🚂 [Dahe Zhinan: A moving scenic route across North and South Xinjiang, unlocking a new way to explore Xinjiang in depth] 🌄👩💼 The route designer says:Manager Wang Fei’s “Xinjiang travel philosophy”
“Xinjiang’s beauty lies in the scenery, and even more in the stories along the way.” Wang Fei, manager of Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Agency, is a native Xinjiang local who has worked in the tourism industry for more than ten years and has traveled to every corner north and south of the Tianshan Mountains. The “Dahe Zhinan” route she designed covers classic attractions in North and South Xinjiang (such as the Flaming Mountains in Turpan, the old town of Kashgar, and the lakes and mountains of Kanas), adds lesser-known hidden gems such as the Duku Highway and the Pamir Plateau, and specially arranges cultural interaction projects such as visits to the homes of people of all ethnic groups and experiences at the Khorgos Port.
“Xinjiang’s attractions are scattered and the distances are long. If you take a bus the whole way, elderly people and children cannot handle it; if you only visit a few major attractions, you waste Xinjiang’s vastness,” Wang Fei said. “The biggest advantage of special train travel is the combination of movement and rest—deep sightseeing at attractions during the day and rest and entertainment on the special train at night. It makes full use of touring time while avoiding the fatigue of long-distance driving.” She especially reminds: “Xinjiang’s weather is changeable, with large temperature differences between morning and evening. The special train has 24-hour heating, and you can change clothes at any time, which is more considerate than camping or ordinary hotels.”

💡 Travel tips
Xinjiang has strong ultraviolet rays, so sunscreen, sunglasses, and a sun hat are needed; the temperature difference between day and night is large, so bring a windbreaker even in summer.
The special train provides 24-hour hot water, but space is limited, so light luggage is recommended.
Some attractions require advance reservations (such as Tianshan Tianchi and Kanas). The travel agency will handle them uniformly, so no personal action is needed.
Customs vary among ethnic groups. When visiting and making home visits, respect local habits (such as not taking photos impolitely and not commenting on folk culture).
“Xinjiang’s beauty needs to be savored slowly,” Manager Wang Fei said. “This special train is like a moving home, taking you across deserts, grasslands, snow mountains, and lakes, putting all four seasons of Xinjiang into the train window.” If you also want to “lie down and tour Xinjiang,” why not contact Manager Wang Fei and start a spontaneous North and South Xinjiang crossing journey! 🌄🚂
