🌄 Autumn in Xinjiang: Slow Travel Through Northern and Southern Xinjiang on the ‘Dahezhinan’ Train
When the golden poplar forests dye the banks of the Tarim River, and the grasslands at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains gradually take on warm hues, Xinjiang enters its most poetic season of the year. Unlike the hustle and bustle of summer or the stillness of winter, autumn in Xinjiang offers both vast grandeur and a touch of serene tranquility. The newly upgraded ‘Dahezhinan’ tourist train in 2026, with its comfortable experience of ‘direct train, day trips with overnight travel, and en-suite bathrooms throughout,’ provides visitors with a new way to immerse themselves in a leisurely tour of northern and southern Xinjiang.
🚂 Route Highlights:A Mobile ‘Home’: A Panoramic Journey Without Transfers
The ‘Dahezhinan’ train is supported by the China Railway system, featuring a visual theme of the ‘Yellow River Golden Belt’ on its exterior, and interiors incorporating Central Plains cultural symbols such as Yangshao pottery patterns and Longmen Grottoes flying apsaras elements, making it a ‘walking cultural exhibition hall.’ The entire train adopts hotel-style sleeper design, with all compartments equipped with separate wet and dry bathrooms, eliminating the inconvenience of queuing for washing up on traditional green trains.
The train features a dedicated dining car, where a professional chef team provides three meals a day, balancing Central Plains flavors with Xinjiang specialties, focusing on low oil and salt, and soft, easy-to-digest food; the multi-functional car integrates audio-visual, chess and card, KTV, and tea art, allowing for tea tasting and sightseeing during the day, and singing and chatting at night. Additionally, the carriages have been adapted for the elderly—with wider berths, non-slip carpets, emergency call systems, and accessible handrails—ensuring a safer journey for seniors.
More importantly, luggage stays on the train throughout the trip, so you don’t need to drag heavy bags when getting off to explore, truly achieving ‘travel light.’
