This is the unique travel experience offered by the 2026 Tianshan Special Train. Unlike the rush of traditional group tours, the Tianshan Special Train adopts a ‘depart in the evening, arrive in the morning’ model, with fixed compartments throughout the journey and no need to move luggage. Spend your days exploring the highlights of northern and southern Xinjiang in depth, allowing the journey to truly return to comfort and ease.
