🚂 【Panda Special Train·Anyi】A poetic journey through Xinjiang at a leisurely pace:16 days crossing the Tianshan Mountains from north to south, encountering lakes, mountains, and grassland wonders
Have you ever thought of turning Xinjiang’s top attractions into a moving scroll through a train journey? In the spring and summer of 2026, the ‘Panda Special Train·Anyi’ takes comfortable carriages as your home, guiding you from Urumqi north to Kanas, west to the Ili River Valley, south to the Pamir Plateau, and east back to the Turpan Basin—no need for frequent transfers throughout the journey, integrating dining, accommodation, travel, and sightseeing, allowing your trip to return to ease and pleasure.
🌄 Route Highlights:See Xinjiang’s diverse landscapes in one trip
This 16-day loop cleverly combines alpine lakes, snowy mountains and grasslands, desert oases, and canyon wonders. The itinerary covers classic scenic spots such as Tianshan Tianchi, Kanas Lake, Sayram Lake, Nalati Grassland, the southern section of the Duku Highway, Tianshan Secret Grand Canyon, Colorful Beach, Baisha Lake, Golden Grass Beach, Flaming Mountain, and Grape Valley. It offers both the grandeur of natural scenery and cultural experiences in multi-ethnic areas (such as home visits with local ethnic groups and folk exchanges).
Notably, the itinerary avoids high-intensity hiking and focuses more on the rhythm of sightseeing and balance with rest. For example, a full day of immersive exploration is arranged in Hemu Village, where you can enjoy the misty forest village in the morning; at Sayram Lake, a lake-circling approach is used to capture different lights and shadows of ‘the last tear of the Atlantic’; the southern section of the Duku Highway winds through the heart of the Tianshan Mountains, with alternating views of snow-capped mountains, forests, and canyons, known as a ‘four seasons in one day’ landscape corridor.
Currently (April 2026), all scenic spots have entered their spring opening period. The ice and snow at Tianshan Tianchi are melting, revealing clear lake water; Nalati Grassland is showing early green shoots; Kanas Lake’s water level is rising, with boats operating normally; grapevines in Turpan are beginning to sprout, and the Karez wells are flowing—making it an ideal time for off-peak travel.
