Autumn (September-October):The forests are ablaze with colors, golden birch trees intertwine with green pine trees, and the morning mist envelops Hemu Village, a paradise for photography enthusiasts.
Winter (November-March of the following year):Covered in snow, Kanas Lake freezes over, and rime ice wonders frequently appear. Visitors can experience ice and snow activities such as horse-drawn sleighs and snowmobiles.
Key attractions include:
Kanas Lake:At an altitude of 1,374 meters and covering an area of 45.73 square kilometers, the crescent-shaped lake offers boat tours or a panoramic view from Guanyu Platform.
