22-Hour FULL Journey on the Greatest Sacrifice in China’s Railway History: 2,100 Lives Lost

Step aboard for a total 22-hour unforgettable ride along one of China's most storied railways—the Chengdu Kunming Railway (Chengkun Railway). Our journey begins at the historic Kunming North Railway Station, now transformed into a museum, before we hop on a series of public welfare trains that wind their way toward Emei. This route, once deemed nearly impossible to build, takes us through some of Southwest China's most awe-inspiring terrain, including the dramatic Jinkou Grand Canyon and a web of tunnels and bridges etched into the mountains. Along the way, we stop at timeworn stations, glimpse the vibrant traditions of the Yi people, and watch the landscape shift from urban edges to remote beauty. This railway, completed in 1970, came at a great human cost—more than 2,100 railway soldiers lost their lives in its construction, earning it the haunting tribute: “one loyal soul per kilometer.” Their sacrifice laid the tracks for a lifeline that still connects rural communities today. Join us as we travel from Kunming to Emei—a stretch filled with engineering feats, cultural richness, and quiet moments of connection with a region shaped by steel and spirit.
