🚂 Where to book the ‘Splendid Tianfu’ Panda Special Train and what is the price? — A mobile cultural journey blending Bashu aesthetics and Western Region scenery
On the vast and expansive land of Xinjiang, snow-capped mountains, lakes, grasslands, and canyons intertwine into a magnificent picture; while on the speeding train, the elegance of Song Dynasty aesthetics and Shu brocade patterns quietly unfold in every inch of the carriage. The newly upgraded ‘Splendid Tianfu’ Panda Tourism Special Train in 2026, as a ‘mobile Eastern aesthetic space,’ offers travelers a deep travel experience with a relaxed pace, meticulous service, and rich experiences.
This 16-day itinerary spans northern and southern Xinjiang, starting from Urumqi, passing through Tianchi Lake of Tianshan Mountains, Hemu, Kanas, Sayram Lake, Nalati, Kuqa, Kashgar, Turpan, and finally returning to Chengdu or Lanzhou. Unlike the tight pace of traditional group tours, the ‘Splendid Tianfu’ adopts a ‘travel by day, rest by night’ mode, visiting key attractions during the day and sleeping in the train compartment at night, truly achieving ‘lying down to see Xinjiang.’
📍 Introduction to Route and Destination Highlights
The ‘Splendid Tianfu’ connects Xinjiang’s most representative natural and cultural landscapes. The itinerary covers the Kanas wonderland in northern Xinjiang, the morning mist of Hemu, the blue sky and clear water of Tianchi Lake of Tianshan Mountains, and also delves into the ancient city of Kashgar,白沙湖 (White Sand Lake), and the foot of Muztagh Peak in southern Xinjiang. It also traverses the middle and southern sections of the Duku Highway (applicable for May to September departures), known as one of China’s most beautiful highways. Due to climate reasons, the October departure cancels the Duku section but still retains core landscape experiences.
The train design is inspired by Song Dynasty aesthetics and Bashu culture. The entire train is recommended to have 92 seats, with a service ratio as high as 1:0.5, creating a highly private and quiet travel atmosphere. The carriages feature reading corners, viewing galleries, tea areas, and activities such as cocktail parties, intangible cultural heritage handicrafts, and Silk Road-themed concerts, making the journey not just about ‘seeing’ but about ‘immersion.’
