Over the next three days, we’ll travel from Xining to Dunhuang, climbing to over 9,000 feet above sea level before crossing the Gobi Desert. I’m staying in the train’s most opulent accommodation: the Grand Suite. This massive 22m² room comes complete with a private living area, a super king bed, and a designer bathroom with freestanding bath! I’ll be trying Silk Road inspired fine dining, exploring every unique carriage onboard (including the private Karaoke room and observation car), and seeing whether this new luxury sleeper train deserves to be ranked among the world’s greatest rail experiences! As usual, this trip is entirely self funded so I can provide a completely unbiased and honest review. 0:00 - Intro 02:25 - Grand Suite 06:45 - Feast Hall Dinner 08:23 - Star Palace Lounge 11:05 - 9,000ft Above Sea Level 13:33 - Observation Car 15:05 - Country Dining Car 18:41 - Cost
