🚞 2026 Dahezhinan Hao Southern and Northern Xinjiang 17-Day Tour:Take the special train to unlock the beautiful scenery on both sides of the Tianshan Mountains
Many friends planning to visit Xinjiang in 2026 will have similar concerns:Xinjiang is vast, with attractions often hundreds of kilometers apart. Self-driving requires extensive planning and road condition concerns, while regular bus tours involve daily rushing and hotel changes. Coordinating a trip that covers all core attractions in southern and northern Xinjiang while catching the Duku Highway’s opening period is even more challenging. The Dahezhinan Hao special train’s 17-day panoramic tour of southern and northern Xinjiang perfectly meets these needs—no need to plan routes or pack luggage daily, allowing you to easily explore the representative landscapes on both sides of the Tianshan Mountains.
🌟 Core Advantages and Destination Highlights of the Route

The train also features a multi-functional car with an audio-visual system, serving as a space for meetings, dining, board games, karaoke, and other leisure activities. When tired, you can return to your compartment to rest, and there’s a dedicated space for entertainment with companions. Additionally, the train is equipped with a dedicated dining car and chef team, ensuring meal quality during the journey—no need to rush to find restaurants or eat monotonous instant food.
Covering Core Attractions of Southern and Northern Xinjiang
This Duku version panoramic route covers almost all representative attractions in southern and northern Xinjiang: from Turpan’s Flaming Mountain, Karez Well, and Grape Valley—sites blending natural scenery and cultural heritage—to the Pamir Plateau’s Karakul Lake, Stone City, and Golden Grassland—high-altitude landscapes—as well as the Duku Highway’s Tianshan wonders, the grassland scenery of Nalati and Bayanbulak, the azure lake views of Sayram Lake, the forest and autumn colors of Kanas, and finally Urumqi’s Tianshan Tianchi and International Grand Bazaar. Without backtracking, this trip lets you experience the diverse landscapes of southern and northern Xinjiang in one go.
Tour Dates Aligned with Prime Travel Season
The 2026 tour dates run from May to September, covering Xinjiang’s peak tourism season: In May, temperatures rise, grasslands begin to green, and tourist numbers are relatively low, offering a more relaxed experience; June to August is summer, with lush pastures and blooming wildflowers. The Duku Highway is expected to open in mid-June 2026, so tours from June to September catch this window, allowing you to experience the unique landscape of ‘one day with four seasons, ten miles with different skies’ along this cross-Tianshan scenic road; September marks autumn, with forests and grasslands turning warm tones, making for better photo opportunities.
Based on 2026 Xinjiang travel tips, here are a few suggestions for those planning a trip:Some remote areas and mountainous regions in Xinjiang have poor signal coverage, so carry some cash for emergencies; keep valid ID documents on your person, not deep in your luggage, for easy checks; Xinjiang’s scenic spots are generally large, and walking 10,000 to 20,000 steps per attraction is common, so wear comfortable sports or hiking shoes, avoiding high heels; the local diet is mainly beef and mutton, so bring stomach medicine for potential discomfort, along with sunscreen and warm clothing—mountain areas have large temperature differences, so even in summer, bring a light jacket; respect the customs of all ethnic groups during travel to maintain a friendly atmosphere; if you plan to bring a drone, consult customer service in advance about flight regulations at specific attractions to avoid violations.
