Exploring Beautiful Xinjiang:Sunset Red Special Train ‘New National Train’ In-Depth Experience Journey🌄
[Detailed Introduction to the Route or Destination]
Xinjiang, a vast land covering one-sixth of China’s territory, is a treasure where nature and culture intertwine. In 2026, the ‘New National Train’ Sunset Red Special Train, designed specifically for middle-aged and elderly travelers, sets off again. With ‘slow travel, deep experience’ at its core, it connects the highlights of northern and southern Xinjiang, allowing silver-haired travelers to experience the geographical wonder of ‘wearing a fur coat in the morning and a gauze at noon’ at a comfortable pace, and savor the diverse cultures of various ethnic groups.
The special train features all-soft sleeper carriages, each equipped with charging ports, constant temperature air conditioning, and an emergency call system. Accompanying doctors and professional guides are provided throughout the journey to address the concerns of middle-aged and elderly travelers. The itinerary covers the scorching deserts of Turpan, the fairy-tale forests of Kanas, the thousand-year-old烟火 of Kashgar’s ancient city, and the melodious pastoral songs of the Nalati Grassland, allowing travelers to fully appreciate Xinjiang’s magnificent landscape of ‘three mountains and two basins’ within 14 days.
