Trans-Siberian train trip - 10 000 kilometers from Moscow to Beijing

Trans-Siperia on tunnustettu maailman pisimmäksi yksittäiseksi junaradaksi. Trans-Siperian päärata ulottuu 9288 kilometrin matkan Moskovasta Vladivostokiin ja junamatka kestää kokonaisuudessaan 6,5 vuorokautta. Trans-Siperia päärata haarautuu Ulan Uden kaupungissa, josta on mahdollista jatkaa Trans-Mongolian rataosuutta pitkin Mongolian halki aina Pekingiin saakka.

Rata on valmistunut 60 000 rakennusmiehen urakalla vuosina 1891–1916 ja sen rakentaminen on maksanut miltei miljardi jenkki taalaa.

Pääsimme vihdoin toteuttamaan tämän pitkäaikaisen haaveemme Trans-Siperialla matkustamisesta syyskuussa 2015, kun aloitimme elämämme pisimmän reissun, IKILOMAN, tällä maailmankuululla junamatkalla. Päädyimme valitsemaan Trans-Mongolia rataosuuden, koska halusimme nähdä Mongolian autiot arot ja Kiinan hektisen elämänrytmin.

Helsingistä Pekingiin matkasimme kaikkine pysähdyksineen 35 vuorokauden ajan. Lue vinkkejä Trans-Siperia matkaa varten täältä: ja täältä
