[New Southern Train Xiaoxiang Train] 18-Day In-Depth Panorama Tour of North and South Xinjiang:A moving scenic route across the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains✨
🌄 Route overview:Tour Xinjiang by train and unlock the finest scenery of North and South Xinjiang
Xinjiang is vast, and the scenery of North and South Xinjiang differs significantly. If you want to deeply visit the core attractions of North and South Xinjiang within 18 days, traditional self-driving or bus tours are often difficult to achieve due to long distances and complicated transportation connections. As a tourism special train designed specifically for the panorama of North and South Xinjiang, the “New Southern Train Xiaoxiang Train” adopts a linked model of “train + local vehicles,” visiting core attractions during the day and moving by special train at night. This saves time and avoids the fatigue of long-distance driving, making it especially suitable for middle-aged and elderly tourists, family trips, and travelers seeking a comfortable experience.
The 2027 departure schedule has been announced (subject to the dispatch order of China Railway Group):
Three departure dates—May 10, May 30, and June 22—cover the excellent travel season in Xinjiang at the turn of spring and summer, when grasslands turn green, apricot blossoms bloom, and snow mountains are clear. This is the period when the scenery of North and South Xinjiang is the richest.

The Xiaoxiang Train special train offers two cabin categories: “Xiaoxiang Mansion” (2-person room with private bathroom) and “Zhengxiang Courtyard” (4-person room with shared bathroom).
