Detailed introduction to the route or destination
The New Oriental Express Snow Lotus high-end special train is a “star product” of Xinjiang railway tourism. With the design concept of “the train moves with the scenery, people travel within a painting,” it connects core Xinjiang tourist destinations such as Urumqi, Kanas, Ili, and Kashgar. The train features customized carriage design and is divided into two cabin classes: “Prestige Gold Diamond” and “Xiyue Gold Diamond.” Each carriage is equipped with bathrooms, large viewing windows, constant-temperature air conditioning, and intelligent control systems, meeting high-end travelers’ needs for privacy and comfort.
The train itinerary covers Xinjiang’s geographical pattern of “three mountains and two basins.” Along the way, passengers can view diverse landforms such as the Tianshan snow peaks, the Gobi of the Junggar Basin, the grasslands of the Ili River Valley, and the edge of the Taklamakan Desert. In spring (April-May), you can enjoy the pink flower seas of the Ili Apricot Blossom Valley; in summer (June-August), it is suitable for escaping the heat and stargazing; in autumn (September-October), the forests of Kanas are ablaze with color; and in winter (November-March), you can experience the blue ice wonder of Sayram Lake. Currently (2027), the train operator is Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Agency. By optimizing route design, it has upgraded traditional “cursory sightseeing” tourism into a “deep experience + cultural immersion” model, for example arranging exclusive activities such as visits to the homes of people of various ethnic groups and intangible cultural heritage handmade craft experiences in Kashgar Old City.
