The Southern Express Baiyun (南方列车·白云号) set out from Guangzhou Baiyun Station on 25 August 2026. It is run by Guangzhou Southern Train International Travel together with China Railway Guangzhou Group, and is billed as China’s first tourist train themed on a traditional scholarly family.
Its designers began with Yuelu Academy, founded in 976 on the banks of the Xiang River, and the four steps of visiting a scholar’s household: arriving at the gate, entering the courtyard, strolling the garden and retiring for the night. The train follows the same order through four spaces, so that boarding feels less like taking a seat and more like being received as a guest.
南方列车·白云号于2026年8月25日自广州白云站启航,由广州南方列车国际旅行社联合中国铁路广州局集团运营,号称全国首列中式书香门第品质型旅游列车。北宋开宝九年,岳麓书院扎根湘江;登门、入院、游园、居寝四重礼序,一进一境。列车复刻世家仪轨,划分四大空间:不是乘车,是入画。
Nights on the train, days on the ground · 夜宿列车,日间游览The train carries you between regions by night and on the long legs; by day you explore with your guide, and some nights are spent in hotels and lodges along the way. Both journeys are land tours from Guangzhou.夜间及长途路段由列车载您穿越不同地区;白天随导游下车游览,部分夜晚入住沿途酒店与民宿。两段行程均为广州出发的地面行程。


闲庭
You board through a four-gate welcome hall, the way a scholarly household received its guests: sliding lattice doors, a skylight-style ceiling that lets in soft light, and a landscape centrepiece. Beyond it are tea seats by the windows, game tables that rearrange themselves and a small stage for evening song and dance.
四门迎宾,复刻书香世家待客仪轨:推拉趟栊尽显门第清雅,天井式穹顶引入柔和天光,正中设山水中堂造景。其后有凭窗茶席、随心组合的弈阵雅席,以及夜间歌舞演艺的闲庭雅筑。
- Four-gate welcome of a family mansion复刻传统大宅四门迎宾礼制
- Skylight-style ceiling天井式穹顶引入天光
- Landscape centrepiece正中山水中堂造景


清欢
Forty-eight seats beneath a ceiling shaped like the wok-ear gables of Lingnan houses, with timber brackets joined the old way and a white jade inlay on the central beam. Courses are served one by one in the Chinese manner, on gilded Liling porcelain, with Cantonese and Hunanese cooking and dishes from the regions along the line.
可容纳48人同时就餐。吊顶取岭南镬耳官帽之形,木构斗拱榫卯还原古建工艺,月梁正中嵌饰白玉。承袭中式分餐古礼,醴陵鎏金瓷器盛装粤湘融合风味与沿途地域美食,一席一礼。

观澜
Modelled on the Aiwan Pavilion at Yuelu Academy, the observation car frames the land outside in windows that wrap 270 degrees. There is a bar for wines and Chinese spirits, a lounge for tea and conversation, two card rooms and a corner for hands-on heritage crafts.
复刻岳麓爱晚亭游园意境,270度全景花窗画框,将窗外山河收入一卷。设观澜雅酌国风酒肆、会客品茗雅集、石径与霜叶两间棋牌雅室,以及非遗手作体验区。

安居
When the painter Zong Bing grew too old to travel, he painted mountains and rivers on his walls and called it “travelling while lying down”. The cabins borrow the idea: a framed window onto the landscape, carved timber, a small tea corner and your own bathroom, so the journey goes on while you rest.
古人宗炳晚年无法远行,绘山水于壁,谓之“卧游”。今于车中,推窗即山河:木刻纹样、方寸茶席与独立卫浴,安居其间,旅途在休憩中继续。
