🚂 Traveling through Xinjiang in a ‘mobile home’:The Kunlun special train brings comfort back to the journey
In this fast-paced era, the meaning of travel has long gone beyond just checking in at scenic spots; it’s about how to achieve true relaxation and enjoyment along the way. In 2026, as high-end tourism special trains continue to upgrade, the ‘Kunlun’, an air-conditioned panoramic tourism special train for northern and southern Xinjiang created by Urumqi in 2023, is becoming an ideal choice for many tourists—especially the elderly and those who prefer a slow-paced travel style—with its unique model of ‘full sleeper berths + direct access to scenic spots + no luggage moving’.
🌄 Train Starting Point and Route Features
The ‘Kunlun’ tourism special train uses Urumqi as its hub. Tourists from all over the country can arrive by plane or high-speed rail and gather there to depart together. As a loop product covering the essence of northern and southern Xinjiang, it avoids frequent transfers and the bumpy rides of long-distance buses, connecting classic destinations like Turpan, Kuqa, Kashgar, Taxkorgan, Nalati, Yining, Altay, and Kanas into a smooth route. During the day, you visit core scenic areas, and at night, you return to the special train to rest, without needing to move luggage throughout the entire journey, truly achieving ‘the train moves with the scenery, and people are in the picture’.
Compared to other modes of transportation, the ‘Kunlun’ has a gentle pace and a reasonable daily travel time, making it especially suitable for tourists who are not used to long car rides or want to reduce physical exertion. At the same time, the train is equipped with an onboard medical team, professional guides, and a caring service team to ensure a worry-free and safe journey.
