The itinerary passes through landmarks like the Flaming Mountains, Karez Well, and Grape Valley, experiencing the wisdom of oasis civilization; traverses the Duku Highway, known as ‘one of China’s most beautiful highways,’ witnessing the changes of four seasons in a single day; and explores natural wonders like Heavenly Lake of Tianshan, Hemu Village, and Colorful Beach, immersing in a landscape of light and shadow. Additionally, it includes activities like overlooking the Horgos Port and strolling through Kashgar’s Old City, presenting a tapestry of diverse cultures while respecting local lifestyles.
The train departs from the Central Plains, passing through Henan, Shaanxi, and Gansu, eventually deep into the northern and southern Tianshan, forming a cultural and geographical corridor spanning east to west.
