[Luxury Special Train “Chengdu号”:A new experience of panoramic roaming across North and South Xinjiang]
🚂 In-depth analysis of the route or destination:The “moving scenery gallery” of North and South Xinjiang
In 2026, the popularity of Xinjiang tourism continues to rise, and the “Chengdu号” luxury special train, with its unique design of “crossing North and South Xinjiang on one train,” has become a popular choice for in-depth travel enthusiasts. With the concept of a “moving scenery gallery,” this special train deeply integrates Sichuan opera culture, Xinjiang’s natural scenery, and cultural experiences. The itinerary covers core attractions in North and South Xinjiang such as Turpan, Kashgar, the Pamir Plateau, the Duku Highway, Sayram Lake, and Kanas. Comfortable vehicles with 7-55 seats are used throughout, with professional guides and onboard butlers, allowing tourists to fully appreciate Xinjiang’s magnificence and diversity within 16 days.
The “luxury” of the special train is not recommended to be reflected only in hardware facilities; it also incorporates rich cultural experiences. For example, the carriages are equipped with a Sichuan opera face-changing performance area and a panda-themed interactive corner, and fun activities such as “lantern riddle guessing” and “Werewolves of Millers Hollow” are even arranged during the journey, filling long-distance travel with laughter and joy. In addition, the special train has specially designed a “Sichuan mahjong experience area,” where tourists can enjoy the scenery outside the window while playing cards with fellow travelers and experiencing the “comfortable” Sichuan-style leisure.
