If you are tired of superficial, check-in style travel and long for a relaxed, experience-rich, and hassle-free panoramic tour of Xinjiang, then the ‘Dahezhinan’ tourist special train might be exactly what you are looking for. This train is not just a means of transportation, but a mobile comfortable hotel, integrating transportation, accommodation, dining, and cultural experiences, taking you leisurely across the vast Xinjiang, deep into the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains.
🌄 Route Highlights:Panoramic Coverage, Deep Exploration Without Rushing
In 2026, the ‘Dahezhinan’ tourist special train will continue to operate the 17-day panoramic tour of Northern and Southern Xinjiang, covering classic destinations such as Turpan, Kashgar, the Pamir Plateau, the Duku Highway, Nalati Grassland, Sayram Lake, Kanas, Hemu, and Tianchi Lake. The entire journey combines railway with short-distance transfers, significantly reducing long-distance bus travel, making it especially suitable for elderly tourists and families who value comfort and experience.
