🚂✨ The 2027 “Splendid Tianfu” Panda Train departs:A flowing art of living in the Western Regions
As the train slowly leaves the Chengdu Plain, the scenery outside the window changes from the mist of Mount Qingcheng to the vast grasslands at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains—this is not an ordinary trip, but a 16-day high-end living experience with the train as home and the scenery as neighbor. The “Splendid Tianfu” Panda Train, as one of the few panoramic sightseeing tourist trains in China, integrates the magnificent mountains and rivers of northern and southern Xinjiang with refined service, making the journey itself the destination.
This itinerary spans five major regions—Urumqi, Altay, Ili, Kuqa, and Kashgar—covering classic landform units such as Tianchi of the Tianshan Mountains, Kanas Lake, Sayram Lake, the Duku Highway, and the Pamir Plateau. Unlike the tight pace of traditional group tours, the train adopts a “slow travel + in-depth” model: by day, branch routes explore hidden places; by night, guests return to comfortable carriages to rest, achieving the ideal state of “traveling a thousand miles of scenery by day, returning to a peaceful seat at night.”
It is worth mentioning that the train interior features luxury double suites (about 15 square meters) and entire exclusive carriages (accommodating up to 6 people), equipped with bathrooms, viewing windows, temperature control systems, and a dedicated service team. One service staff is assigned for every 2 guests, providing amenities such as laundry service, welcome banquets, and full-journey photography records, balancing privacy and ceremony.
