Splendid Tianfu:2027 Panoramic North and South Xinjiang Mobile “Five-Star Home” 🚂✨
Train Introduction:Redefining the “high quality” of high-end tourist special trains
As the world’s first quality tourist train themed around “Shu Brocade and Song Elegance,” Splendid Tianfu has quickly become popular since its maiden voyage in 2025 with its positioning as a “mobile five-star hotel.” The entire train has 18 carriages and recommends 92 seats, equivalent to an average recommended service of 5-6 passengers per carriage, with privacy and comfort far exceeding ordinary trains. Its design inspiration comes from the splendor of Shu brocade and the elegance of Song rhyme. The carriages extensively use elements such as silk, wood carvings, and celadon, paired with warm-toned lighting, creating a cultural immersion of “a scene at every step.”
The train is equipped with bathrooms, 24-hour hot water, underfloor heating systems, and intelligent temperature control, so even in the severe winter of northern Xinjiang it strives to be as warm as spring. Even more noteworthy is that each carriage has a dedicated butler, providing full-process services such as luggage handling, customized dining, and itinerary reminders, truly realizing the experience of “vacation begins on board.”
