Dahe Zhinan special train:A mobile “five-star home” crossing the north and south of Xinjiang 🚂✨
[Train positioning:Redefining the “slowness” and “depth” of Xinjiang travel]
While traditional travel is still struggling with rushing from place to place, the Dahe Zhinan special train has long paved a “moving scenic route” for travelers who pursue quality. This train, designed specifically for in-depth tours of northern and southern Xinjiang, follows a rhythm of “sightseeing by day, traveling by night,” allowing tourists to completely bid farewell to the awkwardness of “sleeping on the bus and taking photos when getting off.” It is not so much a means of transportation as a moving “five-star home”—with bathrooms throughout the train, a multi-functional audio-visual room, a professional chef team, and even a doctor accompanying the group, making long-distance travel as comfortable as home.

Bathroom 2-person room:About 7.2㎡, equipped with a 0.7*1.95 meter double bed, suitable for couples or married couples. The bathroom makes nighttime washing more leisurely, with excellent privacy.

[Boarding points and years of operation:Covering the northwest, service upgraded]
This special train uses Zhengzhou, Luoyang, Xi’an, and Lanzhou as reference boarding points, running through major cities in the northwest and finally arriving in Xinjiang. Since the train was put into operation, its facilities have been upgraded many times. The new 2027 departures continue the standard configuration of “bathrooms throughout the train,” making it one of the few “high-configuration” tourist special trains in the northwest region.
