🚂 Silver-haired Senior Special Train ‘Yangtze River Delta Star’:A 17-Day Slow-Paced Journey Through Xinjiang
For many middle-aged and elderly friends, the meaning of travel is not about rushing, but about immersion—seeing the vast mountains and rivers, listening to the wind through the treetops, and feeling the breath of the earth. In 2026, the ‘Yangtze River Delta Star’ tourist special train continues the comfortable mode of ‘travel by day, sleep by night, train follows people,’ tailoring a deep route across northern and southern Xinjiang for the silver-haired group. No need to frequently move luggage throughout the journey; sleep soundly on the train at night and tour leisurely during the day, truly achieving a relaxed experience of ‘lying down to see the scenery.’

Starting from Shanghai, heading westward, it passes through core cities such as Korla, Kashgar, Tashkurgan, Kuqa, Yining, Beitun, and Urumqi, covering the edge of the Taklamakan Desert, the eastern foothills of the Pamir Plateau, the hinterland of the Tianshan Mountains, and the southern edge of the Junggar Basin.
Tourists will visit the Lop Nur Village to learn about the changes in oasis civilization; gallop along the Tarim River, gazing at the vast sea of sand; overlook the snow-capped peak of Muztagh Ata from the shores of Karakul Lake; stroll along White Sand Lake, experiencing the clarity and tranquility of the plateau lake; delve into the streets of Kashgar’s Old City, touching the remnants of the thousand-year Silk Road; traverse the Duku Highway, experiencing the vertical landscape belt of ‘four seasons in one day’; stop at the Nalati Grassland and Bayanbulak, watching the sunset glow over the Nine Bends and Eighteen Turns; finally, between Sayram Lake and Kanas Lake, complete the classic imagination of ‘Western Region Waters.’
Additionally, the itinerary includes the classic landmark of Tianchi Lake in the Tianshan Mountains, where the lake and mountain scenery complement each other, providing a perfect ending to the journey.
