Tianfu Express Special Train Tour to Xinjiang 2026:Comprehensive Guide to the 18-Day In-Depth Exploration Journey from Chengdu
🌄 [Route Highlights:Mobile ‘Five-Star Viewing Platform’]
The newly upgraded ‘Tianfu Express’ special train for 2026, designed with the core concept of ‘slow travel in Xinjiang,’ transforms traditional train travel into a mobile vacation space integrating accommodation, dining, and sightseeing. The train features all soft-sleeper carriages, with each carriage recommended to have 3-4 private compartments. The largest compartment covers 13 square meters and is equipped with panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows, en-suite bathroom, and intelligent temperature control system, earning it the title of ‘five-star hotel traveling on the Silk Road.’
The train’s speed is strictly controlled between 60-80 km/h to ensure passengers can clearly enjoy the scenery outside the windows. Specially designed ‘sightseeing periods’: crossing the Tianshan Mountains from 7-9 am, traveling along the Ili River Valley from 6-8 pm, and stopping at major stations after 10 pm to balance sightseeing and rest needs. According to the latest 2026 railway department data, this special train is Xinjiang’s first tourist train adopting the ‘travel by day for sightseeing, stop by night for rest’ model, effectively solving the pain point of traditional train travel where ‘scenery is seen at night and sleep occurs during the day.’
