In 2026, Xinjiang tourism ushers in a brand-new upgrade — the “Jinxiu Tianfu” Panda Special Train is built to the standard of a “mobile five-star hotel,” connecting the entry routes into Xinjiang from Chengdu/Lanzhou to Urumqi, and deeply covering Kanas and Sayram Lake in northern Xinjiang as well as Kashgar and the Pamir Plateau in southern Xinjiang. The 16-day itinerary spans 3,000 kilometers and covers five major landforms: snow-capped mountains, grasslands, lakes, canyons, and ancient cities. Daily driving time is kept within 4 hours, paired with exclusive observation cars and local cultural experiences. It is suitable for family trips, photography enthusiasts, and middle-aged and elderly groups seeking quality.

👩💼 [Itinerary planner’s note]
“The design logic of this route is ‘northern Xinjiang first, southern Xinjiang later,’ using nighttime train travel to save daytime transportation time. For example, on the 6-hour drive from Kanas to Beitun, tourists rest in their compartments and directly visit the Three Bays the next morning, avoiding the peak crowds of tour groups.” — Wang Fei, manager of Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Agency
