Is there high-speed train from Xi’an to Lhasa?

Unfortunately, there is no high-speed train from Xi’an to Lhasa, and there is no plan to introduce one in the near future. However, there are trains that can take you to Lhasa in Tibet, which depart from Xi’an railway station daily.

Instead, the trains from Shanghai and Guangzhou stop in Xi’an, and in the winter, you can normally book a ticket from there. In the peak season, the trains are normally full before departing from Shanghai and Guangzhou.

Your alternative to taking the direct train is to take a normal train on to Lanzhou or Xining, and then board the trains to Tibet from there, as these are both stations that have direct railway access to Tibet. Xining is the best option for this, as the train is longer, having more carriages to carry more passengers.
