🚂 Urumqi 2027 New Oriental Express Snow Lotus: A panoramic special train journey across northern and southern Xinjiang, traveling slowly through mountains and rivers
Xinjiang is vast in territory with scattered scenic spots. If you want to see at once the lakes and mountains of northern Xinjiang and the canyons and ancient cities of southern Xinjiang, traditional transportation methods are often time-consuming and laborious. In recent years, the highly anticipated New Oriental Express “Snow Lotus” tourist special train has been providing tourists with a calm, comfortable, and well-paced travel option through its “mobile hotel + in-depth sightseeing” model. Unlike self-driving or regular group tours, this special train integrates accommodation, transportation, tickets, dining, and tour guide services into one. During the day, you get off to visit the highlights; at night, you sleep peacefully in the carriage as it moves forward—truly achieving “the train moves with the scenery, and people travel within a painting.”
According to the currently available 2027 summer schedule, this route covers multiple departure dates from April to September, suitable for travelers at different times. The itinerary spans both sides of the Tianshan Mountains, connecting iconic destinations across northern and southern Xinjiang such as Keketuohai, Hemu, Kanas, Sayram Lake, Nalati Grassland, Bayanbulak, Kuqa Grand Canyon, Baisha Lake, Tashkurgan, Kashgar, and Turpan. It balances natural scenery with cultural experiences, forming a relatively complete panoramic loop route.
📍 Brief highlights of the route
Keketuohai: The Irtysh River winds through granite canyons. In autumn, the forests are dyed in layers of color, with geological wonders and the tranquil river valley complementing each other.
Hemu and Kanas: Known as “nature’s private reserve,” the primitive villages, birch forests, morning mist, and snow-capped mountains create classic northern Xinjiang autumn scenes.

🌤 ️ Travel tips
Xinjiang has large temperature differences between day and night. Even in summer, morning and evening temperatures in mountainous areas are still low, so it is recommended to bring a windproof and warm jacket. UV rays are strong, so sun protection measures are necessary. Some sections of the route are at high altitudes (such as Bayanbulak and the Pamir Plateau); those new to high altitudes should rest appropriately and avoid strenuous exercise. In addition, the opening status of scenic areas and road conditions may be affected by season and weather—please pay attention to announcements from local cultural and tourism authorities before traveling.
The New Oriental Express Snow Lotus special train is based on the concept of “slow travel, deep experience,” suitable for tourists seeking comfort and cultural immersion. The 14-day journey crosses the forests and lakes of northern Xinjiang and delves into the canyons and plateaus of southern Xinjiang, finally returning to Urumqi to conclude the trip, forming a logically clear and gently paced closed-loop route. For travelers who want to avoid the hassle of frequently changing hotels and hauling luggage, it is a travel option worth considering.
