雨季从樟木口岸陆路去尼泊尔的惊险攻略Adventure Guide: Overland from China border to Nepal During Monsoon Season

如题，这次又选择了陆路出国，每次必定逃不过十个小时左右的汽车，这次是坐从日喀则开往聂拉木的班车7个小时（我是从拉孜县城中途上车的），全程要9个小时。然后聂拉木住一晚，物价贼高，没什么好转的一个县城，水质都是浑浊的。

第二天一早早点去加油站旁边院子里坐去樟木口岸的面包车，一辆车能坐12个人，坐满就发车，我们是九点四十发车，单程1个半小时（不包括堵车的时间），我们就是路上碰到施工车硬是堵了40分钟左右，你若去晚了再加上塞车就要等2点左右的车了。下车就是中国边检，出来走5分钟就到尼泊尔边检，过完安检左手边有个办公室别忘去盖章，电子签提前网上申请好秒下。

接着一群拉客的，100-120RMB一人的吉普车，4个小时到加德满都，右手边有个旅行社办公室可以换汇，18.5，一个装自己是西藏人的尼泊尔人中文很好，想要赚我汇率差，不过没让他得逞。想坐大巴车的往前继续走20分钟可以到一个商店，那里可以买票，550rs，出发时间是尼泊尔时间下午一点半

全程需要6个小时，路上村民要上下车，我还遇到了中途修车和掉到坑里…可以说是非常曲折了晚上七点半车会停在终点站Jadibuti Bus park，出门左手边直走个10分钟可导航Galaxy Mobile Service Centre，办手机卡N-cell 600rs 20GB一个月，打摩的到泰米尔140rs

Once again, I chose to travel abroad by land, which inevitably involves a grueling 10-hour bus ride. This time, it was a *7-hour bus journey from Shigatse (Xigazê) to Nyalam* (I boarded midway in Lhatse County), with the full trip taking **9 hours**.

*Nyalam: A Pricey and Grim Stopover*
Stayed overnight in **Nyalam**—a bleak, overpriced border town with murky tap water.
Early the next morning, I took a *shared minivan* (12 passengers) from the yard next to the gas station.
**Departure**: 9:40 AM (waited until full).
**Travel time**: 1.5 hours (excluding delays).
*Delay**: Got stuck for **40 minutes* due to road construction.
*Warning**: If you leave late and hit traffic, you might have to wait for the **2:00 PM* van.

*Border Crossing: Zhangmu (Dram) to Nepal*
*China Immigration**: Get off at the checkpoint, exit, and walk **5 mins* to Nepal immigration.
**E-Visa Tip**: Apply online beforehand for instant approval.
*Don’t Forget**: After Nepal immigration, go to the **left-side office* for an entry stamp.

*Transport to Kathmandu*
**Jeep Option (4 hrs, 100-120 RMB/person)**:
Touts swarm the exit—negotiate firmly.
*Money Exchange**: A "Tibetan-speaking" Nepali guy (fluent in Chinese) tried scamming me on rates—watch out! The rate was **18.5* (RMB to NPR).
**Bus Option (6 hrs, 550 NPR)**:
Walk *20 mins* further to a shop selling tickets.
**Departure**: 1:30 PM (Nepal time).
**Chaotic Ride**: Frequent stops, breakdowns, and even **getting stuck in a ditch**—typical Nepali bus adventure!
*Arrival**: Reached **Jadibuti Bus Park* by **7:30 PM**.

*Kathmandu Arrival Tips*
*SIM Card**: Head left from the bus park, walk **10 mins* to *Galaxy Mobile Service Centre* for an *Ncell SIM* (600 NPR = 20GB/month).
*To Thamel**: Took a **motorbike taxi* for **140 NPR**.
