🚂 New Oriental Express Special Train | Registration, Ticketing, and Schedule Quick Reference Guide
— Slow travel along the Silk Road, an immersive Xinjiang journey sleeping with the scenery
I. Detailed Introduction to the New Oriental Express Special Train
The New Oriental Express “Snow Lotus” is a distinctive tourist travel special train in China focused on long-distance leisure and slow travel, designed for travelers who yearn for in-depth experiences and value journey quality. It is not an ordinary train, but a mobile light-luxury vacation space traveling across the vast Western Regions.
The train adopts the classic model of “running at night, sightseeing by day” — sleeping soundly in stable and comfortable compartments at night, arriving at the day’s destination in the early morning, leisurely sightseeing during the day, and boarding again in the evening to rest. Throughout the journey there is no need to frequently change hotels or repeatedly pack luggage, and it saves the hassle and waiting of inter-city transportation, truly achieving the leisurely rhythm of “the train moves with the scenery, people travel within a painting.”
In 2026, the New Oriental Express completed a major upgrade, launching the brand-new “Snow Lotus” train body, with flowing silk texture livery echoing the natural textures of Xinjiang’s mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas, integrating modern light-luxury aesthetics with Silk Road cultural heritage, creating a high-end residential-style travel experience combining accommodation, dining, entertainment, and sightseeing. Whether it is a family trip, traveling with friends, or slow travel for seniors, everyone can find their own rhythm on this journey.
