🚂 Slow travel, deep experience:Anyi Special Train takes you to see the mountains and rivers of Xinjiang
In today’s fast-paced world, more and more travelers are longing for a ‘slow down’ journey—no need to rush between attractions, no need to race against time, just open the window and watch the snow-capped mountains and lakes flow slowly with the train. In 2026, the Panda Special Train·Anyi will connect the autumn colors of Northern Xinjiang, the grasslands of Yili, the Pamir Plateau, and the Turpan Oasis with a 15-day, 16-night itinerary around Xinjiang, making the journey itself part of the scenery. This train is not just a means of transportation but a moving resort hotel, equipped with bathrooms, panoramic windows, and full catering services, suitable for families, friends, or senior groups traveling together.
📍 Route highlights:A journey across four major geographical units of Xinjiang
The route design of Anyi covers the most representative natural and cultural landscapes of Xinjiang: starting from Urumqi, first arriving at Tianshan Tianchi to experience the tranquility of the alpine lake; then delving into the Altay region to visit Hemu Village and Kanas Lake, capturing the early autumn layers of red leaves in Northern Xinjiang; then heading south along the Yili River Valley, circling Sayram Lake, the ‘last tear of the Atlantic,’ and galloping across the Nalati Sky Grassland; then crossing the southern section of the Duku Highway, looking up at the red rock walls of the Tianshan Secret Grand Canyon; finally arriving at Kashgar, the gateway to Southern Xinjiang, visiting the Golden Grassland of Taxian, the Stone City ruins, and Baisha Lake, and on the return trip passing through Turpan to savor the sweetness of Grape Valley and the heat of Flaming Mountain. The entire route spans the Altai Mountains, the Junggar Basin, the Tianshan Mountains, and the Tarim Basin, offering rich geographical diversity and beautiful scenery in all seasons, with the most vibrant colors in late summer and early autumn (late August to mid-September).

🌄 Why choose a special train to tour Xinjiang?
Compared to the hassle of changing hotels and moving luggage daily in traditional group tours, the special train achieves a relaxed rhythm of ‘sleeping on the train, playing off the train.’ It is especially suitable for travelers who want to reduce physical exertion and focus on travel comfort. Anyi uses upgraded carriages with optimized soundproofing and shock absorption, ensuring nighttime travel does not affect rest. During the day, visit key attractions; at night, reminisce about the day’s sights in a moving ‘home,’ with the flowing Western Regions panorama outside the window—this immersive experience is the charm of slow travel.
Currently, seats for the 2026 summer and autumn schedules are limited; it is recommended to confirm travel intentions in advance. For more details, feel free to contact Manager Wang Fei of Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Service (180-9596-9599) for the latest itinerary materials and seat information.
