1. There are two trains between Moscow and Beijing, four of which pass through Mongolia and Zhangjiakou. They leave at about 2 1: 30 every Tuesday night, and the travel time is 136 hours. It passes through Manzhouli, Harbin and Changchun for 20 times, leaving every Friday night at around 12, and the driving time is 149 hours. Depending on the car, the fare is between 220 and 350 dollars.
There are not many people taking the train now, and the public security on the train is not as terrible as the legend. However, the trains in Russia are not better than those in Europe. The so-called good conditions, that is, a four-person box, are not much better. Sitting for a week is also quite uncomfortable. The biggest advantage is that you can have unlimited luggage and see the Siberian forest. The end of September is 65438+1early October is the most beautiful time.
I heard from my friend that it is not difficult to buy a ticket, but I didn't ask the station for confirmation. If you are not in a hurry, I will go to the station to get it for you at the weekend. In Russia, you can only spend in rubles, and direct foreign exchange transactions are illegal unless you buy souvenirs at a stall. But it's convenient to change money in Moscow. There are exchange points everywhere in the street, where you can exchange euros and dollars.
Russia's public security is not good, robbery and rape in broad daylight, and Sino-Russian train robbery. You must have heard of it.
Those Russian bandits know that most people in China are businessmen and rich people. Focus on China people.
Besides safety, there are several issues that you must consider:
1 It takes a lot of time. It takes a week on the train. It is more than 9,000 kilometers from Moscow to Beijing via Manzhouli, at least 6 days and 6 nights.
Although two tickets are not as difficult to buy as they were 10 years ago, the service attitude is not very good and the luggage is particularly strict. And there are always Russian border guards who are either smuggling or smuggling.
There are few dressing rooms on the bus, and there are often queues during peak hours. The conductor will lock the door at every nearby station in Russia. In order to keep the station clean, he won't lock it when he arrives in China, TNND.
In China, I wonder if there is any blood test. I took it out without writing my name and threw it directly into the trash can, purely to collect money. Hundreds at a time. You can't do it without taking it out, because your passport has been detained by them. If you don't check it, you won't return it.

If we look at the world from the territory of China, you will be amazed at such a railway line, from Vladivostok on the Pacific coast to Chelyabinsk in the Ural Mountains, which is the dividing line between Europe and Asia, and Chelyabinsk was the site of the 2007 Shanghe military exercise. This line is trans-siberian railway, which spans Eurasia, and it is the traffic artery of Russian Siberia-Far East. When the k3 international train from Beijing Railway Station left Erenhot and entered Russian territory via Ulaanbaatar, the tracks extending from Mongolia joined trans-siberian railway, and the intersection was only more than half a day away from the legendary Lake Baikal.
K3 international train fare is 2,700 yuan, plus Mongolian transit visa 180 yuan, which is about 2,900 yuan. I know, after hard work, I may find a ticket from Beijing to Moscow for 3000-4000 yuan online. It only takes seven or eight hours by plane to Moscow, but it takes six days and five nights by train. However, June+10 in 5438 is the late autumn season in Russia, and the distant Siberia is full of endless imagination. The vast lake Baikal, golden birch forest, tough and bold Russian farm ... time and price are not the reasons why I can miss this route. I chose this route without hesitation, and I went from Beijing to the School of Asian and African Studies of Moscow University to exchange and study.
On the train timetable, this line is marked as "Beijing-Ulaanbaatar-Moscow", but the protagonist of this line is neither Beijing, Ulaanbaatar nor Moscow, but Siberia.
The train departs from Beijing Railway Station at 7: 45 a.m. on Wednesday, passes through Zhangjiakou South, Datong and Jining South, and arrives at Erenhot at 8: 00 p.m. This is a border checkpoint in China, where passports will be stamped with exit stamps, and passengers need to fill in customs declaration forms for articles (luggage) and change tracks at the same time, because the tracks in China are different from those in Mongolia and Russia. Track changing is carried out in the "International Wheel Changing Warehouse". The train carriages were hoisted section by section, and the rails in China were removed and replaced with Russian rails. During the whole process, passengers did not need to get off the bus and did not feel any vibration. Because of track change and border inspection, the train will stop at Erlian for about 3 hours. At 1 1 pm, the train left Erenhot and entered Mongolia. Immediately stop at the Mongolian border checkpoint to handle the entry (transit) visa inspection and cargo declaration procedures in Mongolia. Arrived in Ulaanbaatar the next afternoon 1, and arrived at the Mongolian border again at around 9 pm for Mongolian exit inspection. Ulaanbaatar time is similar to Beijing time, so there is no need to adjust the watch.
Mongolia entered Russia at the afternoon of Ulaanbaatar time 10, and Moscow time was four hours later than Beijing time, so it entered Russia at around 6 pm Moscow time. The train stops at the border of Nowsky (наушки), where it checks the Russian entry visa and fills in the cargo declaration form and entry card. The inspection here is more detailed. At this point, the cumbersome border inspection has finally ended, and the train runs on the vast land of Siberia. Passing through Lake Baikal, Irkutsk, KraSi Nuo Yarsk, Novosibirsk, omsk and Tyumen Oilfield (probably near here, the train stopped going to trans-siberian railway and turned to the eastern European plain in the northwest), and entered Yekaterinburg in the Ural Mountains. Yeka is also called Sverdlovsk now. After crossing the Urals, the train officially entered Europe, and then passed Belmi, Kirov and the ancient capital Vladimir.
This line * * * passes through three countries, runs through the north and south of Mongolia, passes through at least 14 administrative units in Russia (states, * * * and countries, autonomous regions and frontier regions), passes through the Mongolian Plateau, the Blauf Mountains on the border between Mongolia and Russia, Lake Baikal, the deepest inland lake in the world, the southern part of the Central Siberian Plateau and the southern part of the Western Siberian Plain, and then enters the Eastern European Plain. It takes 65,438+0 days for the train to leave China, 65,438+0 days to pass through Mongolia, and the remaining four days will run on the vast Russian territory.
