It is especially suitable for travelers who want to visit the core attractions of both northern and southern Xinjiang in one trip without frequent transfers and luggage handling.
🌄 Detailed Route and Destination Introduction
The ‘Jinxiu Tianfu’ special train connects the natural scenery of northern Xinjiang with the cultural landscapes of southern Xinjiang, covering classic destinations such as Tianshan Tianchi, Kanas, Hemu, Sayram Lake, Nalati Grassland, Duku Highway, Kashgar Ancient City, and Turpan. The itinerary spans three major geographical units of Xinjiang: the Altai Mountains, Tianshan Mountains, and the northern foothills of the Kunlun Mountains.
The northern Xinjiang section features lakes, forests, and snow-capped mountains. Tianshan Tianchi has clear waters reflecting Bogda Peak; Kanas and Hemu are known as ‘nature’s reserves,’ with colorful forests in autumn and snow-covered landscapes in winter, offering beauty in all seasons.
The Ili River Valley showcases the softness of grasslands and lakes. Sayram Lake is called ‘the last tear of the Atlantic,’ with azure waters and wide views along the lakeside road; Nalati Sky Grassland spreads like a green carpet, with leisurely cattle and sheep.
The southern Xinjiang section focuses on history and culture. Kashgar Ancient City preserves the texture of thousand-year-old streets and alleys, with terraced houses on high platforms; the Tianshan Secret Grand Canyon near Kuqa is colorful, and the middle section of the Duku Highway runs through it, majestic and steep.
On the return trip, passing through Turpan, sites like the Jiaohe Ancient City, Flaming Mountain, and Karez Well showcase the rich heritage of the eastern Silk Road.
