Im going to be in Lhasa and I want to travel to Kham from there. How do I do that?
A. To reach Kangding from Lhasa, the best way is to fly from Lhasa to Chengdu, then take a bus to Kangding (7 hours). If you want to travel overland, you will need to spend 3-4 days driving from Lhasa to reach the Sichuan border. If you’re not a Chinese national, then you’ll need to arrange a travel permit and car through a travel agency. Once you reach the Sichuan border a travel permit is no longer needed and you have two more days of driving to reach Kangding. These last two days of driving will take you through a number of counties where we have active or completed programs.
