In the golden spring and summer season of 2027, the “Xiaoxiang” tourist train is launching an 18-day panoramic slow journey across Northern and Southern Xinjiang in a brand-new style of “mobile star-rated hotel + immersive cultural journey” for middle-aged, elderly, and family travelers.

I. Detailed Introduction to the “Xiaoxiang” Special Train: Turning the Train into a Destination, Making the Journey Itself the Scenery
The “Xiaoxiang” is a distinctive tourist travel train in China focused on long-distance leisure slow travel. It is jointly created by Hunan Tourism Development and Investment Group Co., Ltd. and China Railway Guangzhou Group Co., Ltd., and is the country’s first Hunan culture-themed tourist train. It is not a means of transportation in the traditional sense, but a mobile living space designed with the core concept of “the train is the destination.”
The special train travels about 15,000 kilometers in total, running from east to west and covering more than 80% of the 5A-level core scenic areas in Northern and Southern Xinjiang. It adopts the classic rail travel model of “running at night, sightseeing during the day” — sleeping soundly on the smoothly running train at night, arriving at the destination in the morning and directly starting sightseeing, saving the hassle and fatigue of frequently changing accommodation, repeatedly packing luggage, and transferring between cities. It is especially suitable for middle-aged and elderly tourists and family groups who prefer in-depth, relaxed pacing.
The carriages deeply integrate Hunan cultural heritage and Silk Road charm, with Xiang embroidery elements, local cuisine, and cultural salons throughout the journey, creating a “mobile cultural living room running on the railway.” This is not recommended as merely a sightseeing trip, but as an immersive cultural roaming experience.
