🚂 2026 New Oriental Express 14-Day North and South Xinjiang Tour Train Latest Price List:Slow Travel Through the Western Regions, Luxurious Mobile Residence
On the vast land of Xinjiang, the scenery of North and South Xinjiang is distinct yet equally magnificent—North Xinjiang boasts shimmering lakes and lush forests, while South Xinjiang features towering snow-capped mountains and profound culture. However, journeys often spanning thousands of kilometers can cause tourists to miss the tranquility of the scenery amidst the rush. In 2026, the ‘New Oriental Express’ luxury tourist train continues the model of ‘departing in the evening, arriving in the morning, sleeping on the train, and sightseeing off the train,’ transforming the journey into a slow-paced, immersive experience. This is not just a train but a mobile residence equipped with bathrooms, constant-temperature air conditioning, panoramic windows, and exclusive services, eliminating the need to repeatedly move luggage, ensuring restful nights and focused sightseeing during the day.
