🚂 【New Oriental Express Xuelian No.:A mobile “five-star home” unlocking a new way to deeply explore Xinjiang】🚂

And see snow-capped mountains and grasslands?” If your impression of Xinjiang tourism is still “long bus rides + ordinary accommodation,” then the fully upgraded 2026 “New Oriental Express Xuelian No.” will completely overturn your perception! This tourist train, called a “mobile five-star hotel” by travelers, not only redefines train travel with configurations like gold-diamond rooms with large beds, private bathrooms, and panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows, but also connects highlights such as Kanas in northern Xinjiang, Pamir in southern Xinjiang, and the Ili grasslands, letting you lie back and travel through Xinjiang’s four seasons. This article will unveil the mystery of this “land cruise” from three dimensions: carriage configuration, itinerary highlights, and pricing services.
🌄 【Why choose the New Oriental Express Xuelian No.?】🌄
Xinjiang is vast, with attractions often hundreds of kilometers apart. Traditional travel requires frequent bus transfers, which is tiring and easy to miss scenery along the way. The New Oriental Express Xuelian No., with its rhythm of “sightseeing by day, traveling by night,” combines transportation and accommodation into one, letting you cross the Tianshan Mountains in a comfortable carriage and truly experience “traveling a thousand miles a day, admiring the starry sky at night.”

All have large panoramic windows, letting you view snow mountains, grasslands, and lakes while lying down.
2️⃣ Professional service team:Each carriage is equipped with a dedicated butler providing 24-hour hot water, luggage assistance, and attraction commentary; the dining car serves meals with beef, lamb, fruits, and melons sourced locally—fresh and authentic.
3️⃣ In-depth itinerary design:Avoiding “skim-the-surface” tours, it selects core attractions like Kanas, Hemu, Sayram Lake, and Nalati Grassland, with ample time for photos, hiking, and experiencing ethnic cultures—even home visits to local families in Tashkurgan.
4️⃣ Convenience and comfort:The train goes directly to scenic areas, reducing transfers; carriages are equipped with oxygen devices to handle altitude sickness; the entire trip has no forced shopping, making it suitable for families, couples, and middle-aged and elderly travelers.
