🚂 Xinjiang’s high-end tourist train “New Oriental Express” 2027 pre-sale departures are now open! Immerse yourself in a journey across north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, 14 days to take in the essence of the Western Regions
As the summer of 2027 approaches, Xinjiang tourism continues to heat up. As one of the few high-end railway tourism products in China, the “New Oriental Express” has become a focus of attention for travelers seeking comfort and experience, with its full-journey mobile hotel-style carriages, in-depth slow travel pace, and complete loop covering northern to southern Xinjiang. This article organizes the core arrangements of this route based on recently public information and strictly follows the published itinerary and price framework for explanation, for the reference of those planning to travel.
🌄 Route highlights:From snow-capped mountains and lakes to desert oases, see Xinjiang’s diverse landscapes in one train journey
The “New Oriental Express” is not an ordinary train, but a professionally converted tourist train equipped with en-suite compartments, observation cars, dining cars, and onboard service staff. The entire route spans the eastern and western ends of Xinjiang, starting from Urumqi, going through the Altay region deep to the shores of Kanas Lake, then heading south along the Ili River Valley, crossing the Duku Highway, finally arriving in Kashgar, then returning to Turpan and Urumqi, forming a rare grand loop of “Northern Xinjiang—Ili—Southern Xinjiang—Eastern Xinjiang.”
Along the way it covers multiple high-quality natural and cultural landscapes: the clear water reflections of Tianchi in the Tianshan Mountains, the sunset light and shadows of Wucaitan (Five-Colored Beach), the primeval forests and Tuva villages of Kanas, the morning mist and cooking smoke of Hemu, the “last tear of the Atlantic” at Sayram Lake, the sky grasslands of Nalati, the winding nine bends and eighteen curves of Bayanbulak, the red rock walls of the Tianshan Secret Grand Canyon, the pure tranquility of Baisha Lake, as well as the historical texture of Kashgar Old City and the traditional courtyards of Gaotai Residences. The itinerary balances natural wonders and cultural visits, with a relaxed pace, avoiding the fatigue of frequent transfers and luggage handling.
Current inquiries (early 2027) show that scenic areas throughout Xinjiang are open normally, major attractions have sufficient reception capacity, and transportation infrastructure is well developed. Train operations rely on the existing railway network and road connection system, providing high itinerary stability. However, please note that due to weather, temporary traffic control, or changes in scenic area policies, the actual visiting order or stay duration may be reasonably optimized after consultation between the travel agency and tourists.
