🌄 Route Highlights:Mobile comfortable space, deep slow tour of northern and southern Xinjiang
The ‘Dahezhinan’ is a special tourist train designed for long-distance in-depth tours, adopting a ‘day tour, night travel’ mode—disembark during the day to visit core attractions, and sleep soundly in familiar compartments at night, without the need to frequently move luggage or change hotels throughout the journey. This pace is especially suitable for families focused on comfort, middle-aged and elderly tourists, and travelers who want to avoid high-intensity itineraries.
The entire train is equipped with bathrooms, offering multiple room types including 2-person, 3-person, and 4-person rooms, balancing privacy and practicality. The carriages use multiple noise reduction technologies, with measured operating noise below 45 decibels, close to a library environment; they are also equipped with constant temperature air conditioning, USB charging ports, reading lights, emergency call systems, and other detailed facilities to enhance the travel experience.
The multi-functional carriage integrates audio-visual screenings, board games, and karaoke. The dining car is staffed by a professional chef team, providing daily Xinjiang specialty meals that cater to popular tastes, such as baked buns, big plate chicken, and pilaf, balancing nutrition and flavor.
