On the vast map of Xinjiang, the journey from Korla to Kashgar is a classic route that crosses the Tarim Basin, traverses the remaining ranges of the Tianshan Mountains, and goes deep into the Pamir Plateau.

In 2027, as tourism infrastructure in Southern Xinjiang continues to improve, the service details of this route are also quietly upgrading.

🌄 Friendly Reminders
Southern Xinjiang is vast, with large daytime temperature differences and strong ultraviolet rays. It is recommended to bring sun protection gear, moisturizing products, and warm jackets. Some scenic areas require valid identification for entry, so please carry it with you. In addition, although the Duku Highway is not on the main route of this itinerary, if you plan to transfer from Northern Xinjiang, please note that it is generally recommended to be open in stages between June and October each year. For specific 2027 access conditions, please refer to announcements from traffic management authorities.
A journey to Southern Xinjiang is not only a geographical crossing but also a new understanding of the rhythm of time. Sitting in a 15-seat minibus, outside the window are flowing deserts and snow mountains, while inside is controllable comfort and freedom—this travel style between independent travel and group tours may be the new answer for slow travel in the Western Regions. For specific itinerary details, remaining availability, and price confirmation, it is recommended to communicate with the travel agency in advance to make full preparations.
