🚞 2026 Kunlun Hao Xinjiang Sunset Red Tourism Special Train Complete Travel Guide
Many middle-aged and elderly friends have plans to visit Xinjiang but are often discouraged by issues such as the vastness of northern and southern Xinjiang, scattered attractions, long road journeys, frequent luggage handling, and complicated itinerary planning. The 2026 Kunlun Hao Northern and Southern Xinjiang Panoramic Tourism Special Train has been optimized to address these travel pain points, covering key attractions in both northern and southern Xinjiang in one trip, making the journey worry-free and comfortable.
📍 Train and Starting Point Introduction
The Kunlun Hao Tourism Special Train is a tourism train product developed by Urumqi. In 2026, all departures will use Urumqi as the starting and ending point, adopting a “travel by night, stop by day” operation mode. The train travels at night, and during the day, it stops at stations for passengers to disembark and visit attractions. This does not take up daytime sightseeing time, nor does it require frequent changes of accommodation or packing and moving large luggage. Luggage can be kept on the train berth throughout the journey, and passengers only need to carry a small bag when disembarking for sightseeing.
As a hub city for entering Xinjiang, Urumqi itself has rich sightseeing content and is not just a simple transit point. Located at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, this city has been a commercial hub between the Central Plains and Central Asia since ancient times, where various ethnic cultures converge and blend, forming a unique urban character. During the free time after arrival, you can visit the International Grand Bazaar, where over 3,000 shops gather various specialty handicrafts and foods; you can also taste baked buns, hand-grabbed rice, milk skin cake, and other specialty dishes at Lingguan Lane and Hetian Second Street; for tourists interested in history and culture, you can also visit the Xinjiang Museum to see precious cultural relics such as the “Five Stars Rise in the East, Benefit China” brocade arm guard and learn about the historical and cultural context of the Western Regions.
The train itself is designed for comfort, with air conditioning throughout, a clean interior, and a dining car offering both light meals to suit general tastes and Xinjiang specialties. The entire journey is accompanied by service staff and a tour health doctor, so any problems during the trip can be addressed by staff at any time.
