Silk Road Dream Train: The Destination is the Train

Silk Road Dream Train: If I hadn't taken it myself, I would have thought it only existed in movies. The train recently launched a 2-day, 1-night China Carnival micro-vacation series, departing from Beijing to Beidaihe and back on the 21st. I decided to go. The train is the destination, with food, drinks, entertainment, and 5-star hotel service. Travel: I boarded at Beijing Fengtai Station. It was the holiday season, and the train was decorated inside and out to create a festive atmosphere. Before boarding, staff lined up to welcome us on the red carpet, and a welcome drink put me in vacation mode. Room: The train has twin rooms, double rooms, family rooms, and suites. You can choose a room according to your needs. Each room has a private butler who will introduce the room and train facilities to you. You can call them 24/7. The room is worth mentioning. The mini bar is stocked with drinks and snacks. After dinner, the bed is made, and fruit, milk, and sleep-inducing aromatherapy are prepared. The bathroom is even more impressive, with a smart toilet, Dyson hair dryer, and THG Paris West Coast shower equipment. It's luxurious and high-end! The train provides ASOPE hand soap and body lotion and MARVIS toothpaste. The train puts the best in your room! Food: The 2-day, 1-night trip includes afternoon tea after boarding at 3 pm. The sun shines on the train, and all the tableware is pure silver from the 17th to 20th centuries. The sunlight sparkles on it. Eating macarons and drinking coffee is a delight. Dinner is prepared by Michelin-starred chefs and 5-star hotel chefs. Whether Chinese or Western, the food is high quality. You can see the chefs cooking. Before dinner ends, the staff will ask you to choose between Chinese noodles with Cantonese dim sum or Western cereal with eggs Benedict for breakfast. The train has a bar where you can try various cocktails. Entertainment: At night, the train staff performs at a cocktail party. You can watch movies, sing karaoke, smoke cigars, or play cards in the multifunctional hall. There are many places to take photos on the train. Bring your clothes and have fun! This is a micro-vacation route. There are longer routes to Southern Xinjiang and Qinghai-Gansu, where you can see the beautiful scenery of China.
