet
I took a green train to Kunming from Beijing long ago. It was a very relaxing journey. As others said, you are brave and cool! Take care.
Girl, you’re full of fun and adventure 🤣🤣😂😂
really hope i can travell to lhasa one day
damn. I love you energy and your social skills.
jorney in China is super safe, go anywhere you want and talk to anyone who willing to talk, safe safe safe!

China is really gorgeous. I am fed up with the lies of the Western mainstream media. This is the real Tibet. I heard that there are very few green trains in China, and these green trains are mainly provided as substitute for people with lower incomes.
Cool 👍
Your videos are informative and hilarious. Keep them coming!
I just started to watch yr video n was greeted with 'f- --' word n freaking words...must you??😮

@@tupolevi Oh yeah definitely, I agree with you. I'm from East Europe so I noticed it's also a little bit more common to do this here in comparison to West European countries where (from my experiences) being more extroverted, bolder with people makes you seem to be more... suspicious perhaps ? Well that's how I could describe it. So yeah, I totally get what you mean, hopefully I'll be able to show more of my personaliy in China as it seems like people are more open about these things.

You don't want to do that. That is dangerous. Everywhere you go, there are bad people and there are crazy cold-blooded murderers. Remember the former Soviet Union infested by KGB agents, one of the safest places on earth if you are not involved politically. They caught a serial killer after more than 200 random killings. I still can remember one Russian who remarked crazy people are non-productive but very cunning.

The green train is the old relatively slow train in China, while it is much cheaper than the express railway train.
Adventurous Once in a Lifetime Train ride. Wow ! I want to do it too. 👏 👏
At the station, on the opposite of the slow green train is the fastest green train.

Isn't it better to take a slower train, so your body has more time to adjust to high altitude and low oxygen? I read it somewhere, don't know if it is true.

Apparently taking the slow train only helps a little to get used to the low oxygen. It's better to stay 1 - 2 days in Xining if you're really afraid to get sickness altitude. Some of my family members have visited Tibet many times and they gave me three tips. 1. Mindset is most important. Think good = feel good. Think bad = feel bad. Be mentally and physically prepared and be in a happy, positive mood. 2. Don't use any oxygen masks or supplies, otherwise you'll never get used to it. 3. Buy 葡萄糖 (drinkable glucose) at the pharmacy, drink that in case you don't feel well They've also advised me to not drink alcohol, not talk too much and walk slowly but I was too hyped up and didnt do this at all haha
I remember from travelling hard class sleeper (6 shared and open) and hard class seat the people are more friendly, offering food etc. Soft class nobody is usually very friendly. Looks like fun. I'm old enough to have gone 40 hours on a steam train fueled by coal. Not many foreigners in those days, so people stared more, but friendly.
I really like your energy, take good care of yourself, and have fun in Tibet! Looking forward to more good videos!

Hey Nayomie, didn’t know you are a dutch! Had always thought you are an overseas Chinese like American or something… Anyway you are amazingly brave to do this Tibet ride by yourself! I am sure you will have a great time. I love Tibet. I was there 8 years ago. Lasah Tibet is mystical and I felt a sense of Enlightenment… tell us how you felt.

They were so kind. They invited me for dinner, shared drinks to me and others, etc.
I did this trip back in early 2007, took the soft sleeper option. Spent a lot of time in the dining car eating chilli chicken and watching the world go by. I remember by the end of the trip, the carpet in the corridors was sodden from of all the other passengers' tea and noodle spills.
Love you from USA NY Long Island

You are very smart to choose the train, 5 years ago I went to Tibet by plane, because of the pressure my body can not adapt, the train will give you time to get used to pressure 😄

I took a train from Shanghai to Lhasa in 2008. It was a 49 hours long ride.
Lol. Welcome to Tibet. But I will definitely to take green train to go to there. Hahaha
These trains are intentionally painted with green color to protect natural lives (looks more like the environment and not to scare the animals I guess), especially in the Qinghai and Tibet plateau area as the trains come across the natural reserve area. The high-speed Fuxing trains can be painted with different colors since they run on viaducts.
