About:Chengdu - Dujiangyan - Qingchengshan Train

Travelling from Chengdu to Lhasa/Tibet

Questions.
a What would be recommended high speed train to achieve the route Chengdu to Lhasa.
b. Applying for a visa seems a challenge. We would like to spend a week in Chengdu, a week in Xining, another week at another picturesque city in between and then Lhasa maybe 3 days, then retrace the route. Part of our purpose is sightseeing, also studying and deppening our knowledge of Chinese (guo yu).
c. Our planned itinerary would be March 2019 to April May 2019.

Thank you for your reply.

There is no high speed ride in Lhasa/Tibet yet, so you need to use normal sleeper rides for at least some part of the trip. Not sure which city to stop between Xining and Lhasa, but maybe you can consider other city like Zhangye. It is not far from Xining, you can get to there from Xining and back then continue the trip to Lhasa. By the way, to visiting Tibet, you would also need a Tibet travel permit.
