World's longest train journey covers three countries where passengers can travel using a single ticket, name is.., time duration...
The longest train journey in the world is a unique ride. It includes one ticket; you can also visit three different countries. It is a long enough distance that they call it the longest train journey in the world. You will have exciting adventures, you will see landscapes that take your breath away, and you will have experiences that you will never forget.
The Trans-Siberian Railway is the world's longest trip by train, which runs from Moscow, Russia to Pyongyang, North Korea, covering a distance of 10,214 km and taking 7 days, 20 hours, and 25 minutes. It travels through 142 stations and 87 cities. The train connects three countries: Russia, Mongolia, and North Korea. This is an exceptional travel opportunity.
The train service began in 1916, when Russia established a rail network to further the development of Siberia. The aim was to increase the population and economy of the region. Construction began in the nineteenth century under Tsar Alexander III and after 25 years efforts became the longest railway route in the world.
The Trans-Siberian train travels 10,214 kilometers, making the longest train ride to be found anywhere in the world. The train begins its journey in Moscow and ends in Vladivostok, and continues to Pyongyang, North Korea. During this journey, the train crosses 16 main rivers, a variety of mountains, forests and snow covered plains. This trip passes through all eight time zones.
This train makes a connection between three countries-Russia, Mongolia, and North Korea-with a single ticket. Along this route, guests are treated to breathtaking sights such as Lake Baikal, the Ural Mountains and Siberia's forestry. This train has both first, second, and third class accommodations, which gives a nice blend of culture and nature.

Kiwis in Australia get Medicare, welfare payments, but Aussies to face new entry fees for New Zealand's top attractions; here's why
Synopsis New Zealand will introduce a conservation levy in 2027, charging international tourists, including Australians, between $18 and $36 to visit popular natural sites like Milford Sound and Tongariro Crossing. The scheme aims to generate funds for environmental protection, facility upgrades, and job creation, addressing the impact of high tourist traffic. Locals will be exempt from the fees. Cathedral Cove is one of the four destinations where Australians need to pay to visit, the others are Tongariro Crossing, Milford Sound and Mount Cook. (Image: Tourism New Zealand) Australian tourists will soon have to pay between $18 and $36 to visit some of New Zealand's most famous natural sites, under a new conservation scheme announced by the NZ government. The plan, which exempts locals but applies to all overseas visitors, aims to raise tens of millions of dollars for environmental protection and job creation. Prime Minister Christopher Luxon and Conservation Minister Tama Potaka revealed the changes at the National Party annual conference in Christchurch, reported by the Daily Telegraph. It was also just days before Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was due to visit Queenstown for bilateral the Aussie PM is visiting New Zealand for bilateral visitor levy will be charged to all international tourists (including Australians) visiting four key attractions: Cathedral Cove Tongariro Crossing Milford Sound Aoraki/Mount Cook Entry will remain free for New Zealand citizens, and Luxon says these sites are part of the locals' 'collective inheritance.' The NZ government says international visitors make up 80 per cent of traffic to these locations, creating pressure on infrastructure and the scheme, worth NZ$62 million, will: Fund conservation work Upgrade facilities Support local jobs and wages Mr Potaka compared the move to entry fees at national parks in Australia, the US, and Canada, though locals pay the same fees as tourists in those countries. Charges will range between: NZ$20 (AU$18) and NZ$40 (AU$36) per person Exact prices will depend on the site visited. The money will be reinvested directly into the conservation of these attractions. The fee system is set to begin in 2027. Australians will not be exempt despite the trans-Tasman Travel Arrangement, which allows citizens to live and work in each other's countries without visas. According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, around 2.27 per cent or about 618,000 New Zealand-born people lived in Australia, making them the fourth largest overseas-born population in group includes those living for various reasons, such as business, permanent residence, and study. The number gradually increased from around 598,000 in 2023 to about 583,000 in 2024, New Zealand citizens, those traveling on New Zealand passports, accounted for 85 per cent of the 47,300 migrant departures to Australia and 67 per cent of the 17,300 migrant arrivals from Australia. In comparison, in 2023, these figures were 84 per cent for departures and 61 per cent for residing in Australia can access Medicare, domestic university fees, and welfare payments, including pensions, rent assistance, and disability support services.

Flying soon? Here are the world's most turbulent flight routes
When a Delta flight from Salt Lake City to Amsterdam was forced into an emergency landing in Minneapolis last week, passengers described the violent shaking like an earthquake. According to CNN, 25 people were taken to hospital after the aircraft hit severe turbulence that sent passengers and service carts slamming into the cabin ceiling. It was the latest in a string of turbulence-related incidents that have raised concerns. The most turbulent route is the 120-mile trip between Mendoza, Argentina, and Santiago, Chile, which crosses the Andes, the world's longest continental mountain range. Flying over the Andes exposes planes to powerful air waves that can travel hundreds of miles, Turbli founder Ignacio Gallego Marcos told CNN. Other turbulence hotspots include: Turbulence occurs when air currents are disrupted, much like a river's smooth flow encountering a boulder. Mountains, thunderstorms, and sudden wind shifts can all create instability. US National Transportation Safety Board data shows turbulence caused more than 200 serious injuries in the US between 2009 and 2024. While fatalities are rare, experts warn that turbulence incidents are becoming more frequent: a trend they link to climate change. However, not all turbulence is visible. Clear-air turbulence occurs without warning, often near jet streams, and is caused by rapid changes in wind speed or direction. Japan's strong jet stream, created when frigid Siberian air collides with warm Pacific currents, makes its skies some of Asia's bumpiest. Similar patterns affect the North Atlantic Corridor, where warm Gulf Stream air meets cold Canadian air, UK Met Office scientist Piers Buchanan told CNN. A 2023 study cited by CNN found severe clear-air turbulence over the North Atlantic was 55% more frequent in 2020 than in 1979, with increases of 41% over the continental US. By the end of the century, scientists say it could double or even triple globally. Thunderstorm turbulence, most common near the equator, can be sudden and intense. While pilots use radar to avoid storms, unpredictable bursts of turbulent air can still occur. Aviation experts believe such conditions may have played a role in the London–Singapore flight incident last year when the plane encountered storms over Myanmar. Researchers are now examining whether climate change, by increasing atmospheric moisture, could make thunderstorms, and their turbulence, more severe. (With inputs from CNN)
