FOLLOWING the popularity of its car-transport scheme to Huangshan in east China’s Anhui Province, the Shanghai Railway Bureau will open another route to Tibet in summer for locals planning a holiday in the autonomous region.

Under the scheme, people can enjoy the sights of Tibet in their own vehicle.

“We expect the Shanghai-Tibet route to be popular for people who like to drive their own cars. Surveys revealed that there was strong demand for such a scheme,” said Wang Weiguo, deputy general manager of Shanghai Railway International Travel Co Ltd.
