🌄 Detailed introduction to routes or destinations
The Sunset Red tourism special trains operating in 2026 generally adopt a ‘depart in the evening, arrive in the morning; travel by night, tour by day’ model. During the day, you visit core scenic spots, and at night, you sleep soundly on a stable train. No need to move luggage throughout the journey, with seamless connections. The routes cover the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, connecting diverse landscapes such as snow-capped mountains, lakes, grasslands, deserts, canyons, and ancient cities, truly achieving ‘see four seasons in one day, glimpse a thousand years in one look’.
The itinerary spans representative attractions in northern Xinjiang, including Kanas Lake, Hemu Village, Sayram Lake, Nalati Grassland, Kuerdening, as well as southern Xinjiang’s Kashgar Ancient City, Baisha Lake, Panlong Ancient Road, and Kuqa Grand Canyon. Along the way, you’ll traverse scenic corridors like the southern section of the Duku Highway and the Ahe Highway, allowing you to enjoy highland lakes reflecting snowy peaks and stroll through ancient Silk Road cities, experiencing the blend of nature and culture.
Ground transfers uniformly use 7-seat or larger commercial vehicles or medium-to-large tourist buses, with models including 7-seat, 19-seat, 35-seat, and 55-seat options, flexibly allocated based on group size to ensure comfortable seating and free sightseeing. All vehicles have legal operating qualifications, and drivers are experienced and familiar with Xinjiang road conditions.
