New Option for One-Day Tour Near Urumqi:Unlock Hidden Gems with Customized Group Transport
🌄 Detailed Introduction to Routes or Destinations
Surrounding Urumqi lie numerous natural and cultural landscapes that remain underexplored. The newly launched “One-Day Leisure Sightseeing Tour Near Suburbs” in 2026 focuses on “light outdoor activities + in-depth experiences,” steering clear of crowds at traditional hotspots and guiding visitors to off-the-beaten-path secrets at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains. The itinerary covers three distinctive areas:
Dabancheng Salt Lake Ecological Zone: Known as “China’s Dead Sea,” the salt lake offers natural buoyancy due to its high-concentration brine, allowing visitors to enjoy floating fun. The lake’s surface shifts between blue and green hues with changing light, surrounded by wind farms that create a unique “salt lake + windmills” landscape. The scenic area has completed ecological restoration, adding wooden walkways and viewing platforms ideal for photography and family interactions.
Nanshan Pasture Xibaiyang Gully: Unlike the bustling East Gully, Xibaiyang Gully is renowned for its primeval forests and alpine meadows. In 2026, the scenic area introduced a 7-kilometer hiking trail connecting waterfalls, pastures, and yurts of various ethnic groups. Visitors can participate in folk activities like milking cows and making nang (traditional bread), while savoring freshly brewed milk tea and hand-grabbed mutton.
Asian Geographic Center Park: Located 30 kilometers southwest of Urumqi, scientists confirmed this site as the geographic center of the Asian continent via satellite positioning in 1992. The park features an iconic iron tower and landmark stone, surrounded by vast Gobi grasslands perfect for creative photos like “Standing at the Center of Asia.”
