Top 10 Incredible Train Trips" The controversial Qinghai-Tibet Railway opened in 2006 and was the first train to access the Tibet Autonomous Region because of its altitude. At its highest point, the track runs at more than 16,000 feet (4,877 meters) above sea level, making it the world's highest altitude train. The trip from Beijing to Lhasa takes about 45 hours. A large portion of the tracks on the Lhasa leg of the trip are built on permafrost, a permanently frozen layer of soil. The train winds up through the Kunlun Shan and Tanggula mountain ranges.

Travel guru Matt Kepnes puts that myth to rest with this guide to traveling on little (or no) money. I recently asked subscribers of my newsletter about the number one thing that holds them back from traveling. Money This is something I hear from everyone I talk to. “Matt, I simply don’t have enough money to travel.” This problem and how to overcome it probably my most asked question. I answer this question in a plethora of posts, e-mails, tweets, and Facebook posts. Since this question comes up so often, I like to constantly remind people of this fact: You do not need to be rich to travel. Let’s repeat that. You do not need to be rich to travel. I sure wasn’t. Yet I managed to save enough to travel the world. What is your savings priority?

Budget Travel Advice: Top 10 Travel Mistakes and How Not to Make Them A classic travel mistake is to stick to the beaten path.
