🚂 Xinjiang Kunlun South-North Xinjiang Special Train 14-Day In-Depth Tour Registration Guide | Lying Down Across the Tianshan Mountains, a New Slow Travel Style with a Single Berth All the Way
In the vast expanse of Xinjiang, how can you efficiently and comfortably connect snow-capped mountains, lakes, grasslands, and ancient cities? In 2026, the ‘Kunlun’ tourist special train, with its ‘mobile star-rated hotel’ concept, offers tourists a leisurely in-depth travel solution. It is not a traditional means of transportation, but a mobile vacation space integrating transport, accommodation, and cultural experiences—explore scenic spots during the day, sleep soundly in a stable carriage at night, with no need to frequently move luggage or change hotels throughout the journey, truly achieving ‘depart in the evening, arrive in the morning; travel by night, tour by day’.
🌄 Route and Destination Highlights
The ‘Kunlun’ 14-day loop line runs through the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, covering core attractions in Northern Xinjiang such as Kanas Lake, Hemu Village, Sayram Lake, Nalati Grassland, and Kuerdening, as well as Southern Xinjiang’s Kashgar Ancient City, Baisha Lake, Panlong Ancient Road, Tax County, and Kuqa Grand Canyon. The itinerary spans alpine meadows, desert oases, plateau lakes, and border scenery, showcasing Xinjiang’s geographical diversity of ‘different weather every ten miles’.
The train passes through scenic corridors like the Ahe Highway and the southern section of the Duku Highway, with views changing with the seasons: early spring in May, lush greenery and blooming flower seas from June to September, and colorful forests after mid-September. The journey also includes multiple immersive experiences, such as sailing on Sayram Lake, taking the Hemu Yunxiao Peak cable car for panoramic views, visiting ethnic families, enjoying Qiuci dance performances, and feasting on Turpan fruits, making travel not just about ‘seeing’ but also ‘participating’.
