About:Takla Makan Desert

What if I take a plane to Russia and get on the express train into China to Taklamakan that way?

Thanks Mr. James : )
But I think I've found a better solution if you live in Norway : p

Of course it's gonna take while, but it seems alot easier.

I wonder if it possible to get to Taklamakan that way?
Or if it's possible to get to Xinjiang..

When you arrive in Beijing, you can take a flight or train to Urumqi, and from Urumqi, take a train to Korla, there are buses from Korla to the desert. Good trip!

I worked in the Tarim basin, based at Korla, for a year on 8 week rotations. My company arranged my travel which was to fly from Nan Yuan airport in Beijing direct to Korla on the Chinese airline, and vicky verky.

Always went without a hitch except on one trip when Nan Yuan airport staff thought I was geting on the wrong aircraft and tried to send me to Russia! LOL!

It was '96 - '97, so a while ago ... things could have changed but could be worth looking in to.

Cheers
