🚂 2027 New Oriental Express “Snow Lotus”：A mobile luxury journey across the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains
On the vast land of Xinjiang, from the foothills of the Altai Mountains to the Pamir Plateau, from the Junggar Basin to the Tarim Oasis, nature and culture weave together into a breathtaking picture. Riding the New Oriental Express “Snow Lotus,” known as a “land cruise ship,” is becoming the way more and more travelers deeply experience this land—not hurried sightseeing, but immersing themselves in a 14-day, 13-night panoramic journey with a relaxed pace, private space, and full-time butler service.
This special train is not an ordinary train, but a high-end tourist train that has undergone professional renovation. The carriages are equipped with private bathrooms, viewing windows, and constant-temperature air conditioning systems, as well as onboard chefs, medical staff, and multilingual service personnel. After each day’s itinerary ends, travelers do not need to move luggage or change hotels; they simply return to their own “mobile suite” and fall asleep peacefully under the stars, and by the next morning they are already in another landscape.
📍 Route highlights:A closed-loop journey through the essence of Xinjiang in one trip
This route is designed as a loop, starting and ending in Urumqi, covering core scenic areas throughout the journey including Kanas Lake, Hemu Village, and the Altai grasslands in northern Xinjiang; Sayram Lake, the Ili River Valley, and Nalati in central Xinjiang; Bayanbulak, the Duku Highway, and Kashgar Old City in southern Xinjiang; and Turpan in eastern Xinjiang. Particularly noteworthy is that the itinerary cleverly avoids the fatigue of frequent transfers typical of regular bus tours. By combining rail travel with short-distance connections, it ensures comfort while also reaching hidden places accessible by road.
Currently (2027), this route is organized and operated by a qualified travel agency. The train formation strictly controls passenger capacity, striving to ensure each traveler enjoys spacious space and personalized service. Scenic areas along the way are reasonably arranged according to seasonal opening conditions. For example, from June to September, when the grasslands are lush, the lakes are clear, and the climate is pleasant, it is an excellent travel window throughout the year.
It should be noted that due to force majeure factors such as weather, traffic control, or temporary changes to scenic areas, the actual order of visits may be reasonably optimized on the premise of mutual agreement between both parties, but the core attractions and overall pace will strictly follow the itinerary framework.
