🚂[2026 Latest Simplified Itinerary]🌿 [In-depth Introduction to Destinations]
Complete Analysis of North and South Xinjiang’s Essence Attractions
Turpan:The red rock cliffs of the Flaming Mountains contrast sharply with the underground water conservancy project of the Karez Well. Ayding Lake, as the lowest point in China, is a must-visit for geology enthusiasts.
Kashgar:The Kashgar Old City preserves traditional architectural styles of various ethnic groups. The morning prayer ceremony at Id Kah Mosque and the singing and playing performances at the century-old tea house showcase a rich atmosphere of life.
Duku Highway:This ‘most beautiful highway in China’ runs through the Tianshan Mountains, offering views of snow-capped mountains, grasslands, and canyons along the way (may be closed due to snow from late May to early June, itinerary will change to alternative plan).
Kanas:In autumn, Kanas Lake is surrounded by colorful forests. The wooden houses with cooking smoke and the starry sky in Hemu Village create a fairy-tale scene, a paradise for photography enthusiasts.
Nalati Grassland:As one of the world’s four major alpine grasslands, it is covered with wildflowers in summer and golden in autumn. Horseback riding or hiking allows for an in-depth experience of the grassland charm.
Sayram Lake:Known as ‘the last tear of the Atlantic Ocean’, the lake water is crystal clear. Self-driving or cycling around the lake is an excellent way to experience its grandeur.
