Snow Country Train:The “mobile castle” of Xinjiang winter tourism🚂
Winter in Xinjiang is a fairy-tale world wrapped in silver—Kanas has rime covering the branches, Sayram Lake’s blue ice is crystal clear, and smoke curls from the wooden houses in Hemu Village… But Xinjiang in winter is vast and the attractions are scattered. How can you travel easily? The answer lies in the “Snow Country Train” tourism special train! This train, designed specifically for winter, uses the unique approach of “the train follows the people, the scenery moves with the train” to connect the essential attractions of northern Xinjiang, allowing tourists to cross the snowy plains in warm compartments and saving the trouble of frequent transfers. It can truly be called a “mobile resort hotel.”
Why choose the Snow Country Train? 🔍
Core advantages:Saves time and effort, high comfort
In winter, some road sections in Xinjiang have deep snow, and self-driving or public transportation is easily affected by weather. The special train, however, operates on customized tracks, is less disturbed by weather, and is staffed throughout by a professional crew, ensuring safety and comfort. The four-person compartment design better meets the needs of families or friends traveling together. Facilities such as a bathroom, large viewing windows, and constant-temperature air conditioning let you enjoy the warmth of “home” even on long journeys.
In-depth experience integrating culture and nature
The special train itinerary covers classic attractions in northern Xinjiang such as Kanas, Hemu, Sayram Lake, and Urho Ghost City, while also incorporating the winter folk cultures of various ethnic groups—experiencing Tuvan horse-drawn sledges in Burqin, tasting steaming hot Xibe flatbread in Yining, and participating in interactive performances by singers of various ethnic groups on the train… making the journey not just about seeing scenery, but also an immersive experience of the winter customs of the Western Regions.

Manager Wang Fei’s thoughtful tips💡
“Winter temperatures in Xinjiang are low. It is recommended to bring cold-resistant clothing for temperatures below -20°C, especially shoes that are slip-resistant. Although the special train compartment is warm, you need to take good cold-weather precautions when getting off to sightsee. In addition, winter is the off-season for tourism in Xinjiang, with fewer tourists in scenic areas and better photos. However, some smaller attractions may shorten their opening hours, so you need to confirm the latest policies before traveling.”
