Multiple room types are available: 2-person, 3-person, and 4-person cabins, with bathrooms, soundproofing and noise-reduction technology, a multi-function entertainment car (karaoke, chess and cards, reception all available), and a professional chef team traveling along… Whether it’s a family trip, traveling with friends, or a slow journey for seniors, everyone can find a travel pace that suits them.
What’s more special is that this special train is designed specifically for Xinjiang’s geographical features: a 17-day North and South Xinjiang Duku version itinerary, connecting the heat of Turpan, the ruggedness of the Pamir Plateau, the mystery of Kanas, and the soft beauty of Ili, and also incorporating the essential section of the Duku Highway, “China’s most beautiful highway.” The new 2026 departure dates cover spring, summer, and autumn, avoiding the winter traffic control period, allowing tourists to experience the superb scenery of “four seasons in one day, different weather every ten miles.”
