🚂 2026 Xinjiang Southern and Northern Xinjiang Kunlun Special Train Booking Guide
Many tourists planning to visit Xinjiang share the same concern: the vast distance between Southern and Northern Xinjiang, with hundreds of kilometers between attractions, can be exhausting. They want to see grasslands, snow-capped mountains, lakes, ancient cities, and plateau scenery all at once without repeatedly packing luggage and changing transportation. The ‘Kunlun’ high-end tourist special train, developed by Urumqi, effectively solves these travel pain points. As a sleeper train designed specifically for a panoramic tour of Southern and Northern Xinjiang, tourists can hop on and off during the journey, leaving large luggage on the train without repeated handling, greatly enhancing travel comfort.
Route Feature Introduction
The 14-day Kunlun route covers core natural and cultural spots in Southern and Northern Xinjiang, catering to different tourist preferences:
The Southern Xinjiang section allows you to experience the long-standing Silk Road culture. Kuche Old City preserves traditional architectural styles, and the Qiuci song and dance performances carry profound historical memories. On the Pamir Plateau, Baisha Lake and Karakul Lake offer magnificent plateau scenery distinct from inland areas. In Kashgar Old City, you can enjoy a rich local life, with various specialty snacks and handicraft shops worth exploring slowly.
The Northern Xinjiang section gathers Xinjiang’s representative natural landscapes. The southern section of the Duku Highway offers diverse scenery along the way. The grasslands of Nalati and Kuerdening are covered with wildflowers from June to September. Sailimu Lake’s blue waters echo the distant snow-capped mountains. Hemu and Kanas villages combine with forests to create relaxing mountain scenery. There are also classic spots like Lavender Manor and Tianshan Tianchi. The entire journey avoids backtracking, allowing you to experience all the different styles of Southern and Northern Xinjiang.

🧳 Travel Tips
Documents:Valid ID must be carried at all times; identity verification is required for check-ins, accommodation, entry, and boarding in Xinjiang. For border areas like Taxkorgan County, a travel permit must be obtained in advance, which can be processed at the local police station in your registered residence or at a regular processing point in Xinjiang.
Clothing:Xinjiang has large temperature differences between day and night. Even in summer, bring light jackets, windbreakers, and other warm clothing. Areas like Bayanbulak, Kanas, and Taxkorgan County have lower temperatures in the morning and evening; bring appropriate warm gear based on your travel time.
Sun Protection:Xinjiang has long sunshine hours and high UV intensity. It is recommended to bring high-SPF sunscreen, sunglasses, sun hats, arm sleeves, and other sun protection items to avoid sunburn during prolonged outdoor activities.
Other Tips: Mobile signals may be unstable in some mountainous and remote scenic areas in Xinjiang; carry a small amount of cash for emergencies. Protect the ecological environment during travel; do not trample on grasslands or litter. When tasting local cuisine, be mindful of your stomach condition and carry common gastrointestinal medications. Avoid strenuous exercise when entering plateau areas to gradually adapt to the altitude and reduce discomfort. When buying local products, ask about prices in advance and choose stores with clear price tags.
