When it comes to green-skinned trains, does a picture emerge in your mind: lively carriages filled with people from all corners of the country freely chatting in the depths of the night, or the impulse for a spontaneous trip that you can just take and go? Although high-speed trains and bullet trains are now popular due to their speed and convenience, the green-skinned trains filled with China’s green vitality have not faded away but have instead regained new vitality. They are not only a symbol of the lingering "homesickness" in the hearts of travelers but have also become the first choice for tourists pursuing slow-paced travel. In recent years, the Chinese railway department has been creative in launching a series of colorful "slow train" tourist trains, which are diverse in types and routes covering all parts of the country.
The interior of the carriages has been meticulously decorated with a unique scene for each carriage. The soft and hard bedding in each compartment adopts high-quality fabrics, and the hygiene standard of changing the beddings for each passenger during the journey is strictly enforced, aiming to create a peaceful and comfortable resting space for tourists. The bar carriage, dominated by a warm color scheme, is equipped with comfortable sofa seats, a thermostatic wine cabinet, and a small karaoke area. As the saying goes, "Where there is wine, there is song." Tourists in the bar carriage can leisurely taste fine wines while displaying their singing talents and singing to their heart’s content. On such a journey, tourists can not only enjoy the flowing scenery outside the window but also meet new friends from various places and spend wonderful times together.
"Tianshan Express", a dedicated tourist train serving southern and northern Xinjiang, offers a one-stop direct service without the need to change carriages or berths. This train combines the golden routes of both trains and buses, covering the most representative core scenic spots and attractions in Xinjiang. Passengers will visit the magnificent Tian Chi (Heavenly Lake) in the Tianshan Mountains, the northern section of the Duku Highway, stroll in the embrace of the Nalati Grasslands, encounter romantic lavender fields, and meet the serene Sayram Lake, known as the "Pure Sea". In addition, the essence of attractions such as the Mysterious Grand Canyon of Tianshan, Kuche Royal Palace, Shenmu (Divine Tree) Garden, Karakul Lake, Kashgar Old Town, Id Kah Mosque, Desert Viewing Platform, Hetian Round City, Karez Wells, and Flaming Mountain will be presented one by one, allowing passengers to fully appreciate the natural scenery and cultural charm of Xinjiang.
