🌄 Itinerary Highlights:Redefining the ‘Mobile Castle’ of Xinjiang Travel
Since its operation in 2023, the Kunlun Tourist Special Train has become a representative of high-end tourist trains with its ‘all-sleeper design + Xinjiang folk soft furnishings.’ According to the latest data in 2026, all 8 cars of the train feature customized layouts. The soft sleeper cars are equipped with washrooms, desks, wardrobes, and single sofas, while the hard sleeper cars have optimized storage space and sound insulation. The interior decorations incorporate traditional craft elements from various ethnic groups, such as Atlas silk and wood carvings. Even the curtain patterns are derived from Xinjiang’s intangible cultural heritage embroidery, making it a ‘mobile cultural exhibition hall.’
The train’s biggest advantage lies in its ‘stop during the day, travel at night’ itinerary design—allowing for in-depth exploration of attractions during the day and traveling to the next destination by train at night, saving time and avoiding fatigue from long-distance travel. After the 2026 route upgrade, a new ‘train fruit feast’ service has been added, allowing passengers to enjoy seasonal fresh fruits such as Turpan grapes and Korla pears during the journey, accompanied by professional guides sharing stories about Xinjiang’s fruit culture.
