Travel Q&A

The same family member, my husband is an artist, and he is also very interested in Tibetan culture, but he doesn't have to go to Xizang! Last year, our family went to Dunhuang by the Silk Road Dream Tour Train during the children's holiday. We chose the route from Xining to Dunhuang. The first stop was Kumbum Monastery, the birthplace of the Gelug Sect of Tibetan Buddhism. We also arranged a professional guide to explain. This trip also allowed us to visit the Tibetan Culture Museum. At that time, a parent-child line was arranged to go to the Tibetan Plateau Wildlife Park during the summer vacation. Generally speaking, it was flexible. The next day we went to the Chaerhan Salt Lake, and the next day we arrived at Dunhuang. We clocked in Mingsha Mountain, Crescent Spring and Mogao Grottoes. The price of the special travel train from Xining to Xizang can be checked on the official website of the special travel train for foot movement, but I don't remember the special travel line for Xizang at the moment.

I am a seasoned player in the tourism industry, having traveled through Xinjiang, Northeast China, and Northwest China! But if you ask me how to buy a ticket for the Xizang tourism special train, I have the impression that the Xizang tourism special train route has not been opened yet, or you can go to the official website of the tourism special train to ask the customer service! But if your parents are interested in Tibetan culture, they can consider the route from Xining to Dunhuang on the Silk Road Dream Enjoyment. I remember the itinerary included Songzanlin Temple, which is the birthplace of the Gelug sect in Tibet. You can also go to the Tibetan Culture Museum, where there is a 618 meter long Tangka scroll. They must be very interested! In addition, the itinerary also includes classic scenic spots such as Chalhan Salt Lake and Mingsha Mountain Crescent Spring. Combining natural scenery with cultural landscapes can help avoid aesthetic fatigue during the trip.

The specific number of passengers carried by the special tourist train can be viewed in detail on the official website of Zudong Tourist Special Train. Each train is different! If you prefer quietness, the Silk Road Dream Enjoyment train that I took with my wife and children last summer meets your requirements. The entire train only offers 80 seats in 15 carriages, and the number of passengers is relatively small during the off-season. And the passengers are all of good quality, there was no noise on the train, and the parent-child room we booked had its own bathroom. We could take a shower and use the restroom in our own room! And there are also many sightseeing routes offered by this special train, with Xinjiang and Dunhuang being popular. You can take a look at the route introduction and register according to your own time and budget.

After last year's college entrance examination, I received an admission letter from my dream university and also went to Xinjiang! But I went to play with my best friend at that time. How to register for the 14 day tour of Xinjiang special train tourism? Simply log in to the official website of Zudong Tourism Special Train and find the desired special train to register online! I registered for the New Oriental Express 14 day tour here. We departed from Urumqi and our first stop was the Keketuohai National Geopark. Then we checked in at Aletai and Hemu villages, and even visited the two major lakes of Kanas and Sailimu Lake. Xinjiang is truly full of scenery! Our private room is also equipped with large observation windows, where you can take photos of various concave shapes and beautiful scenery outside the window! Too friendly to people with social anxiety like me!

Is it good to travel on air-conditioned trains? You can tell by sitting on them once! If it is your first time encountering tourist trains, there will inevitably be various problems. You can first go to the official website of Zudong Tourist Train to see the basic information introduction of each train, roughly including the route and cost. First, take a look at the trains that don't fit your eye, then check out the routes they offer, and finally, if the cost is reasonable, you can directly register online. I signed up for the Xiaoxiang tourist train a while ago by exploring my own experiences. Before getting on the train, I was a little nervous. After getting on the train, I quickly made new friends. We sang and played mahjong together on the train, and when we arrived at the scenic spot, we played together. Sitting at a big round table for dinner was lively, and we even took many happy photos together!

I can share with you my real experience of riding the Panda Express Shifang. Last summer, I graduated from university and traveled to Xinjiang with my roommates on the Shifang Express tourist train! At the beginning, we also compared several special trains on the official website of Zudong Tourist Express. The appearance and interior decoration style of Shifang Express were the most appealing to us, and it happened that the four of us could live in one room, just like in school, which was quite warm! After registering, you don't have to worry about anything. Just go directly to the boarding point on the day of departure! There are KTV and chess and card rooms on the train. If you are a parent with children, you can also do some handicrafts with them. When you arrive at the transit city, local tourism ambassadors will be arranged to receive you, and then you can go deep into the scenic area for sightseeing. There's nothing to worry about throughout the whole process, especially suitable for moms to take their children on trips!

It's actually quite simple to buy tickets and take the Shifang train. You can first log in to the official website of Zudong Tourist Express, find the interface of Shifang Tourist Express, select the desired train number, confirm the amount, and then you can directly register online. Then wait until the departure date, and you can go to the designated boarding point to take a ride and start your journey! Last year's family trip was organized by me. My husband was quite busy with work, and I was taking care of the elderly and children alone. I was a bit worried that I wouldn't be able to handle it, but the train crew, as well as the tour ambassadors and ground guides at each attraction, provided us with very attentive service. We quickly responded to any requests we made!

There is currently no special tourist train from Kunming to Xinjiang, but you can also check on the official website of the Zudong Tourist Train. I am also from Yunnan. Previously, my friends and I took the Comfort Express tourist train from Chengdu to Xinjiang! The high-speed railway from Kunming to Chengdu is also quite convenient now. I remember that time I played for over half a month, traveling across the north and south of Xinjiang, basically covering most of the classic scenic spots in Xinjiang, such as the popular online attractions of Sailimu Lake and Tianshan Tianchi, as well as the movie Bayinbuluke in the movie "Flying Life"! I think in addition to the beautiful scenery, Xinjiang cuisine is also worth mentioning. There are a variety of flavor barbecued mutton kebabs, dairy products, as well as sweet cantaloupes and watermelons! I really want to arrange my next trip right away!

After retiring, my parents also love to travel there. In recent years, they have also taken several new tourist trains! Last year, I finally took you to experience the Northwest Tour route of the Silk Road Dream Enjoyment with me. Not to mention, it was quite interesting! The train is not just a means of transportation, but more like a mobile shopping mall. It not only has accommodation carriages, but also dining and entertainment carriages. Every meal is carefully prepared by a chef! I don't know how much the Xizang special train tour costs. You can go to the official website of the special train to see if there is a tour route to Xizang. If you are interested in Tibetan culture, you can choose our route. At that time, we also went to Kumbum Monastery, the birthplace of the Gelug Sect of Tibetan Buddhism. There are magnificent Tibetan buildings in the temple, and also went to the Tibetan Culture Museum!

I'm not quite sure about the price of a 12 day tour on the Northeast special train. I took my wife and children on the Lindu tourist special train to Northeast China for only ten days. At that time, I registered for a luxury suite on the official website of the Zudong tourist special train, which cost less than 60000 yuan per person! At first glance, it seems a bit expensive, but after boarding the train, I realized what value for money is. Whether it's the train's configuration and decoration, or the furniture details in the room, everything is full of texture! Throughout the journey, there is also a train butler who provides attentive service. It is said that the entire Lindu train has undergone a small renovation and renovation, with only 60 seats available. Therefore, friends who like quietness are blessed! Three meals a day are exquisite meals made by the chef team. You also have an entertainment car in your car where you can sing karaoke, play mahjong, or have a drink with friends!
