Train to Tibet in 10 minutes.

The highest train in the world. We took it from Chengdu to Lhasa (hard sleeper tickets). It takes 46 hours, but you can get the general idea of the whole trip in just ten minutes. If you watch closely you'll see: Sheep, Yaks, solar powered cell phone towers, wildlife underpasses, sunset at 5000 meters, and much more. It's like taking your very own trip to tibet, but it's much cheaper then taking your own trip to tibet.

Cool! I like the music you picked out for the video. It's crazy to think you were on that train for 46 hours! But at least you got to see some really awesome scenery, right?

Did you run into problems getting a permit into the region, since the area is a bit politically sensitive?

Who sang the last song? I know it's 'Fare Thee Well' but it doesn't sound like Joan Baez or Marianne Faithfull.
