🚂 Unlock the magnificent scenery｜16-day trip on the Comfortable Panda Special Train departing from Chengdu, an immersive journey slowly traversing northern and southern Xinjiang
In the fast-paced era of travel, a journey that truly allows people to ‘slow down’ is especially precious. In 2026, the ‘Comfortable’ Panda Special Train, with its comfortable and relaxed style, takes travelers from Chengdu or Lanzhou, crossing the Hexi Corridor and delving deep into the heart of Xinjiang. Over 16 days, it connects classic attractions like Tianchi Lake on Tianshan Mountain, Kanas Lake, Sayram Lake, Nalati Grassland, Kashgar Old City, and Turpan Oasis. This is not a superficial check-in tour, but a deep, moving exploration—the train is the hotel, and the scenery is just outside the window.
🌄 Destination Highlights:Panoramic Experience of Xinjiang’s Diverse Landscapes
