🛤 ️ About the New Oriental Express
The New Oriental Express is a high-end tourist train created by China Railway Urumqi Group Co., Ltd., operating since 1999. Initially targeting international tourists, it gradually opened to the domestic market after 2020, becoming a signature feature of Xinjiang tourism.
The train operates on a ‘travel at night, sightsee during the day’ model, allowing you to sleep comfortably in your cabin and wake up at a new destination. In 2026, the train completed its third-generation upgrade, with 18 carriages including high-end soft sleepers, dining cars, and bar cars, offering better sealing, shock absorption, and soundproofing, making it more suitable for long journeys.
🛌 Mobile ‘Star-Rated Hotel’:Carriage Facilities
A major feature of the New Oriental Express is that all cabins come with private bathrooms, featuring a wet-dry separation design, ensuring a comfortable washing experience during your trip. The train mainly offers the following three cabin types:

Xiyue Gold Diamond:Moderate space, balancing comfort and value, ideal for couples or friends.

The train’s public areas are equally rich, featuring a dome starry sky-themed dining car, a professional kitchen and living car, a multifunctional bar car (with KTV, piano, etc.), and a sightseeing carriage, meeting your social, entertainment, and viewing needs.
