    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!

    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.

    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.

    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

    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.
