If you are planning a comfortable, worry-free, and in-depth trip to Xinjiang, you may have heard of the “New Oriental Express Xuelian” luxury tourist train, hailed as a “mobile five-star hotel.” One of the questions many tourists care most about is: Does every compartment on the entire train have a private bathroom?
The answer is:✅ Yes, with the fully upgraded 2026 Xuelian train, all compartments on the entire train are equipped with bathrooms, featuring wet-dry separation and 24-hour hot water supply. Whether it’s the Zungui Gold Diamond, Xiyue Gold Diamond, or Boyue Gold Diamond room types, all achieve “one room, one bathroom,” completely eliminating the inconvenience of queuing for washing up and using the toilet in traditional train travel.

The New Oriental Express Xuelian connects Xinjiang’s most representative natural and cultural landscapes. In northern Xinjiang, Kanas Lake is a picturesque wonder, Hemu Village is shrouded in morning mist, and Sayram Lake is as blue as a mirror; in southern Xinjiang, the Pamir Plateau is majestic and vast, Baisha Lake reflects Muztagh Ata Peak, and the ancient city of Kashgar is full of vibrant local life. The Duku Highway runs through the Tianshan Mountains, offering four seasons in one day; at the edge of the Taklamakan Desert, Ruoqiang and Hotan hide the legends of Loulan culture and jade.
The 2026 itinerary balances pace and depth, adopting a “travel by night, sightsee by day” model – exploring scenic areas during the day and sleeping soundly on the smoothly running train at night, with no need to move luggage, making the entire journey relaxed and hassle-free. It is especially suitable for family trips, senior travelers, or those sensitive to long-distance bus rides.
