🚂 New Oriental Express Tourist Train Opens Pre-sales｜Immersive Slow Travel in Xinjiang, Embark on a New Chapter of Mobile Luxury Travel
As the 2026 peak tourism season in Xinjiang approaches, the highly anticipated New Oriental Express tourist train has fully opened pre-sales. This high-end tourist train, hailed as a ‘mobile star-rated hotel,’ is becoming an ideal choice for more and more tourists to deeply experience Xinjiang’s natural and cultural beauty, thanks to its unique model of ‘traveling by day, resting by night, and moving with the train.’
Unlike the rushed pace of traditional group tours, the New Oriental Express takes the comfortable carriage as home, delving into core scenic areas by day and resting peacefully on the train by night, without the need to frequently move luggage throughout the journey, truly achieving ‘slow travel, deep experience.’ Whether it’s snow-capped mountains and lakes, prairie secrets, historical relics, or oasis customs, all can be savored at a leisurely pace.
🌄 Route Highlights:Traverse the Essence of Northern and Southern Xinjiang, Experience Diverse Landscapes in One Journey
The 2026 New Oriental Express route design balances seasonal features and landscape diversity. Summer itineraries focus on premium natural landscapes in Northern Xinjiang like Kanas, Hemu, and Sayram Lake, while also connecting classic sections like the Duku Highway and Bayinbuluke Grassland; autumn shifts to Southern Xinjiang, delving into Ruoqiang, Hotan, and Shache on the edge of the Taklamakan Desert, exploring Loulan cultural relics, Hotan Jade River, and poplar forests for cultural and ecological wonders.
The train uses a third-generation upgraded carriage, equipped with bathrooms, large panoramic windows, a fresh air system, and shock absorbers to ensure a quiet and smooth journey. The carriage features a Chinese-style dining area and a leisure salon, with dedicated butlers, professional guides, and onboard medical staff providing full-service support, balancing comfort and quality. All meals blend Xinjiang local flavors with diverse tastes to meet different needs.
Please note that specific itineraries may be reasonably adjusted due to objective factors such as weather, road conditions, or scenic area openings, subject to mutual agreement, to ensure the overall travel experience.
