🚂 2026 Panda Special Train Chengdu No. 16-Day Northern and Southern Xinjiang Tour | Pack the flavors of Sichuan and Chongqing into a mobile observation carriage, slowly exploring 8,000 kilometers of Western Region scenery.
Currently, during the preparation period for the 2026 Xinjiang tourism peak season, many tourists are already planning their summer trips to Xinjiang. Compared to traditional group tours or self-driving, the Panda Special Train Chengdu No.’s ‘one route, multiple tours, travel by night, sightsee by day’ model not only eliminates the fatigue of daily luggage handling and long journeys but also allows you to experience exclusive activities with Sichuan characteristics during the trip. It covers the core scenic belts of northern and southern Xinjiang, suitable for tourists who want to deeply explore Xinjiang and pursue a comfortable travel experience.
According to public information from China State Railway Group, the Panda Special Train Chengdu No. is jointly built by relevant units. The entire train is equipped with guest rooms, leisure and entertainment areas, specialty dining cars, and other spaces, with dedicated service personnel providing 24-hour attentive service and a medical team accompanying the entire journey. Off-train tours adopt a small group format with professional guides, balancing comfort and experience. This 16-day itinerary starts from Chengdu/Lanzhou, heading west to Turpan, then visiting southern Xinjiang’s cultural landscapes, Yili’s grassland scenery, Altay’s primitive forest areas, and classic scenic spots around Urumqi, linking more than ten iconic attractions such as the Flaming Mountains, Kashgar Ancient City, Pamir Plateau, Duku Highway, Nalati Grassland, Sayram Lake, Kanas, and Tianchi Lake, covering most of Xinjiang’s representative summer sights.
From June to September, Xinjiang’s landscapes are at their best, with grasslands, lakes, and flower seas entering the viewing period. Turpan’s melons and fruits gradually ripen, the flowing water of Karez brings unique coolness, and the red rock body of the Flaming Mountains stands out under the sun. In Kashgar Ancient City, streets and alleys crisscross, and the aroma of specialty foods fills the streets. On the Pamir Plateau, the water surface of白沙湖 (White Sand Lake) is like a mirror, set against the distant Muztagh Ata Peak, exceptionally clear. From the southern to the middle section of the Duku Highway, you pass through canyons, grasslands, and forests, with landscapes at different altitudes appearing in turn. On the Nalati Grassland, wildflowers bloom in patches, and cattle and sheep leisurely graze on the slopes. The blue of Sayram Lake is especially bright in summer, with ripples forming as the wind blows across the lake. The river bends of Kanas weave through the forest, with light at different times of day presenting various colors on the water surface. The water of Tianchi Lake reflects the surrounding spruce and snow-capped mountains, making every casual photo full of atmosphere.
In 2026, many Xinjiang scenic spots have also introduced corresponding preferential policies. For example, tourists born in the Year of the Horse visiting Sayram Lake on their birthday can enjoy free admission with valid documents. Tianchi Lake, Pamir Tourist Area, etc., also have reduction policies for specific groups. Eligible tourists can inform staff before departure and enjoy corresponding benefits after document verification. The specific preferential rules are subject to the information announced by the scenic spots on the day.
