🚂 Slow Travel Through the Western Regions, Dreaming Amid Mountains and Rivers — The Immersive Living Experience of the Jinxiu Tianfu Special Train
In the fast-paced era of travel, more and more tourists are seeking deep travel experiences that “slow down.” The newly upgraded 2026 Jinxiu Tianfu tourist special train is a “mobile living space” tailor-made for such travelers. It is not just a train, but a movable art museum that integrates the aesthetics of Shu brocade and Song Dynasty charm, Bashu cultural elements, and Xinjiang’s diverse landscapes.
🚆 Train Positioning and Features
The Jinxiu Tianfu is jointly launched by China Railway Chengdu Group and Sichuan Tourism Investment Group, and is one of the few high-quality long-distance tourist special trains in China. The train is designed with the theme of “Shu Brocade and Song Charm,” combining Chinese aesthetics with modern comfort concepts, and focuses on a 16-day, 15-night panoramic slow journey through northern and southern Xinjiang. Adopting the model of “traveling at night, sightseeing during the day,” the entire journey requires no frequent hotel changes or repeated packing and unpacking, truly realizing a living-style experience where “the scenery moves with the train, and the train moves with the scenery.”
The special train departs from Chengdu or Lanzhou, crossing the Tianshan Mountains from north to south, covering core areas such as Kanas, Hemu, and Sayram Lake in northern Xinjiang, and Kashgar, Kuqa, and Turpan in southern Xinjiang. It also cleverly connects the essence section of the Duku Highway (except for the October 2 departure), balancing natural wonders and cultural heritage. The pace is relaxed, making it suitable for families, middle-aged and elderly tourists, and photography enthusiasts who value quality and prefer a leisurely rhythm.
