🚂 New travel options for Xinjiang in 2026:Xiaoxiang Special Train 18-Day Panoramic Tour
Many tourists planning to visit Xinjiang in 2026 worry about unfamiliar self-driving routes, traffic restrictions on popular sections, and difficulty booking accommodation along the way. The Xiaoxiang special train offers a worry-free travel option, with sleeper berths throughout the journey combined with local boutique hotels, eliminating the need to repeatedly pack luggage and transfer, while covering the core scenic areas of Eastern, Northern, and Southern Xinjiang.

In 2026, the Grand Sea Road scenic area offers free admission for the entire year to visitors born in the Year of the Horse. Eligible travelers can inform staff before departure and enjoy the corresponding policy by presenting valid identification upon entry. The yardang landforms in the scenic area, sculpted by wind erosion over millions of years, feature diverse shapes and are ideal for capturing stunning landscape photos.
✅ Northern Xinjiang Ecology and Folk Culture Experience:The route covers multiple famous attractions such as Heavenly Lake Tianshan, Kanas, Hemu, Colorful Beach, Sayram Lake, Nalati Grassland, and Bayinbuluke Grassland. According to the latest 2026 travel tips for Heavenly Lake Tianshan, there is no so-called ‘deep experience fee’ in the scenic area. Official tickets can be purchased directly through channels.

After May, Nalati Grassland gradually enters the season of green grass, with wildflowers blooming along the way.
