The design concept of the ‘Tianshan’ tourist train integrates modern technology with unique cultural elements of Xinjiang, aiming to provide passengers with a comfortable and exotic travel space. The entire train has various types of carriages, including: luxury observation carriages, business class cabins, standard sleeper carriages, dining carriages, bars, children’s playground areas, health and leisure areas. Each carriage has a different theme and is carefully designed to meet the needs of different passengers.
Luxury observation carriage
Allows passengers to enjoy spacious seats while not missing any of the fleeting scenery outside the window
Business class cabin
Adopting an independent seat design, each seat can be adjusted to a comfortable resting position, equipped with personal reading lights, charging sockets, and privacy shields, providing an excellent choice for business travelers or those seeking private space.
Standard sleeper
Although it is named ‘standard’, its comfort far exceeds traditional perceptions. Soft mattresses, warm lighting, and personal storage space make long-distance travel feel like a cozy home. Some sleeper carriages also have observation windows, allowing passengers to feel the magnificent beauty of Xinjiang while resting.
Special themed carriages
This is a major highlight of the ‘Tianshan Train’, designed according to the geographical features of Xinjiang, such as ethnic-themed carriages and food experience carriages, allowing passengers to experience the colorful culture and cuisine of Xinjiang on the train.
Heading south all the way to Kashgar, the scenic beauty along the way is breathtaking and can be described as a visual feast.
Tianshan Train booking process and booking precautions
1: As the Tianshan Train is a customized tourism train, it is recommended to book tickets through designated formal travel agency channels such as Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Agency cooperating with the Railway Bureau. It is recommended to call the official booking center of the Tianshan Train and New Oriental Express of Xinjiang Pathfinder International Travel Agency for consultation and booking: 180 95969599
2: The Tianshan Train does not sell train tickets separately and needs to be booked together with tourism products. When booking, ID card information is required, and a unified electronic contract on the National Tourism Supervision Platform must be signed.
3: Determine the specific price based on the travel date and selected route. Prices may vary due to the peak and off-peak seasons of tourism in Xinjiang and different travel dates; choose a suitable travel time and tourism product.
4: Provide your personal name and ID card number to customer service to confirm the departure time and tourism product. Prepay the train ticket deposit, sign the unified electronic contract of the National Tourism Service Supervision, and complete the registration.
As the Tianshan Train is a customized tourism train that operates regularly with only 2 trains per month and 12 trains per year, it is recommended to book in advance to avoid affecting your travel plans. Due to the difficulty in obtaining tickets for the New Oriental Express, based on sales and booking situations in recent years, it is advisable to consult customer service in advance for detailed itinerary arrangements and cost information to better plan your trip.
