Train 2: Xi’an – Lanzhou

Xi’an to Lanzhou

Train K2629 (23:25-08:11)
Length: c.a. 9 hours
Ticket Price: 168RMB
Ticket Type: Aircondition Hard Sleep (新空調硬卧-中鋪)

Tips: We took this overnight train, which went really well as we went straight to bed once we boarded the train and woke up arriving in Lanzhou.

But of course, there was more than an hour delay of the train, so we boarded the train at around 1:30 am.

There are three-decker beds on the train, depending on your preference, but it would be a good idea to get the lowest decker for those who are tall (which is the most ‘spacious’ one as shown in the photo below).
