🚂 Detailed introduction of the route or destination:
Since its upgrade in 2023, the Xinjiang New Oriental Express Special Train has become a popular choice for in-depth tours of Northern Xinjiang, thanks to its unique design of ‘train follows the scenery, travel by night and tour by day.’ In 2026, the train adds two themed routes: the ‘Kanas Loop’ and the ‘Yili River Valley Loop,’ covering core scenic spots like Tianshan Tianchi, Sayram Lake, Nalati Grassland, and Kanas Lake. The itinerary also includes lesser-known gems like the northern section of the Duku Highway and the S101 National Defense Highway, avoiding the congestion and fatigue of regular bus tours.
The train features a dual-class configuration: ‘Gold Diamond Car’ and ‘Blue Diamond Car’:
Gold Diamond Car:The entire car recommends 8 suites, each about 12㎡, equipped with a bathroom, constant-temperature air conditioning, humidifier, and large viewing windows. Bedding meets five-star hotel standards, and the car includes a small bar and a viewing lounge.
Blue Diamond Car:4-person compartments with bunk beds, shared public bathrooms and showers. Each car is equipped with a refrigerator and charging ports, suitable for budget-conscious travelers seeking quality.
The train’s daily schedule strictly follows the principle of ‘depart at sunrise, stop at sunset.’ For example, on the Northern Xinjiang loop, the train crosses the Junggar Basin at night and arrives at Kanas Scenic Area in the early morning, allowing passengers to enter the scenic area first thing and avoid peak crowds.
