🚂 Traveling Xinjiang by Special Train, Slowly Enjoying a 17-Day Panoramic Tour of Southern and Northern Xinjiang — Detailed Guide to the ‘Dahezhinan’ Tour Train from Zhengzhou
Want to see snow-capped mountains, grasslands, lakes, and ancient cities all at once, without having to move luggage or rush for buses every day? In 2026, the ‘Dahezhinan’ special tour train departs from Zhengzhou, adopting a ‘mobile hotel + cultural carriage + exclusive service’ model to comfortably take you through the core areas of Southern and Northern Xinjiang. The entire journey lasts 17 days, covering classic destinations like Turpan, Kashgar, the Pamir Plateau, the Duku Highway, Nalati, Sayram Lake, Kanas, and Hemu. With a relaxed pace and stable accommodation, it’s especially suitable for family trips, group travel, or travelers who prefer a leisurely pace.
🌄 Detailed Route and Destination Introduction
The ‘Dahezhinan’ tour train connects three major regions: Eastern Xinjiang, Southern Xinjiang, and Northern Xinjiang. The itinerary is designed to balance natural scenery and cultural experiences:
Turpan Section:Explore the thousand-year-old Karez irrigation system, climb the Flaming Mountain from ‘Journey to the West,’ and stroll under the grape trellises of Grape Valley. In May, the weather is pleasant, and fruits are just ripening.
Kashgar and the Pamir Plateau:Walk into the old city of Kashgar to experience the lively streets and alleys, head to the Pamir Plateau to visit Karakul Lake (with the reflection of Muztagh Ata), the Stone City ruins, and the Golden Grassland Wetland. Participate in family visits with various ethnic groups to experience local life.
Highlights of the Duku Highway: The Duku Highway is expected to fully open in mid-June 2026. Tours departing on June 17 and later can travel the southern and middle sections, passing through the Tianshan Secret Grand Canyon, Bayanbulak Grassland (with the stunning sunset over the Nine Bends and Eighteen Turns), and Nalati Valley Grassland (surrounded by spruce trees and snow-capped peaks).
Yili and Northern Xinjiang Lake Areas: Visit the Liuxing Street artistic district in Yining, the border scenery of Horgos Port, and stop at Sayram Lake — in summer, wildflowers bloom by the lake, and the water is as clear as a mirror. Then head deep into the Altay region to explore Kanas Lake (with its blue-green hues changing with the light), Hemu Village (a wooden house village shrouded in morning mist), and the colorful Yadan landform of Wucaitan.
Highlights Before Return:Enjoy the lake and mountain views of Tianchi Lake at Tianshan in Urumqi, and shop for special souvenirs at the International Grand Bazaar.
The entire itinerary adopts a ‘travel by night, explore by day’ model to reduce travel fatigue, with ample time at each scenic spot, making it ideal for travelers who enjoy deep and leisurely tours.
