🌄 Sunset Red Special Train · Kunlun: 14-day panoramic slow tour of northern and southern Xinjiang, starting a comfortable Xinjiang journey for silver-haired travelers.
In the vast expanse of Xinjiang, if you want a trip that covers both the snowy mountains and lakes of northern Xinjiang and the ancient cultural cities of southern Xinjiang, while avoiding frequent transfers and rushing, the ‘tourist train’ is becoming an increasingly popular choice. In 2026, the ‘Kunlun’ tourist train continues with its ‘moving home’ model, offering an in-depth, leisurely travel experience for tourists who value pace and comfort. It is especially suitable for middle-aged and elderly friends—no need to drag luggage between hotels, enjoy sightseeing during the day, and sleep soundly on the train at night, truly achieving ‘the train moves with you, the scenery shifts with the train.’
🌍 Detailed Route and Destination Introduction
The ‘Kunlun’ was built in Urumqi in 2023. It is a high-end air-conditioned tourist train that integrates transportation, accommodation, and sightseeing. The route spans the Tianshan Mountains, connecting the oasis culture of Turpan, the Kuchean legacy of Kucha, the ancient Silk Road city of Kashgar, the magnificent lakes of the Pamir Plateau, the grassland and flower seas of the Ili River Valley, and the forest secrets of the Altai region.
The itinerary covers Xinjiang’s most representative natural and cultural landscapes: from the scorching Flaming Mountains to the majestic Tianshan Secret Grand Canyon, from the clear reflections of Baisha Lake to the morning mist and cooking smoke of Hemu Village, and to Sayram Lake’s ‘Last Tear of the Atlantic’… Each stop is carefully arranged, with daily sightseeing time controlled at 4–6 hours, and rest time reserved at noon. The pace is relaxed, suitable for middle-aged and elderly groups.
It is particularly worth mentioning that the train has a fixed formation throughout the journey, and luggage travels with the train. You can start sightseeing as soon as you arrive, saving the trouble of repeatedly moving luggage. The carriages are decorated with Xinjiang elements to create a warm travel atmosphere.
