🚂🐼 2026 Panda Special Train·Chengdu Edition 16-Day Southern and Northern Xinjiang Tour Special
Many travelers planning a trip to Xinjiang face a common dilemma: Southern Xinjiang is for culture, Northern Xinjiang is for scenery. To visit both in one trip, you often need to switch transportation frequently and pack luggage daily to change hotels, making the journey exhausting. The 2026 Panda Special Train Chengdu Edition perfectly solves this problem. The entire trip uses the special train as a mobile living space, eliminating the need to drag heavy luggage between stations. It also incorporates many leisure activities with Sichuan-Chongqing characteristics, allowing travelers to enjoy familiar hometown fun during the journey.
The entire route connects over ten core Xinjiang tourist areas, including Turpan, Kashgar, the Pamir Plateau, Kuqa, Bayanbulak, Nalati, Yining, Beitun, Hemu, Kanas, and Urumqi. The 16-day itinerary covers both the cultural landmarks of Southern Xinjiang and the natural beauty of Northern Xinjiang. All tour dates are scheduled from June to September, perfectly matching Xinjiang’s excellent summer and autumn travel season. The regular opening period of the Duku Highway also falls within this timeframe, so you can experience the unique scenery of this scenic road without specially arranging your schedule.
Core Tour Highlights
Southern Xinjiang Culture and Nature Section: The Flaming Mountain scenic area in Turpan now offers a one-ticket pass, eliminating the previous split-ticket issue and making the tour smoother. The Karez Well, a millennium-old water conservancy project, allows visitors to closely appreciate the wisdom of ancient people in diverting water in arid regions. Upon arriving in Kashgar, you can leisurely stroll through the ancient city streets, where there are many specialty restaurants and handicraft shops, allowing you to slowly experience the local atmosphere. In the Pamir Plateau section, the White Sand Mountain and White Sand Lake, as well as Karakul Lake, are adjacent to Muztagh Ata. The clear lakes contrast beautifully with the snow-capped mountains, making it easy to capture great photos. However, this area has a high altitude, so try to avoid strenuous activities during the tour, drink plenty of warm water to stay hydrated, and inform the accompanying staff immediately if you experience symptoms like dizziness or headaches.
Duku Highway Crossing Section: Due to climate and geological conditions, the Duku Highway is recommended to be open from June to October each year. All our tour dates fall within this regular opening period. The itinerary includes visits to the southern and middle sections of the Duku Highway. Along the way, you can see the red rock cliffs of the Tianshan Grand Canyon, the grassland and wetland landscape of Bayanbulak, and the alpine meadow scenery of Nalati. Crossing various landforms such as snow-capped mountains, canyons, grasslands, and forests, you can experience the landscape differences across different climate zones.

Northern Xinjiang Natural Scenery Section:The Liuxing Street in Yining retains its orderly street layout and features many specialty handicraft shops and casual cafes, perfect for a leisurely visit. The Tianshan Flower Sea scenic area blooms with flowers in summer and autumn, offering great photo opportunities. In 2026, Sayram Lake has also introduced several ticket discount policies for specific groups. Eligible visitors can inform customer service in advance and prepare the corresponding documents for the discount. Hemu and Kanas, as core tourist areas in the Altay region, have ample stay time arranged in this itinerary, along with tea breaks and aerial photography services, allowing you to create专属的旅途记忆. The Tianshan Tianchi scenic area in Urumqi, with its alpine lake contrasting with the surrounding snow-capped mountains, is also a very representative scenic spot.

💡 Travel Tips
The temperature difference between day and night in Xinjiang is significant. Even in summer, you need to bring a light jacket. Areas like the Pamir Plateau, the mountainous sections of the Duku Highway, and Kanas have lower temperatures, so you need to bring windproof and warm clothing. Sunscreen, sunglasses, and sun hats are also recommended to prepare in advance.
Xinjiang has a vast territory, and some road sections have long travel times. You can prepare items like a U-shaped pillow, portable snacks, and a power bank to enhance travel comfort.
The special train offers various special activities such as Sichuan Opera Face-Changing, Sichuan Mahjong Experience, and Lantern Riddle Contests. You can participate with fellow travelers during the journey to enrich your travel experience.
Please respect local customs and habits during the trip, travel civilly, and jointly maintain a good travel environment.
