🚂 Lie down and travel across the Western Regions, slow-touring the full panorama of Xinjiang in 18 days — the brand-new experience of the “Xiaoxiang Hao” special train
Tired of self-driving exhaustion, transfer hassles, and lugging luggage around? In 2026, a tourist special train blending Hunan culture with Western Regions scenery — the New Southern Express · Xiaoxiang Hao — is redefining Xinjiang travel with a “mobile hotel + in-depth slow travel” approach. It is not an ordinary train but a comfortable residence moving on rails, letting you sleep against the scenery and return with stories.
🌄 Route highlights:One train covering the essence of both northern and southern Xinjiang
The “Xiaoxiang Hao” special train spans three major regions — eastern Xinjiang, northern Xinjiang, and southern Xinjiang — with an 18-day itinerary covering core Xinjiang attractions including Hami Devil City, Tianshan Tianchi, Kanas, Hemu, Sayram Lake, Nalati Grassland, Bayanbulak, Pamir Plateau, Kashgar Old City, and Lop Nur Village. From Yardang landforms to snow-capped mountains and lakes, from grassland wetlands to desert oases, there is no need for frequent transfers throughout the journey — luggage is stored once, and the pace is relaxed and unhurried.
The carriage interiors incorporate elements such as Hunan embroidery, phoenix patterns, and Hunan culinary culture, featuring an intangible cultural heritage handicraft experience area and a tea art corner. Regular activities during the journey include red song sing-alongs and Hunan cuisine tastings, creating a “mobile cultural living room.” The train is equipped with air conditioning and constant temperature systems, plus upgraded shock-absorption technology in 2026, making it especially suitable for middle-aged and elderly travelers and those who value comfort.
