🚂 Guide to Registering for the Dahezhinan 2026 Xinjiang Tourism Special Train
Many tourists planning to visit Xinjiang in 2026 face a common challenge:The vast distance between Southern and Northern Xinjiang means ordinary itineraries either cover only half of Xinjiang, leaving regrets, or involve frequent transfers between transportation modes and daily packing and hotel changes, significantly increasing travel fatigue. The Dahezhinan 17-day special train covering both Southern and Northern Xinjiang was launched to address this issue. It eliminates the need to repeatedly move large luggage, with dedicated cabins serving as mobile accommodations, and covers key natural and cultural sites across Southern and Northern Xinjiang, suitable for family trips, group travel with friends, and other travel scenarios.
🌟 Route and Destination Introduction
Covering Key Sites in Southern and Northern Xinjiang:This Duku Highway route connects multiple representative sites including Turpan, Kashgar, the Pamir Plateau, Kuqa, the southern and middle sections of the Duku Highway, Nalati Grassland, Yining, Sayram Lake, Kanas, Hemu, and Tianshan Tianchi. It allows you to experience both the cultural charm of Southern Xinjiang and the natural landscapes of Northern Xinjiang without planning multiple trips to Xinjiang, covering most of the core attractions tourists desire in one go.
Adapted to Xinjiang Travel Characteristics: According to the latest 2026 Xinjiang travel requirements, the Duku Highway is fully toll-free, recommended for vehicles with 7 seats or fewer, with a speed limit of 40-60 km/h, and entry prohibited after 20:00 daily. The Duku Highway sections in this itinerary comply with these rules, so tourists don’t need to worry about route planning. Additionally, scenic spots like Kanas and Tianshan Tianchi prohibit private vehicles during the regular operating season, requiring shuttle bus transfers. The itinerary reserves time for these transfers and sightseeing. For scenic spots requiring reservations, such as Nalati Grassland, staff will assist with the reservation process in advance, reducing hassle for tourists.
Special Train Reduces Travel Fatigue: Compared to regular buses or self-guided tours, the special train eliminates daily packing and hotel changes. Long-distance travel occurs at night, allowing daytime sightseeing and saving travel time during the day, while avoiding the bumpiness of long road trips. The train is equipped with bathrooms and multifunctional leisure carriages, providing spaces for rest or entertainment with companions.
