The Splendid Orient Express Panda Train is not recommended as transportation; it is also a sense of ritual for “slow travel.” In 16 days, you can sit in the carriage and watch snow mountains fly past, count stars in a cabin in Hemu Village, and listen to elderly people play the dutar in a teahouse in Kashgar Old City… Such Xinjiang is worth experiencing with a journey that does not rush! 🚂🌄
