Origin
Rooted in Bashu
A regional story at the beginning
Shu brocade, lacquer craft, the Sun Bird and the panda are distilled into texture, colour and rhythm, forming a distinct identity for GOLDEN PANDA EXPRESS.
Brand Story
A Palace in Motion
Bashu heritage, reimagined through contemporary Eastern hospitality
GOLDEN PANDA EXPRESS draws on Bashu culture and the Eastern art of welcome. Rather than recreating a historic interior, it uses contemporary materials, proportion and function to let culture live naturally within a comfortable rail journey.
The train is more than a way to reach a distant place. It is a moving setting for culture, landscape and human connection.
Design
Contemporary Eastern
Restrained, tactile and warm
Burgundy, walnut and champagne gold establish a composed palette, while cultural references enter through clean and contemporary detail.
Hospitality
A Moving Hotel
Considered living, placed on rails
Private suites, two themed dining carriages and layered public spaces create a complete stay in which movement itself becomes a destination.
