[Detailed Introduction to Itinerary or Destination]
Xinjiang, covering one-sixth of China’s land area, has been a hub of cultural exchange between East and West since ancient times. In 2026, with the upgrade of the tourist train, the “Anyi Express” will offer a more comfortable experience and a more reasonable pace, taking you deep into the Ili River Valley and Sayram Lake to experience the tenderness of the “Jiangnan beyond the Great Wall” and the grandeur of the Tianshan Mountains.
Ili, known as the “Granary of Xinjiang,” boasts lush green grasslands in summer, dotted with wildflowers and yurts of local people from various ethnic groups, with herds of cattle and sheep, creating a vivid pastoral scene.
