First, let’s take a look at the configuration of this train. Although it is an ordinary green train, its configuration is comparable to a luxury hotel. The romantic bar on the train is open until late at night, the Xinjiang-style restaurant offers a dazzling array of cuisine, there is a KTV for singing to your heart’s content, afternoon tea, a cinema, and piano performances. The entire train adopts luxurious European-style decoration, making it a mobile five-star hotel!
The Gold Diamond room has a luxurious king-size bed, private bathroom, oversized storage cabinets, a business desk, etc. The Blue Diamond compartment accommodates four people in one compartment, with a 70cm upper bunk and a 90cm lower bunk, which is very comfortable. The temperature and humidity inside the train are constant, and the air conditioning is diffuse, providing a very comfortable feeling. The windows are also very wide, belonging to the landscape carriage design. To ensure everyone’s water supply, the train will immediately add water when it stops to ensure no conflict in using water for bathing. The government also attaches importance to high-end trains, with VIP channels for entering and exiting stations to reduce bumps and save time. At the same time, the New Oriental Express adopts a day-night format, effectively overcoming the shortcomings of long city mature times and long daytime travel times.
The New Oriental Express only has 134 passengers, but there are 50 attendants. In other words, one service personnel is assigned for every two or three passengers. This is absolutely top-notch service. Airlines known for their excellent service need one service personnel for every few dozen people. It can be said that the New Oriental Express is unique in terms of decoration, configuration, travel routes, and its once glorious and honored mission. This luxurious train is now open to domestic tourists.
Let’s turn our gaze outside the train and talk about the journey and scenery along the way of this train. The New Oriental Express travels in Southern Xinjiang, Northern Xinjiang, and across the north and south of Xinjiang. The long journey can reach 14 days, with a per capita starting price of 30,000 yuan. Along the way, grasslands, deserts, snowy mountains, lakes, and the ancient Silk Road are all in full view. But considering the luxurious decoration and beautiful scenery, do you think it seems worth the price! The Oriental Express was originally a long-distance train in Europe, mainly from Paris to Istanbul, and it was also one of the foreign travel modes commonly used by European aristocracy. It was deeply sought after by wealthy businessmen and nobles! In China, the Oriental Express, which previously only accommodated foreign guests, underwent a new upgrade in 2021. Compared with the original Oriental Express carriage, the new carriage has greatly improved sealing, stability, and shock absorption, and is equipped with oversized glass viewing windows. The train currently has China’s largest shower cabins. The shower room is separated into wet and dry areas, using advanced partition material design. Ceramic toilets are exclusively used throughout the train. Each room has an air volume adjustment switch, and each bedside has a USB port and a 5-pin socket.
The New Oriental Express Supreme Honor Tour was carefully crafted by experts with 30 years of inbound tourism experience, taking 10 months and over 80,000 kilometers of field research. After dozens of exchanges and discussions with colleagues from around the world, six major tourism elements of "eating, living, transportation, tourism, shopping, and entertainment" were strictly selected, striving for the best combination of route arrangement and customer comfort.
