New Southern Train Xiaoxiang:Crossing Mountains and Rivers, Encountering Xinjiang’s 18-Day Dream Journey 🌄
Detailed Introduction to the Route or Destination
On the vast land of China, there is a charming tourist route—the New Southern Train Xiaoxiang. It is like a flowing ribbon, connecting the prosperity of the south with the grandeur of Xinjiang. In 2026, this route attracts countless tourists to embark on this dream journey across mountains and rivers with its unique charm.

Xinjiang, this mysterious and vast land, boasts breathtaking natural landscapes and profound cultural heritage. From the majestic Tianshan Mountains to the boundless deserts, from the rippling lakes to the colorful Danxia landforms, every scene seems like a meticulously crafted work of art by nature. It is also a cradle of cultural integration among various ethnic groups, with unique folk customs, melodious music and dance, and delicious local cuisine that captivate everyone.
The itinerary of the New Southern Train Xiaoxiang is ingeniously designed. It departs from Guangzhou Baiyun Station, heading north through multiple provinces, and finally arrives in the magical land of Xinjiang. During this 18-day journey, tourists will have the opportunity to enjoy the magnificent scenery along the way, experience cultural differences across regions, and deeply explore the unique charm of Xinjiang.
For tourists who love natural scenery, Xinjiang is undoubtedly a paradise. Tianchi Lake on Tianshan Mountain is like a bright pearl embedded in the Tianshan Mountains, with crystal-clear water surrounded by mountains, offering stunning views. Kanas Lake attracts countless tourists with its mysterious lake monster legend and picturesque natural scenery. The lake water changes color with the seasons and weather, sometimes as blue as a sapphire, sometimes as green as an emerald. Hemu Village, a small village surrounded by birch forests, is as peaceful as a paradise. In the early morning, when the first ray of sunlight falls on the rooftops, the entire village is bathed in a golden glow, breathtakingly beautiful.
For history and culture enthusiasts, Xinjiang also has rich treasures. Kashgar Old City, an ancient city full of folk customs, is a microcosm of Xinjiang’s ethnic cultures. Walking through the streets of the old city feels like traveling back in time, with ancient buildings, traditional handicraft shops, and bustling bazaars all exuding a strong historical atmosphere. The Royal Palace, once the residence of nobles from various ethnic groups, bears witness to Xinjiang’s historical changes. Here, tourists can learn about the history, culture, and traditional customs of different ethnic groups.
The seasonal advantages of Xinjiang are also very obvious. In spring, the earth awakens, and wildflowers bloom on the grasslands, making it a great time for outings and flower viewing. In summer, the weather is cool, making it an ideal summer resort where tourists can ride horses and camp on the grasslands, enjoying the beauty of nature. Autumn is one of the most beautiful seasons in Xinjiang, with golden poplar forests and fiery red maple leaves creating a colorful picture. In winter, Xinjiang’s snow scenery is stunning, and tourists can ski and play in the snow on the snowy mountains, experiencing the joy of winter sports.
This route is suitable for all kinds of people. Whether young people seeking excitement and adventure or middle-aged and elderly people preferring leisure and tranquility, everyone can find their own fun on this journey. The core check-in spots are countless. In addition to the aforementioned Tianchi Lake, Kanas Lake, Hemu Village, and Kashgar Old City, there are also Colorful Beach, Sayram Lake, and Nalati Grassland, each worth stopping to admire and leaving beautiful memories.
