🚂 Travel slowly through northern and southern Xinjiang on the new national train:A 14-day poetic journey tailored for middle-aged and elderly travelers
On the vast and expansive land of Xinjiang, the railway not only connects cities but also links the seasonal landscapes of snow-capped mountains, grasslands, lakes, and ancient cities. In the late spring and early summer of 2026, the ‘New National Train’ northern and southern Xinjiang tourist special train will set off again, offering a comfortable ‘train follows travelers, one berth throughout’ model, providing a relaxed, effortless, and in-depth travel experience for middle-aged and elderly tourists. Unlike traditional bus tours that involve hours of bumpy rides, this special train stops at scenic spots for sightseeing during the day and runs smoothly at night, truly achieving ‘day tours and night travel,’ making the journey pace soothing and unhurried.
The train features a full soft sleeper design, with each carriage having about 10 four-person compartments, equipped with large viewing windows, constant temperature air conditioning, and charging ports, ensuring basic comfort during the trip. More thoughtfully, the Urumqi station offers a ‘Little Red Cap’ luggage handling service, assisting from entry to boarding, reducing physical burden. The itinerary includes a professional tour guide accompanying the entire journey, providing explanations of the landscapes, history, and ethnic customs along the way, allowing the scenery to be not only seen but also felt.
