❓ What is the “Dahezhinanhao” tourist special train?
The “Dahezhinanhao” is a high-quality tourist train that starts from the Central Plains culture and offers an in-depth, slow tour of northern and southern Xinjiang. It is not an ordinary passenger train but a “mobile vacation space” integrating accommodation, dining, transportation, and entertainment. The special train departs from Zhengzhou, passes through historical and cultural cities such as Luoyang, Xi’an, and Lanzhou, and finally enters the heart of Xinjiang, connecting key attractions like Turpan, Kashgar, the Pamir Plateau, the Duku Highway, Nalati Grassland, Kanas, and Sayram Lake.
This special train features a travel rhythm of “travel by day, sleep by night, the train moves with you” — during the day, tourists get off for in-depth exploration, and at night, they return to their private compartments to sleep, with luggage staying on the train throughout, eliminating the hassle of frequent hotel changes and luggage handling. It is especially suitable for middle-aged and elderly friends, family trips, or travelers who want to easily see the diverse landscapes of Xinjiang.
