Frequently Asked Questions about Chongqing Tibet Train Tour

Among all the train stations in Chongqing, Chongqing North Railway Station is the only one that offers Tibet trains to Lhasa. Formerly known as the Longtou Temple Station, the station is provided with two separate departure halls, the North Square and South Square. And the Tibet train from Chongqing to Lhasa departs from the south square.

One thing should be noted is that, there is no passage connecting the south square and the north square. So please confirm you will reach the right square before taking the bus or subway for transfer.

2. How far in advance to book the train ticket from Chongqing to Tibet?

In China, the train ticket is usually released 30 days earlier before the departure date for online booking, and 28 days for purchasing at the train station. As there is only one train running from Chongqing to Lhasa every other day, it can be difficult to get a train ticket of the required travel date. So when booking the Chongqing to Lhasa train ticket, it is advised to make your reservation as early as possible.
