🚂 Travel slowly through Xinjiang by special train | The ‘Dahe Zhi Nan’ 17-day tour of northern and southern Xinjiang, a comfortable new option departing from Zhengzhou
For many friends planning a trip to Xinjiang in 2026, balancing itinerary richness with travel comfort has always been a challenge. Self-driving distances are too long, group tours are too fast-paced, and flight prices fluctuate greatly… Now, a travel method combining ‘mobile accommodation + in-depth sightseeing’ is gaining attention from more families and elderly tourists—the ‘Dahe Zhi Nan’ tourist train, departing from Zhengzhou, covering the core attractions of northern and southern Xinjiang in 17 days. No need to frequently move luggage, sightseeing during the day and traveling at night, truly achieving ‘lying down while enjoying the scenery’.
🌄 Detailed Introduction to Routes and Destinations
The ‘Dahe Zhi Nan’ train is a Xinjiang panoramic tour product tailored for tourists from the Central Plains region, supported by the railway system. The train body incorporates elements of Yellow River culture, earning it the title ‘Walking Cultural Living Room of the Central Plains.’ Departing from Zhengzhou Station, it passes through Luoyang, Xi’an, and Lanzhou, deep into Xinjiang’s hinterland, covering the cultural heritage of southern Xinjiang and the natural wonders of northern Xinjiang.
The itinerary connects classic destinations such as Turpan, Kashgar, the Pamir Plateau, the Duku Highway (southern and middle sections), Nalati Grassland, Sayram Lake, Kanas, Hemu, Colorful Beach, and Tianshan Tianchi, encompassing almost all of Xinjiang’s most representative landform types: the scorching Flaming Mountains, the clear Pamirs, the vast grasslands, the serene lakes, and the majestic canyons—all in one journey.
Notably, starting from May 2026, several seasonally open areas including the Duku Highway, Gongnaisi Scenic Area, Kanas, and Nalati have fully resumed operations. From May to September, Xinjiang enjoys pleasant weather and diverse scenery—grasslands turn green, fruits ripen, lakes thaw, and autumn colors gradually appear, each month offering its own charm.
