Starting from Urumqi, the New Oriental Express Snow Lotus features a scientifically designed closed-loop route, connecting the natural wonders of northern Xinjiang and the Silk Road culture of southern Xinjiang in one go. The 2026 itinerary covers diverse landscapes such as snow-capped mountains, lakes, grasslands, Gobi deserts, canyons, ancient cities, and poplar forests, balancing visual impact and cultural experiences.
Northern Xinjiang section: From the granite canyons of Keketuohai to the emerald secrets of Kanas Lake, and the misty log cabins of Hemu Village, it showcases the pure beauty of the Altai Mountains; the sunset light at Rainbow Beach, the azure lake surface of Sayram Lake, and the rolling meadows of Nalati Grassland are all paradises for photography enthusiasts.
Duku Highway section:Traverse the central and southern sections of the Duku Highway, one of China’s most beautiful roads, passing through the Nine Bends and Eighteen Turns of Bayanbulak, experiencing the vastness and tranquility of the alpine wetlands.
Southern Xinjiang section: Arrive at the ancient city of Kashgar, stroll through the old town streets, visit the Id Kah Mosque and the High Terrace Houses; continue west to the Pamir Plateau, check out White Sand Lake and Karakul Lake, and gaze at Muztagh Ata from afar; in autumn (mid-to-late October), you can also visit the Tarim Poplar Forest in Luntai to enjoy the golden, flame-like poplar scenery.
All scenic spots are arranged according to the latest 2026 opening policies. For example, Nalati Scenic Area has opened a self-driving reservation channel (requires advance booking via mini-program), and Sayram Lake offers birthday free tickets for specific zodiac sign visitors (those born in the Year of the Horse can enjoy it with ID).
