That it is necessary to know at independent travel to China
Travel to China can sometimes be accompanied неуввязками. Overland routes to Tibet are perfectly debugged, though such travel at physical level are rather heavy. In borders of China the only officially resolved option of travel to Tibet - a trip from Golmud to Lhasa. For the turnaround ticket of CITS raises a scandalous payment - CNY 1700 (they do not sell one way tickets). You can change it on road service station in Lhasa though the most part of tourists simply throw out the turnaround ticket and take off from Lhasa by plane. Happens, tourists try to reach to Lhasa, without addressing in CITS, preferring independent travel to China. They rise on the road from Golmud, wait the passing bus and agree specifically with the driver. Others столковываются with the local businessmen turning about road service station. Can test to leave Golmud such method and you - at least, not to pay mad means. At travellers the route to Tibet from Katmandu - through Kodari on the Nepalese party of border and to Zangma on the Tibetan earth uses great popularity. Though the tourists who have chosen this way, invariable configurations in the rules concerning arrival to Tibet, and happening delays in a way - in the summer because of mud landslides, and in the winter - because of snow drifts on passes irritate. In any case, the visa to Tibet in the Chinese embassy in Katmandu to tourists issue only under condition of purchase of group round in Katmandu agency. If you have planned a trip to China without the aid of others, you are obliged to have the Chinese visa even before arrival to Katmandu, and even in this case permission of the Union of Travellers to a trip to Lhasa, necessary $30, to them will be provided only upon purchase of group round to the Tibetan capital. Therefore the best rest in China can be impaired a little a little in Tibet.
Rest in China from Yekaterinburg. Will suffice to become dusty in an office, vanish and learn the most ancient culture together with us.
