If you want to deeply experience the vastness and diversity of Xinjiang but are troubled by the fatigue of long journeys, the Tianshan Train is the tailor-made answer for ‘lazy travelers.’ As one of the few ‘residential-style’ tourist trains in China, it operates on a ‘night travel, day sightseeing’ model, connecting the snowy mountains and grasslands of northern Xinjiang with the deserts and poplar forests of southern Xinjiang, allowing tourists to complete a grand loop of northern and southern Xinjiang in a comfortable mobile space.
