The newly upgraded ‘Splendid Tianfu’ Panda Special Train in 2026 connects 8,000 kilometers of highlights across northern and southern Xinjiang in a mobile space of Eastern aesthetics. This is not an ordinary train journey but a slow luxury trip blending Bashu cultural charm with the natural beauty of the Western Regions.
🌄 Route Highlights:Traversing the Four Seasons of Xinjiang in a Moving Palace
The ‘Splendid Tianfu’ is built by China Railway Chengdu Group, with 18 carriages and 92 recommended seats. It features a hotel-style welcome hall, en-suite cabins, and multi-functional observation carriages, creating a highly private and comfortable travel environment. The train’s design theme is ‘Shu Brocade and Song Dynasty Elegance,’ with Eastern lifestyle aesthetics reflected in everything from soft furnishings to spatial layout.
The itinerary spans northern Xinjiang’s lakes and grasslands, the Ili River Valley, the Duku Highway, southern Xinjiang’s ancient cities, and desert oases, covering classic destinations like Kanas, Hemu, Sayram Lake, Nalati, Kashgar Old City, and the Pamir Plateau. Special experiences include a welcome banquet at Heavenly Lake Tianshan, a concert at the Jiaohe Ruins, and a Turpan fruit feast, fostering deep connections between nature and culture.
