Exploring the Northern Xinjiang Border:Comprehensive Guide to the 4-Day Deep Group Tour in Altay
Itinerary Highlights:Encounter the Hidden Gems of Northern Xinjiang Along the Border
Located in northern Xinjiang, the Altay region borders Mongolia, Russia, and Kazakhstan. Its unique geographical location has created magnificent natural scenery and diverse cultural landscapes. This 4-day group tour will take you along the border highway, through forests and grasslands, allowing you to deeply experience the vastness and grandeur of Northern Xinjiang.
During the trip, you will visit Kanas Lake—a lake known as the “backyard garden”—where the water changes from blue to green depending on the light, and the primitive forests by the lakeside are lush, making you feel like you’ve stepped into a fairy tale world. Then, head to Hemu Village, a primitive village inhabited by the Tuwa people, where morning mists create picturesque scenes, and wooden houses, cooking smoke, and snow-capped mountains form a stunning picture. Additionally, you will visit Baihaba Village, the “first village in the northwest,” separated from Kazakhstan by just a river, where the peaceful and primitive atmosphere makes you feel like you’re in a secluded paradise. Along the way, you will also enjoy the magnificent scenery of the Irtysh River, which flows into the Arctic Ocean, with beautiful landscapes on both sides that are truly captivating.
