🚂 2026 New Oriental Express Travel Practical Guide | Unlock the Panoramic Scenery of Xinjiang in One Go
When planning a trip to Xinjiang, many people worry about the fatigue caused by the vast territory and scattered attractions. The New Oriental Express, with its ‘travel by day, ride by night’ special train model, perfectly addresses these concerns. After configuration optimization in 2026, the overall travel experience is more comfortable, with different schedules covering seasonal landscapes to suit various travel needs.
✨ Route and Special Train Details
Basic Configuration of the Special Train: The 2026 New Oriental Express has been upgraded and optimized. The entire train is equipped with a constant temperature system, runs smoothly, and has good sound insulation. It offers carriages in different specifications, such as 3-compartment, 4-compartment, and 5-compartment, suitable for family trips, group outings, and high-end customized scenarios. The compartments are equipped with comfortable bedding and ample storage space, with some compartments featuring private bathrooms. The entire train also includes a dining car and leisure common areas, allowing you to enjoy a relaxing time even while the train is moving. The passenger capacity is limited, ensuring spacious common areas without crowding, and service staff are available throughout the journey to attend to various needs.
Route Coverage Highlights:This route connects the characteristic landscapes of Northern and Southern Xinjiang. The summer schedule covers the canyon streams of Keketuohai, the natural scenery of Hemu Village, the lake and mountain views of Kanas, the clear waters of Sayram Lake, the grassland scenery of Nalati, and the plateau landscapes of Pamir. The October Southern Xinjiang schedule allows you to experience the cultural relics of Turpan, the characteristic neighborhoods of Hotan, and the poplar forests of Tarim.

The relaxed pace of the itinerary is suitable for travelers of all ages.
Pre-Trip Preparations:For trips to high-altitude areas or certain border regions, a border通行证 (border pass) is required. This can be arranged in advance at your place of household registration, or you can consult staff upon arrival in Urumqi for assistance. Network signals may be weak in some parts of Xinjiang, so it is advisable to download offline maps in advance and carry a portable power bank. Temperature differences between day and night are significant in scenic areas, so it is recommended to bring a thick jacket and comfortable hiking shoes regardless of the season, and take sun protection and moisturizing measures. If you have special dietary requirements, please inform the staff in advance for coordination.
