Explore the Secrets of Kalajun in Ili:In-depth Experience of the Human Body Grassland Special Route from June to August
Kalajun Human Body Grassland:A Fantastic Interweaving of Nature and Light and Shadow
Kalajun Grassland, located in Tekes County, Ili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang, is hailed as a “high-quality three-dimensional grassland.” It is renowned not only for its magnificent combination of snow-capped mountains, flower seas, and canyons but also for its unique “human body grassland” landscape—under the slanting sunlight of the setting sun, the undulating grassy slopes resemble the gentle curves of the human body, and the interplay of light and shadow makes it seem as if the earth is breathing. Every year from June to August, the grassland enters its prime viewing period: wildflowers blanket the fields from May to June, lush green grass prevails from July to August, and by September, it transforms into a golden autumn画卷 (scroll/painting, here meaning picturesque scene). It is a paradise for photography enthusiasts and nature explorers.
