【Train and Route Features:Excellent Integration of a Mobile ‘Five-Star Hotel’ with Xinjiang’s Human Geography】
The 2026 newly upgraded New Oriental Express Special Train, with ‘high-end customization + in-depth experience’ as its core, creates a new benchmark for Xinjiang tourism. The train features all-en-suite cabin designs, equipped with dining cars, kitchen cars, and entertainment cars. Its paint scheme is inspired by Xinjiang’s silk colors and natural landscapes, earning it the reputation of a ‘mobile landscape art gallery’.
The route design covers the essence of northern and southern Xinjiang attractions. The summer edition connects natural wonders like Urumqi, Keketuohai, Kanas, Sayram Lake, and the Duku Highway; the October southern Xinjiang edition focuses on cultural and autumn landscapes such as Turpan, Kashgar, the Pamir Plateau, and Tarim Poplar Forest.
