🚂 [Slow Travel Xinjiang, Special Train Departs] — ‘Yangtze River Delta Star’ 17-Day Panoramic Journey, Immersed in the Silk Road Mountains and Rivers
Want to capture the vastness and poetry of Xinjiang in your memory with a leisurely journey? In 2026, the ‘Yangtze River Delta Star’ tourist special train sets sail again, departing from Shanghai, crossing east to west, connecting southern Xinjiang’s culture, northern Xinjiang’s scenery, and the hinterland of the Tianshan Mountains. With a rhythm of ‘travel by day, rest by night,’ the journey reduces hustle and increases ease.
🌄 Route Highlights:A Deep Experience Traversing Diverse Landscapes
The ‘Yangtze River Delta Star’ is not a superficial check-in trip but a panoramic tour covering Xinjiang’s core landscapes. The itinerary goes from east to west, first arriving in Korla, delving into the edge of the Taklamakan Desert, visiting the Lop Nur Village—a living relic of ancient fishing and hunting culture; then entering the Pamir Plateau region, passing by白沙湖 (White Sand Lake) and Karakul Lake, overlooking the snow-capped peak of Muztagh Ata, and experiencing the historical echoes of highland lakes and the Stone City in Tashkurgan.
Turning to northern Xinjiang, the train takes you into the Ili River Valley—the aerial pastures of Nalati Grassland are lush green, Sayram Lake is like a sapphire set among snow-capped mountains; further north, the birch forests and wooden houses of Hemu Village appear faintly in the morning mist, the blue waters of Kanas Lake reflect the autumn colors of the Altai Mountains (especially stunning in autumn); on the return journey, the Yadan landforms of五彩滩 (Colorful Beach) shimmer in the sunset, and Heavenly Lake of Tianshan bids farewell with its tranquil waters.
The entire journey covers deserts, rivers, grasslands, snow-capped mountains, lakes, canyons, ancient cities, and other landscapes, balancing natural wonders and cultural heritage, suitable for travelers who want to systematically understand Xinjiang’s geography and cultural context.
