👩💼 Route designer says
Manager Wang Fei of Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Agency (a native Xinjiang local who has worked in the tourism industry for 12 years):
“The original design purpose of the Xiaoxiang Hao was to solve two major pain points of Xinjiang tourism:first, the time consumed by long-distance transportation; second, the scattered attractions. The special train travels at night to save time and stops at core scenic areas during the day, so tourists do not need to frequently move luggage. We specially arranged in-depth experiences such as home visits with people of all ethnic groups and Twelve Muqam intangible cultural heritage performances to avoid superficial sightseeing. As a no-consumption itinerary group, no shopping stores are arranged throughout the trip. The guide will share Xinjiang’s historical stories and anti-scam tips, allowing tourists not only to see the scenery but also to understand Xinjiang.”
