Professional soundproofing technology effectively blocks noise during travel, creating a quiet resting space. Each room type is equipped with a separate wet-and-dry bathroom to meet daily hygiene needs. The 16-day route connects multiple core scenic areas in both North and South Xinjiang, covering the natural landscapes of the Altay region, the grasslands and lakes of Ili, the Duku Highway crossing the Tianshan Mountains, the cultural charm of Southern Xinjiang, and the unique heritage of Turpan.
