Trans Siberian 3

The final leg of the Trans Siberian train was a two day journey taking us out of Mongolia, into China and onto Beijing.

It had perhaps the most varied landscape of the whole train journey – crossing the Gobi Desert, before passing through North Chinese farmland and mountains with distant views of the great wall.

Beijing might be the end of the Trans Siberian but we’ve got lots more trains to come before we reach Hong Kong. Woo.

Our first class cabin actually had a shower on this train! It didn’t work but we didn’t mention that to all the 2nd class passengers we were gloating to.
