Preface
When it comes to travel, everyone is inseparable from trains, planes, high-speed rail, ships, and so on.
And there is such a train, known as a "mobile five-star hotel", which costs tens of thousands of yuan for a ride.
I thought it might be an "IQ tax", but the ticket was robbed like crazy, and it is said that even if you have money, you may not be able to get it, what kind of magical train is this?
How amazing is this car?
This is known as the "most luxurious train" in Urumqi and has been around for decades.
Some people say that they have never heard of this car, because it was originally intended for foreign tourists.
Perhaps at that time, it was to make it more convenient for foreign tourists to experience the scenery and food of Xinjiang, China, so that this car was created.
But good things can't just be close to "outsiders", we also want our own people, so there are also domestic tourists behind this car.
This luxury train is called the "New Oriental Express", and as long as you get on this train, you will enjoy an exquisite journey to Xinjiang.
Some people may think that it is too exaggerated, just a car, at most open the curtains to see the scenery, how much can you enjoy?
This is not an ordinary car, and the "New Oriental Train" cost a lot of money when it was built, so the decoration and service inside are not at all comparable to ordinary trains.
You've ever seen a car with a plush bed, and it feels like staying in a hotel where you can wash up and have fun at will.
There are even entertainment facilities inside, eating, singing, and watching performances?
Some people don't believe in evil, and the train can still hold so many things? Besides, it's not cost-effective to sit for a while, stay for one night and leave.
This car is really not ordinary, you must not compare it to an ordinary train, because it is more like a "luxury version of a multi-person touring car".
Usually the train gets off when it arrives at the place, and then you have to wait for it to depart if you want to get on the train again.
And the "New Oriental Train" will take you directly through the whole journey, basically half a month as soon as it opens.
Especially the most beautiful time in Xinjiang is at the end of the year, when winter is coming, heavy snow is flying, very romantic.
Some people will spend New Year's Eve in the car with their partner or family members to feel a different "New Year's atmosphere".
The frequency of departures will be higher in winter, after all, many things are not "fine" or "more".
Instead of driving at other times that are not good, it is better to choose the best time to drive a few times, so that the experience can be full.
At the end of the year, there are still activities in the car, such as Christmas parties and New Year's carnivals.
Because Kashgar in southern Xinjiang will hold a New Year's Eve party at the end of the year, the car has also been "linked" with Xinjiang on New Year's Eve.
Many people lined up to buy tickets just to buy this train and experience how the people of Xinjiang "New Year's Eve".
Xinjiang people are well-known for their ability to sing and dance, and the characteristic national costumes and scenery there, as well as the form of performances, are all eye-catching.
How luxurious is it?
Some people are still curious about what the interior of this car is like, is it as "luxurious" as the legend says?
It can be said that if you don't sit in this car once, you may not be able to imagine it, after all, it has the reputation of "mobile five-star hotel".
Although this "New Oriental Express" belongs to a "train", it can only accommodate dozens of people.
The cars are all arranged as "suites", with bathrooms and showers, and even a "personal butler".
If you are hungry, you can eat fruit, if you are thirsty, you can drink mineral water or tea, and you can also go to the food truck to order food.
Some people are here to experience life, and you can also taste wine here, because it has a "bar", don't you believe it?
But that's not all, the long journey is also complete with music, when you can sing songs and listen to lectures.
All in all, the tour is equipped with a lot of activities that will never let you get bored.
At night, you rest in the suite, and the service staff will automatically help you clean it during the day, and at night it will be a new room.
This type of service, in fact, is really like staying in a hotel, there are food, drink, people cleaning, and you can find a waiter to solve the trouble.
But this is more advanced than the hotel, because it has prepared a lot of programs and performances related to Xinjiang.
And you don't have to worry about taking a boxed lunch to send you away, they have hundreds of dishes to choose from, all of which are specialty dishes.
Basically, the main meal is six dishes and one soup, which is very rich.
Many people have encountered forced shopping when they go out to travel, or it is very expensive to eat next to the attractions, but this train has all been wrapped for you.
Having said all this, it is estimated that some people still don't know the price, and not all trains are "top-of-the-line", but also "ordinary".
But the lowest one will cost more than 30,000 yuan, and 30,000 yuan is a four-person room, but generally only two people will live, unless you drag your family with you.
The car is soundproofed, you can sing and chat with your family in it, and there is even a table, but this one does not have a separate bathroom.
If you want to say the top configuration, it is the "Golden Diamond Carriage" worth more than 40,000 yuan, which has a huge double bed.
You can watch TV, work, and even have a wardrobe, a separate bathroom, and if you have something, you can press the "official bell" and someone will solve the problem for you immediately.
Of course, in addition to family and friends, some people are "going in groups", and at this time, there is also the "Silver Diamond Presidential Business Carriage".
This carriage can meet the needs of 12 people to travel, if it happens to meet the company's team building, everyone can carnival, sing and play cards.
Because there are sofas, conference tables, and stereos inside, I don't know if there will be any "fairy boss" who will take employees on a tour.
How can I sit on it?
In fact, this car is similar to everyone who usually goes home to buy tickets, that is, find the official channel of the railway bureau on the Internet, and order it.
Because it is very expensive, it is a deposit in advance, unlike some tickets that you have to pay in full to buy.
Its sales time is not the "15 days in advance" that everyone usually sees, it will start very early, and those who want to sit must pay attention to the news.
Then, as long as you pay the money a month before the start of the trip, you can sit back and wait for the notice to start your trip.
Before the start of this trip, everyone will meet in Urumqi, and then someone will arrange your accommodation.
After that, just enjoy the food and the scenery, and don't do anything else.
The scenery characteristics of southern and northern Xinjiang are also different, and the train will pass through Tianchi, Keketuohai, Stone Town, Karez and other places.
You can experience the beautiful scenery by going alone, but it is recommended to go with family and friends, so that the happiness will be doubled.
Tianshan Tianchi is a must-visit resort in Xinjiang, which is worthy of being a 5A-level scenic spot, with the same color of sea and sky, taking you to appreciate the beauty of nature.
The scenic spots of Tianshan Tianchi have small Tianchi, Dengpole Mountain, Tianchi North Slope Tourist Area, Liquan Cave and so on.
And there will be no tourism "ripping off" here, the price is fair and affordable, and it has always been one of the first choices for everyone to travel.
The prairies of Xinjiang are also not to be missed, Nalati grassland, Bayinbrook grassland, you can see herds of cattle and sheep.
The Nalati Tourist Scenic Area is located in the east of the Ili River Valley, which is inhabited by Kazakh people.
The natural environment is very good, because there is little human activity, so there are a lot of wild animals and plants.
Nature lovers should not miss this place.
There are also many lakes in Xinjiang, as well as various natural landscapes, which are very spectacular, such as the mysterious Grand Canyon of the Tianshan Mountains and the Kizil Grottoes.
Among them, the Kizil Grottoes are also called Kizil Thousand Buddha Caves, which have murals left over from history.
Some people only know the "Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes" when it comes to murals, but this place also has the reputation of "China's second Dunhuang".
epilogue
The price of this train is indeed quite expensive for the average person, but it is also a great value for money.
Tourists can not only experience a beautiful trip to Xinjiang, but also feel different customs and folk customs.
Of course, many things have to be done within your means, and if you feel that there is a problem with the price, it is also a good choice to do your own strategy to play.
