🚂 See the North and South of Xinjiang While Lying Down — Kunlun Special Train Ticket Price Reference (2026 Edition)
Want to visit the top attractions of both northern and southern Xinjiang in one trip without constantly moving luggage and changing hotels? In 2026, the ‘Kunlun’ tourist special train continues to offer a new choice for travelers seeking comfort and in-depth experiences, acting as a ‘moving star-rated hotel.’ Launched in Urumqi in 2023, this high-end tourist train features sleeper berths throughout, covering diverse landscapes like snow-capped mountains, lakes, grasslands, and deserts, truly achieving a relaxed pace of ‘rest on the train, play off the train.’
📍 Route and Destination Highlights
The Kunlun special train connects Xinjiang’s most representative natural and cultural landscapes: from Turpan’s Flaming Mountain and Karez Well to Kuqa’s Tianshan Grand Canyon and Qiuci culture; from Kashgar Old City, Baishahu Lake, and Karakul Lake to Tashkurgan on the Pamir Plateau; then through the southern section of the Duku Highway across Bayinbuluke Grassland to northern Xinjiang gems like Nalati and Kuerdening; finally deep into the Altay region to explore Hemu, Kanas, and Colorful Beach, returning to Urumqi. The entire journey covers classic landmarks like Tianshan Tianchi and the International Grand Bazaar, condensing Xinjiang’s diverse geography and culture into a 14-day itinerary.
The special train is especially suitable for travelers who prefer a slower pace and less travel fatigue, particularly popular among middle-aged and elderly groups and family tourists. The carriages feature soft furnishings with Xinjiang elements, balancing privacy and practicality, with some room types equipped with bathrooms, sofas, desks, and wash areas for a more relaxed journey.
Please note that due to weather, road conditions, or scenic area policies, the travel agency may reasonably adjust the itinerary order or stay times with passenger consent. Specific arrangements are subject to the final departure notice.
