🚂 2027 New Oriental Express Xinjiang Luxury Special Train:A journey through a moving palace across the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains
As the train slowly passes beneath the Tianshan Mountains, outside the window are continuous snow peaks and azure lakes, while inside the carriage are private compartments laid with velvet bedding, exquisite meals, and thoughtful service—this is not a movie scene, but the real experience of the 2027 “New Oriental” luxury tourist special train. As one of the few high-end railway travel products in China, the New Oriental Express, with its fixed carriages throughout the journey, private compartments, butler-style service, and in-depth loop route design, has become a unique way to explore the vast land of Xinjiang.
🌄 Route highlights:A panoramic journey spanning northern and southern Xinjiang at once
This 14-day itinerary crosses the eastern and western ends of Xinjiang, starting from Urumqi, going deep into the Kanas secret realm via the Altay region, then heading south along the Ili River Valley, crossing the Duku Highway, finally arriving at Kashgar on the eastern edge of the Pamir Plateau, and then returning to Turpan and Urumqi. The entire journey covers alpine lakes (Tianshan Tianchi, Sayram Lake), grasslands and wetlands (Nalati, Bayanbulak), Danxia canyons (Tianshan Secret Grand Canyon), desert oases (Kashgar Old City), and cultural historic sites (Jiaohe Ancient City, Gaotai Residences), with an extremely large geographical span and rich types of landscapes.
It is particularly worth mentioning that the itinerary includes multiple scenic corridors: such as the Ahe Highway, known as “China’s most beautiful rural road,” the southern section of the Duku Highway connecting northern and southern Xinjiang, and the route along Baisha Lake leading to Taxkorgan County. These road sections have good traffic conditions in summer, with open views along the way, making them golden passages for photography and sightseeing.
The train itself is also a major highlight. “New Oriental” uses customized carriage formations, with each carriage recommended to have 3 to 4 compartments, equipped with bathrooms, constant-temperature air conditioning, high-end bedding, and 24-hour hot water. Public areas include a viewing carriage, dining room, and rest area. Meals are prepared on board by a professional chef team, integrating local ingredients with Chinese cooking, balancing nutrition and taste.
Please note that due to seasonal climate and scenic area management policies, the specific tour order or length of stay may be reasonably changed according to actual conditions to ensure the quality of the itinerary and experience.
