We decided to try the night train back to Beijing. Our train left the Xi’an Train Station at 7:21 pm and arrived in Beijing at 6:58 am. We booked the Deluxe Soft Sleeper compartment. We had our own little room just for the two of us.
In our compartment, we had our own private bathroom that looked like a bathroom on a plane.
There was storage under the bed, and above the door. We both had our own television.
Our cozy compartment also had a soft comfy chair with a table and a small closet.
For a few moments we fantasized about being on the Orient Express.
