🚂 Traveling slowly through Xinjiang aboard the “Kunlun Hao”:A moving scenic route across northern and southern Xinjiang
Have you ever thought that travel doesn’t have to be about rushing — but about scenery at every step? In the summer of 2026, the “Kunlun Hao” tourism special train will carry travelers at its own unique pace, slowly winding through the Tianshan Mountains — from Turpan beneath the Flaming Mountains to the White Sand Lake on the Pamir Plateau; from the ancient Kucha old town with its Qiuci heritage to the lavender fragrance of the Ili River Valley; then heading north to Altay to encounter the morning mist of Kanas and the sunset at the Rainbow Beach. This is not an ordinary train journey — it is a moving, immersive panoramic experience of Xinjiang.
🌄 Route highlights:Why choose the “Kunlun Hao”?
The “Kunlun Hao” is a high-end tourism special train launched by China Railway Urumqi Group in 2023. The entire train has 8 sleeper carriages configured with different room types, balancing comfort and privacy. The soft sleeper compartments are equipped with desks, sofas, or shared washroom facilities, with interiors incorporating traditional Xinjiang patterns and colors — offering modern convenience while retaining regional charm.
Unlike ordinary trains that pass through stations in a hurry, the “Kunlun Hao” is designed specifically for in-depth travel. The itinerary covers the cultural corridor of southern Xinjiang and the natural scenery belt of northern Xinjiang, connecting core destinations such as Turpan, Kucha, Kashgar, Tashkurgan, Bayanbulak, Nalati, Yining, Sayram Lake, Altay, and Kanas. Over 14 days, you don’t need to change hotels or move your luggage — you wake up at the next destination, truly achieving “the train moves with the scenery, and you are in the picture.”
According to the latest operational arrangements from July 2026, this route is in its prime travel season — southern Xinjiang is sunny and dry with little rain, while northern Xinjiang’s grasslands are lush, lakes are crystal clear, the climate is pleasant, scenic areas are fully open, and transportation is smooth.

🌿 Friendly reminders
Xinjiang is vast with large temperature differences between day and night. It is recommended to bring a windproof jacket and sun protection.
Some scenic areas are at high altitudes (such as Tashkurgan and Kanas). Rest appropriately and take precautions against altitude sickness.
Special train seats are limited. For popular departure dates (such as July-August), it is recommended to confirm seats at least 15 days in advance.
All itinerary arrangements comply with national laws and regulations, respect the customs of all ethnic groups, and promote civilized travel.
This 14-day journey is not a check-in rush, but an opportunity for a heartfelt dialogue with the land of Xinjiang. Sitting by the window of the “Kunlun Hao,” watch the Gobi turn into oases, snow-capped mountains connect with lakes, and ancient cities meet grasslands — the scenery flows by, yet the heart gradually settles.
This summer, why not slow down and let the train take you to the distance.
