Why are more Chinese traveling by tourist train?
As China's railway network expands and upgrades, tourist trains have become an activity in their own right, showing that the journey really can be the destination!
One outstanding advantage is that tourists only need to buy one ticket for the whole journey, saving transfer time, and money as they package transportation and accommodation together.
Lavish services such as bars and KTV lounges, as well as local cuisine, and costumes, are attractive to all generations.
Gone are the days of chugging along, as high-speed rail offers a fast and safe way to travel.
