🏔️ Since the beginning of spring in 2026, inquiries about Xinjiang tourism have been rising steadily. Many tourists planning to visit Xinjiang this year have expressed a desire to cover the core attractions of both northern and southern Xinjiang in one trip, but without the hassle of frequent long-distance bus transfers and daily packing and hotel changes. As a result, special train tour products have attracted significant attention. The Tianshan No. 13-Day Panoramic Tour, a special train product connecting over a dozen famous attractions in northern and southern Xinjiang, has seen a notable increase in inquiries recently. Below is a detailed overview of this product for your reference and selection.
Detailed Introduction to the Route and Destinations
The route design of the Tianshan No. 13-Day Panoramic Tour covers multiple geographical units, including the Altai Mountains and Ili River Valley in northern Xinjiang, as well as the Pamir Plateau, Tarim Basin surroundings, and Turpan Basin in southern Xinjiang. This allows tourists to see diverse landscapes such as snow-capped mountains, lakes, grasslands, canyons, Gobi deserts, plateaus, and ancient cultural towns within 13 days, without needing to split the northern and southern Xinjiang itineraries, saving time and transportation costs of multiple trips to Xinjiang.
The Tianshan Tianchi Scenic Area included in the itinerary has a ticket price of 95 RMB per person during the 2026 peak season (April 1 to October 31), with a two-day ticket policy allowing entry on the day of ticket validation and the following day. The surrounding snow-capped mountains, spruce trees, and lake surface complement each other, and after spring, wildflowers gradually bloom along the shore, creating a rich layering of scenery.
The Kanas and Hemu scenic areas are located in the Altay region, with an altitude of around 2000 meters, generally not causing altitude sickness. The temperature difference between morning and evening is significant. Wooden boardwalks connect various viewpoints within the scenic areas. The wooden houses in Hemu Village are scattered across the valley, and climbing to a high point in the early morning offers views of cooking smoke rising through the forest at sunrise, perfect for photography.
Sayram Lake, at an altitude of 2071 meters, is a high-altitude alpine lake in Xinjiang. From June to August, wildflowers bloom along the lakeshore. There are multiple viewing platforms along the lake, where you can see swans resting on the water. The nearby Guozigou Bridge is also a distinctive architectural landmark. Nalati Grassland, at an altitude of 2200 meters, features mostly gentle wooden boardwalks in the core area, and visitors with limited stamina can opt for shuttle bus tours. The grassland is lush and green, with snow-capped mountains in the distance, offering a visually pleasing experience.
In the latter part of the itinerary, the Pamir Plateau area includes attractions like Karakul Lake, Stone City, and Golden Grassland. The high-altitude lake is backed by snow-capped mountains, and the Golden Grassland offers great photo opportunities in the soft evening light. The Yardang landforms of Wensu Grand Canyon are uniquely shaped, while Turpan’s Flaming Mountain and Karez Well allow visitors to experience the local climate and ancient water conservancy engineering wisdom.
Additionally, please note that the itinerary involves border areas such as the Pamir Plateau, requiring a travel permit in advance. You can apply for it yourself or seek assistance from the travel agency staff after registration. Please carry valid identification documents with you during the trip, as they are needed for hotel check-ins and scenic area entries.

✨ Travel Tips
Carry valid identification documents with you. The itinerary involves border areas requiring a travel permit, so it is recommended to prepare in advance. For any questions about obtaining the permit, consult the travel agency staff.
Xinjiang has significant temperature differences between day and night. For travel in May-June and September-October, it is advisable to bring a light down jacket. For daily outings, bring a windbreaker and long pants. UV levels are high, so prepare SPF50+ sunscreen, a sun hat, and sunglasses. The climate is dry, so bring moisturizing skincare products and a portable water bottle to stay hydrated.
Signal strength can be weak in scenic areas like Kanas and Hemu. Inform family and friends of your itinerary in advance to avoid concerns due to communication difficulties.
During peak season, scenic areas like Sayram Lake and Nalati can be crowded. Visit core viewpoints at off-peak times. Choose restaurants with clear pricing for meals within the scenic areas.
There are many wooden boardwalks in the scenic areas, which can be slippery after rain or snow. Watch your step and wear comfortable sports shoes for easier travel.
Local cuisine is mainly beef and mutton. Tourists with sensitive stomachs may bring common gastrointestinal medications to avoid discomfort affecting the travel experience.
