“2026 Silk Road Dream Enjoy Kanas Special Train:A Moving Scenic Route Through the North and South of Tianshan Mountains”
🌄 [Route Highlights:A Mobile ‘Five-Star Viewing Platform’]
The newly upgraded 2026 Silk Road Dream Enjoy tourist train takes ‘slow travel in Xinjiang’ as its core concept, transforming traditional rail travel into an in-depth experience of ‘scenery moving with the train.’ The train features all soft sleeper configurations, with each carriage recommended to have 8-10 guest rooms equipped with bathrooms, constant temperature underfloor heating, and large viewing windows. During night travel, passengers can enjoy the starry sky through smart dimming glass, while during daytime stops, it transforms into a ‘mobile viewing platform’—on the Duoku Highway section, passengers can lie in bed and watch the alternating snow-capped mountains and grasslands; when arriving at Sayram Lake, the entire window acts as a giant frame, capturing the deep blue of ‘the last tear drop of the Atlantic.’
The train offers specially designed ‘land cruise’ services: each carriage is equipped with a dedicated butler providing 24-hour hot drinks and Xinjiang specialty snacks; the dining car adopts a ‘one place, one feast’ model, with roasted stuffed buns in Urumqi, horse intestines in Yining, and pilaf in Kashgar all freshly prepared by local chefs; the entertainment carriage features an intangible cultural heritage corner where passengers can experience embroidery and Mukam instrument performances by various ethnic groups. According to the latest data from Xinjiang Railway in March 2026, the train is recommended to operate 12 trips annually, with a limited capacity of 80 passengers per trip, ensuring high service quality.
