The “Snow Country Train” special train is the “star product” of Xinjiang winter tourism in 2026, designed specifically for in-depth experience of Northern Xinjiang’s ice and snow scenery. The train features panoramic glass carriages as its core, paired with warm viewing cabins and distinctive dining areas, like a moving ice and snow castle.
