🚂 What is it like to travel through Xinjiang by train?
In the vast and expansive land of Xinjiang, a travel method is quietly becoming the preferred choice for middle-aged, elderly, and family tourists—taking the ‘Kunlun’ tourist special train, a 14-day slow journey through northern and southern Xinjiang, crossing snow-capped mountains, lakes, grasslands, and ancient cities, with sleeper berths throughout and seamless connections to attractions. Unlike the hustle of traditional group tours, the ‘Kunlun’ train follows a rhythm of ‘the train moves with the people, and the scenery moves with the train,’ making the journey itself part of the landscape.
🌄 In-depth Introduction to Routes and Destinations
Launched by Urumqi in 2023, the ‘Kunlun’ tourist special train is positioned as a high-end, comfortable railway tourism product. The entire train consists of 8 sleeper carriages, blending modern facilities with Xinjiang cultural elements, with soft furnishings incorporating local aesthetic details such as Atlas silk patterns and wooden lattice windows. Each carriage is equipped with a desk, sofa, wardrobe, and washroom area (some room types have shared bathrooms), ensuring privacy and convenience during the journey.
The route runs through northern Xinjiang’s Ili River Valley, Sayram Lake, and Nalati Grassland; southern Xinjiang’s Kashgar Old City,白沙湖 (Baisha Lake), and Taxian’s Panlong Ancient Road; and eastern Xinjiang’s Turpan and Kuqa, achieving a ‘single line connecting north and south.’ The itinerary covers classic attractions like Heavenly Lake Tianshan, Kanas Three Bays,五彩滩 (Colorful Beach), and Lavender Manor, while also arranging special experiences such as fruit banquets, Tajik home visits, and sailing on the lake, balancing natural scenery with cultural interaction.
Note:Specific stops, attraction opening status, and train schedules may change due to railway adjustments, weather, or policy changes. After mutual agreement, the itinerary can be reasonably optimized, balancing effort and experience.
