👩💼 [Interview with itinerary planner] 👩💼
Wang Fei, manager of Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Agency, is a native of Xinjiang who has worked in the Xinjiang tourism industry for more than ten years, has traveled to every scenic spot north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, and is familiar with the full routes, road conditions and weather, and local customs of northern and southern Xinjiang.
“The most precious thing about this train is that it creates a space for cultural dialogue.” Pointing to the itinerary, Wang Fei explained, “For example, in the old city of Kashgar, we arrange for Sichuan tourists to teach local children to make dumplings, and children of all ethnic groups paint pandas together. This kind of interaction is warmer than simply visiting.”
As a certified high-end tour guide, Wang Fei led the team to polish the itinerary over 3 years:
Climate adaptation:Avoiding the peak period of mudslides on the Duku Highway in July
Cultural respect:All visits to folk culture sites are equipped with professional interpreters

🌠 [New proposition for cultural travel] 🌠
When the train passes through the Dabancheng windmill array, through the viewing window you can see wind turbines and snow mountains in the same frame; when Sichuan opera gongs and drums sound at the edge of the Taklamakan Desert, this shock of time-space dislocation is exactly the travel philosophy that “Chengdu号” wants to convey—true cultural integration is not about hurried check-ins, but about creating scenes where different civilizations naturally dialogue.
