In 2026, the ‘Southern Train · Xiaoxiang’ tourist special train will launch a new schedule, offering a comfortable and culturally immersive option for travelers who love deep, slow travel.
📍 Full Coverage of Routes and Destinations
The ‘Xiaoxiang’ is not an ordinary train but a high-end tourist special train integrating transportation, accommodation, dining, and sightseeing services. Its core route focuses on the entire Xinjiang region, connecting Eastern, Northern, Western, and Southern Xinjiang, with the journey spanning Qinghai, Gansu, and other areas, lasting about 18 days (slightly varying by boarding station).
The train will take you deep into multiple representative areas: starting from the Hami Grand Sea Road Devil City, passing through Urumqi, Tianchi Lake, Kanas Lake, Hemu Village, then to the Nalati Grassland and Sayram Lake in the Ili River Valley, heading south to Kashgar Old City, along the China-Pakistan Friendship Highway into the Pamir Plateau, passing Baisha Lake and Karakul Lake, and finally returning via Korla, Golmud, and other places.
