: Hi...I am thinking about taking the Transsiberian Railroad from Moscow to Beijing via Mongolia leaving Moscow about April 20, arriving Beijing about May 4. What is the weather like then? Has the snow thawed? I imagine that tickets are easy to get since it is not yet onseason. Any help appreciated.
Actually, there can still be snow in Siberia, and the lakes are frozen until April/May. It is a nice travel seasons anyway
Tickets should be easy to get, and you can purchase them locally at the train station.
Good luck
