I. Detailed Introduction to the Jinxiu Tianfu Special Train
The Jinxiu Tianfu Special Train is a distinctive long-distance leisure travel train in China, centered on the concept of “residential-style” experience, designed for travelers seeking comfort, ease, and deep cultural immersion. The train adopts the classic model of “traveling by night, sightseeing by day,” allowing passengers to transfer between cities while sleeping and spend their days fully immersed in the scenery and culture of their destinations — without the need to frequently change hotels, repeatedly pack luggage, or rush between transport hubs.
The route spans the most scenic areas of both northern and southern Xinjiang, departing from Urumqi and passing through Tianchi (Heavenly Lake) of the Tianshan Mountains, Hemu, Kanas, Sayram Lake, Nalati Grassland, Duku Highway, and the ancient city of Kashgar, before reaching the Flaming Mountains in Turpan and finally returning to Chengdu or Lanzhou. It connects diverse landscapes and cultural sites including snow-capped mountains, lakes, grasslands, canyons, desert oases, and thousand-year-old ancient cities. The itinerary maintains a relaxed pace with well-highlighted daily arrangements, reserving ample time for sightseeing, photography, and free activities — truly realizing the ideal of slow travel with “stop as you go, stay as you wish.”
