🌄 Slow Travel Through Xinjiang by Train｜2026 New Experience Guide for the Kunlun Tour Train
If you’ve hesitated to visit Xinjiang due to its vast territory and scattered attractions, and want to avoid the hassle of frequently changing hotels, dragging luggage, and long bus rides, the ‘Kunlun’ tour train might be the travel method you’ve been waiting for. This high-end tourist train, launched by Urumqi in 2023, has now entered regular operation. In 2026, it continues with the core concept of a ‘mobile comfortable living space,’ connecting the best landscapes of southern and northern Xinjiang, offering a relaxed, well-serviced one-stop deep experience.
📍 Detailed Introduction to Routes or Destinations
The Kunlun Tour Train traverses the eastern, southern, and northern regions of Xinjiang, covering diverse landscapes such as snow-capped mountains, lakes, grasslands, canyons, deserts, ancient cities, and plateau wetlands. The journey starts from the Flaming Mountains in Turpan, passes through the red canyons of Kuqa, reaches the白沙湖 and Karakul Lake on the Pamir Plateau, then goes through Kashgar Old City and the Panlong Ancient Road, heading north to the lavender gardens of the Ili River Valley and Sayram Lake, finally delving into Hemu Village and Kanas Lake in the Altay region. Along the route, it not only includes natural wonders like the Tianshan Grand Canyon, Nalati Sky Grassland, and Bayinbuluke Nine Bends and Eighteen Turns but also incorporates cultural experiences such as Qiuci dance performances, Tuvan home visits, and ethnic handicraft interactions.
The train adopts a ‘travel by night, tour by day’ model, converting hundreds of kilometers of travel time into nighttime rest, focusing on sightseeing during the day, effectively avoiding ‘rushed tourism.’ The carriages feature constant temperature control, silent track technology, and high-altitude oxygen supply equipment to ensure a smooth and comfortable journey. The soft furnishings incorporate ethnic folk elements, creating a living atmosphere that is both modern and regionally distinctive.
