🌄 【Discovering the New Oriental Express:A high-end journey through Northern Xinjiang】🌄
🚂 Detailed introduction to the route or destination
When traditional train travel meets high-end vacationing, the New Oriental Express redefines in-depth Xinjiang travel with the standard of a “moving five-star hotel.” This charter train departs from Urumqi and connects premium attractions of Northern Xinjiang such as Koktokay, Kanas, Sayram Lake, and the Duku Highway. The entire journey uses fully enclosed air-conditioned carriages equipped with large viewing windows, bathrooms, 24-hour hot water, and butler service. The carriages include Golden Diamond carriages (2 people per compartment) and Luxury carriages (4 people per compartment), using shock-absorption and noise-reduction technology to maximize travel comfort.
According to the latest operating information for 2027, the charter train is recommended to operate in summer (April to September), avoiding the severe winter cold and striving to let tourists fully experience the excellent viewing periods for grasslands and lakes. The train’s daily mileage is controlled at 200-300 kilometers to avoid long-distance rushing and leave ample time for in-depth sightseeing at destinations. For example, in the Kanas scenic area, tourists can stay in characteristic wooden cabins within the scenic area and the next morning exclusively enjoy the beauty of the Three Bays in the morning mist—an experience ordinary tour groups find hard to achieve.
