The Jinxiu Tianfu is Chengdu's answer to the land-cruise: a 18-car, 46-room train built for the southwest-to-Xinjiang arc, with two distinct cabin tiers and a strong Sichuan hospitality backbone.
The Jinxiu Tianfu boards in Chengdu, with an all-day arrival service that meets your flight or train, takes your large luggage, and walks you to your cabin. Selected 2027 departures also offer boarding in Lanzhou and Urumqi, letting you join the train closer to the Xinjiang highlights. A dedicated attendant looks after each car.
The train carries 46 rooms across two tiers, every one with a private en-suite bathroom:
All rooms have独立 climate control, a safe, USB charging and a writing desk, and the train runs 18 cars carrying up to 92 guests - intimate for a train of this length.
The dining cars lean into Sichuan hospitality: refined regional dishes, afternoon tea, and a rotating menu that follows the route. Premium drinks are included, and dietary notes are confirmed with your attendant at boarding.
Evenings bring cultural programming - Sichuan opera snippets, tea ceremonies and themed gatherings - alongside a lounge and sightseeing areas for watching the landscape slide past. The train carries Wi-Fi so the long hauls between Chengdu and Kashgar stay connected.
Each car has its own attendant, and the operator pairs the train with a qualified tour director and 24-hour steward service. Sealed gangways and close-coupled coaches keep the ride quiet and dust-free through the Xinjiang sections.
