| Abstract | Probably the most famous trip ever made from Xi'an to Lhasa was more than 1,300 years ago by a princess on her way to marry the King of Tubo (now Tibet). It took the princess, her handmaidens and escorts more than two years to reach Lhasa. Now, with the opening of the Xi'an Lhasa air route, travellers can complete the same distance in about two and half hours. |
