🌿 Highlights of the Tianshan Number special train and its routes
As a brand special train created by Xinjiang Railway, the Tianshan Number has received much praise from tourists since its launch. In 2026, the special train has completed a comprehensive hardware upgrade, adopting blue diamond carriage formations, paired with dining cars, bar cars, and multi-functional carriages, with more complete functional layouts. The carriages offer multiple room types that can be selected as needed to meet the needs of different travelers. The multi-functional carriage features a sightseeing and leisure area, a wellness and massage area, a chess and card entertainment area, and has added a parent-child activity corner and a convenience service corner. During the journey, passengers can enjoy views of the Gobi desert, snow-capped mountains, and grasslands from the window, or participate in leisure activities inside the carriage to relieve the fatigue of long-distance travel. In response to Xinjiang’s vast territory and large temperature differences between day and night, the 2026 Tianshan Number special train is equipped with full-time medical staff throughout the journey, along with convenience medicine kits, wheelchairs, and other support supplies for a more reassuring travel experience.
The special train adopts a combined “train + bus” travel model, leveraging the advantage of “the vehicle follows the people, people play while the vehicle stops.” Tourists do not need to repeatedly move luggage or change accommodation. The itinerary is well-paced, and accommodation combines train sleeper berths with local hotels, balancing travel convenience and living experience. The entire route connects more than ten well-known scenic spots across northern and southern Xinjiang, covering both natural scenery and cultural landscapes.
The clear waters of Tianchi Lake at Tianshan reflect the snow-capped peak of Bogda Peak, surrounded by spruce forests along the shore. Strolling along the lakeside path, you can enjoy the fresh mountain air. The waters of Kanas Lake change colors with the light, and the surrounding primeval forests and tranquil villages create a layered landscape. Hemu’s wooden houses are scattered in an orderly fashion, with morning mist floating above the village at dawn, paired with distant snow mountains for a relaxing view. Sayram Lake is embraced by mountains, with its azure surface echoing the wildflowers on the shore and the distant snow peaks, making it a favorite spot for photography enthusiasts. The Guozigou Bridge spans the valley, blending with the surrounding natural scenery, offering views of the canyon and forests while driving across. Liuxing Street features unique street layouts with many specialty shops along the way, perfect for a leisurely stroll to experience the local atmosphere. The grasslands of Nalati are lush, with distant snow mountains, nearby meadows, and grazing herds forming an expansive landscape. Bayanbulak’s wetlands stretch far and wide, with the Kaidu River winding through the grassland, and the sunset light casting a picturesque glow on the water. The southern section of the Duku Highway showcases diverse landscapes, with rich variations from grasslands to canyons. The buildings on Restan Old Street are distinctive, and walking along the street allows you to feel the strong local atmosphere. The Pamir Plateau features magnificent terrain, with the clear waters of Karakul Lake beside Muztagh Ata Peak. The Stone City and Golden Grassland sit adjacent to each other, and the combination of wetlands and ancient city ruins is quite striking. A Tajik home visit offers insight into local customs, while the white sand mountains of Baisha Lake contrast beautifully with the azure waters. The old city of Kashgar has crisscrossing streets and alleys, with shops selling various specialty goods along the way. The Fragrant Concubine Garden and other sites feature unique architectural styles. The Danxia landforms of Tianshan Wensu Grand Canyon are spectacular, and walking through the canyon reveals the wonders of nature. The pastoral scenery of Ta Village is leisurely and perfect for relaxation. The Flaming Mountains have a striking red appearance and are hot in summer, making them a very distinctive natural landscape. At the grape estates, you can taste fresh grapes of different varieties, and the Karez irrigation system is a unique local irrigation method that showcases the wisdom of the local working people.
In 2026, most popular scenic spots in Xinjiang adopt a real-name reservation system. Sayram Lake requires reservation 3 days in advance on the platform, Nalati self-drive tickets are released 7 days in advance, Kanas and Hemu are recommended to be reserved 2-3 days in advance, and Tianshan Tianchi can be reserved and purchased on the same day.

During the trip, please comply with the relevant regulations of the scenic areas, do not enter undeveloped or unopened areas without authorization, travel civilly, take away any garbage generated, and follow relevant regulations when using fire within scenic areas.
If extreme weather, temporary traffic control, or other force majeure factors affect the itinerary, please cooperate with the reasonable arrangements of the staff and communicate with the designated staff in a timely manner if there are any issues.
