The story of China and Orient Express began at 1985. 1985, Russia was the first to drive the Orient Express to China. At that time, the Russian luxury train passed through Mongolia, drove to Erenhot Port, and then changed into carriages in China, bound for the destination in China. Since then, luxury trains operated by some western European countries can enter any city in China through this "transfer" mode.
