🚂 What is it like to travel slowly through Xinjiang by train?
In 2026, the ‘Tianshan’ tour train continues its model of ‘travel by day, sleep by night, one berth all the way,’ connecting the lakes and mountains of Northern Xinjiang with the cultural streets of Southern Xinjiang. Unlike traditional group tours with frequent vehicle changes and luggage handling, this special train makes the journey itself part of the scenery—the carriage is a moving home, and outside the window is a flowing Xinjiang.
🌄 Route Highlights:A panoramic journey spanning Northern and Southern Xinjiang
The ‘Tianshan’ tour train itinerary covers classic destinations such as Tianshan Tianchi, Kanas, Hemu, Sayram Lake, Nalati Grassland, Bayanbulak, Pamir Plateau, Kashgar Old City, and Flaming Mountain, balancing natural wonders with urban landscapes. The train features air-conditioned carriages, dining cars, sleeper compartments, and comfortable common areas. It runs smoothly at night for deep daytime exploration, with a relaxed pace suitable for travelers seeking easy travel and reduced hassle.
Accommodation includes star-rated hotels in Urumqi, comfortable standard rooms in Jiadengyu and Bayin Town, and fixed berths on the special train, eliminating the need to change beds daily. Meals typically follow an 8-dish-1-soup standard, with special local dishes like big plate chicken, grilled fish, and fruit feasts, balancing taste and nutrition.
Note that due to uncontrollable factors such as weather, traffic, and scenic area policies, the travel agency may negotiate reasonable changes to the itinerary order or accommodation locations while ensuring core attractions.
