🌳 [Core landscapes and cultural features of the route]
Recent on-site visits in 2026 show that the Southern Xinjiang region has formed a tourism pattern of “travelable in all four seasons.” In spring (April-May), wildflowers blanket the grasslands of Beitun; in summer (June-August), Sayram Lake is as blue as a mirror; in autumn (September-October), the forests of Kanas are dyed in layers of color; in winter (November-March), the ancient city of Kashgar is covered in silver. This route specially designs “reverse-season play,” for example avoiding congestion on the Duku Highway in May and enjoying the poplar forests off-peak in October, allowing visitors to experience unique scenery in different periods.
📍 Geographic advantages:
The train departs from Chengdu/Lanzhou, enters Xinjiang along the Lanzhou-Xinjiang Railway, passes through Beitun, Burqin, Ili, Aksu, and other places, and finally arrives in Kashgar. The entire route covers the forests and lakes of Northern Xinjiang and the desert ancient cities of Southern Xinjiang, creating a contrasting experience of “half landscape, half city.” Data from the transportation department in 2026 shows that this route has achieved optimized “depart at dusk, arrive at dawn” train schedules, allowing tourists to cross thousands of miles while sleeping.

🌟 [Route designer’s note]
Wang Fei, manager of Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Agency, is a native of Xinjiang who has been deeply engaged in Xinjiang’s tourism industry for more than ten years. She has traveled to every scenic spot north and south of the Tianshan Mountains and is thoroughly familiar with the full routes, road conditions and weather, and local customs of Northern and Southern Xinjiang.
“The biggest highlight of this route is the ‘combination of activity and stillness,'” Wang Fei introduced. “During the day, hike in Kanas and cycle around Sayram Lake; at night, return to the train and enjoy five-star service. We specially designed ‘reverse-season play,’ such as avoiding the tourist crowds on the Duku Highway in May and enjoying the poplar forests off-peak in October. In 2026, we also added interactive projects such as the Jiaohe Ancient City concert and Ancient City Treasure Hunt, making the journey more participatory.”
As a travel agency adhering to the principle of “no shopping stops arranged throughout the itinerary,” Wang Fei emphasized: “We do not do assembly-line itineraries; each departure will be changed according to seasonal characteristics. For example, for the October 2 departure, considering possible snow on the southern section of the Duku Highway, we changed it to a combined route of ‘middle section + southern section,’ which is both thoughtful and allows different landscapes to be seen. All arrangements prioritize the tourist experience first.”
