✨ Route Features and Destination Highlights
This An Yi Hao Xinjiang loop itinerary covers five major sections: Northern Xinjiang, the southern section of the Duku Highway, the Pamir Plateau, the Southern Xinjiang cultural area, and the Turpan special landform area. It connects over ten representative scenic spots in Xinjiang, adopting a day-stop, night-travel model to reduce daytime travel fatigue and allow ample time for sightseeing.
The Northern Xinjiang section includes Tianchi Lake with its alpine lake scenery, the primitive village of Hemu, the ever-changing colors of Kanas Lake, and the crystal-clear Sayram Lake. In summer 2026, the grasslands of Northern Xinjiang will green up early; visiting from June to August offers views of vast meadows and blooming wildflowers. Mountain areas have large temperature differences between day and night, so it’s recommended to bring a light windbreaker.
The southern section of the Duku Highway is expected to open from June 1 to October 15, 2026. The second to eighth departures all fall within this period. Travelers can enjoy the changing vertical landscape belts along the road and visit the Tianshan Secret Grand Canyon, which combines grandeur, danger, tranquility, and serenity. Some sections of the canyon are narrow, so wearing non-slip flat shoes is advised.
The Pamir Plateau section features the clear Karakul Lake, the wetland landscape of Golden Grass Beach, and the ancient site of Stone City. The plateau area has high altitudes; travelers should prepare accordingly based on their health and avoid strenuous activities. Inform staff promptly if feeling unwell.
In the cultural core of Southern Xinjiang, Kashgar’s Old City retains traditional street layouts with many specialty handicraft shops and local food outlets. In 2026, visiting Kashgar’s Old City requires no additional reservation; just follow the scenic area’s guidance to enter.
The Flaming Mountain scenic area in Turpan will add new immersive cultural experience projects in 2026, allowing visitors to participate in special interactive activities. The Karez Folk Custom Park also features a water culture experience zone for understanding ancient irrigation systems. The Grape Valley offers fresh grapes of various varieties from June to September.
