🚂 【Slow Journey to the Western Regions · Special Train Tour】Yangtze River Delta Star Tourism Special Train Product Launched
When fast-paced life becomes the norm, a deep journey of ‘traveling by day, sleeping by night, moving with the train’ might be the lifestyle you long for. In 2026, the Yangtze River Delta Star Tourism Special Train—’Yangtze River Delta Star’—is newly launched, featuring comfortable cabins, full land first-class shuttle service, and a no-shopping itinerary throughout, taking you across the Tianshan Mountains for an immersive experience of Xinjiang’s diverse landscapes and cultural attractions.
🌄 Detailed Route and Destinations
The 17-day itinerary of ‘Yangtze River Delta Star’ spans the essence of Southern, Northern, and Eastern Xinjiang, connecting natural and cultural landmarks such as deserts, lakes, grasslands, canyons, and ancient cities. From the Lop Nur Village on the edge of the Taklamakan Desert to the White Sand Lake and Karakul Lake on the Pamir Plateau; from the alleyways of Kashgar Old City to the magnificent and rugged Duku Highway; and then to Hemu’s morning mist, Kanas Lake’s reflections, and Sayram Lake’s clarity… The scenery unfolds layer by layer at a relaxed pace, suitable for travelers seeking deep experiences and avoiding frequent transfers.
Currently (April 2026), spring is gradually arriving in Xinjiang, and scenic spots in Southern and Northern Xinjiang have opened one after another. According to public information from cultural and tourism authorities, core scenic spots such as Kanas, Hemu, Sayram Lake, and Nalati are all receiving tourists normally, with supporting services like shuttle buses and boat rides operating orderly. The Duku Highway is expected to open in early June based on snowmelt conditions, and the itinerary will be adjusted by the tour leader and driver according to actual road conditions, balancing effort and experience.

Whether it’s the vastness of the Pamir Plateau, the preview of Kanas autumn colors, or the breeze by Sayram Lake, it’s worth slowing down and savoring quietly.
In 2026, Xinjiang welcomes visitors from all over with an open attitude.
