Getting to Lhasa can be done by flight from mainland China or Nepal, or by train from one of seven gateway stations across China. Flights are generally the fastest way to get to Tibet, and there are more than two dozen airports across China that have direct flights to the Lhasa Gonggar International Airport. Alternatively, you can fly into Lhasa from Kathmandu in Nepal, the only country with international access to the TAR. However, the flights are rather costly, and not affordable for everyone.
The cheaper option, and often the better one, is to take one of the seven trains from mainland China to Lhasa, which depart daily or every other day from Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu, Chongqing, Lanzhou, and Xining. The trains can take from 22 to 53 hours to reach the Tibetan capital, but are much cheaper than flights, and you get to see the stunning landscapes of northern Tibet, something people that fly to Lhasa never get to admire. We can also help with your flight or train booking, to ensure that you can get the transport you desire on your expected dates of travel.
