[Kunlun Express Panoramic Tour:Urumqi + Heavenly Lake + Kanas In-depth Experience] 🚂✨
[Detailed Introduction to Itinerary or Destination]
As a benchmark project for high-end tourism in Xinjiang, the “Kunlun Express” tourist train has become a popular choice for in-depth exploration of northern and southern Xinjiang since its operation in 2023, thanks to its service concept of a “moving five-star hotel.” In 2026, the train will undergo a comprehensive facility upgrade, adopting sound insulation and noise reduction technology throughout the train. The carriages will be equipped with constant temperature air conditioning, humidifiers, and charging ports, while the soft sleeper carriages will feature smart toilets and observation windows to meet passengers’ high demands for comfort.
The itinerary design covers Xinjiang’s core landscapes:Starting from Urumqi, the journey connects the picturesque scenery of Heavenly Lake in the Tianshan Mountains, Kanas as the “backyard garden,” the deep blue secret realm of Sayram Lake, and the四季 (four seasons) wonders of the Duoku Highway. The train operates on a “play during the day, travel at night” model, maximizing time utilization and avoiding the fatigue of long-distance travel. According to data from the Xinjiang Cultural and Tourism Department in 2026, this itinerary covers 5 national 5A-level scenic spots and 3 World Natural Heritage sites, offering a condensed version of Xinjiang’s natural and cultural landscapes.
