Winter Travel | Powder Snow in Xinjiang

Winter Travel | Powder Snow in Xinjiang

Standing in the snow of Xinjiang, you can almost hear the breath of nature. This land is especially quiet in winter, with only snowflakes falling silently, bringing endless reverie. The snow covers the entire mountain, and the blue sky, white clouds, and snow dress up the small village in the mountains as a fairy tale world. There, you can climb the nearby hill in the morning or at dusk after the snow to overlook the panoramic view of Hemu. The empty valley, small bridges, and streams, and the horsemen passing through the forest will bring you a shocking visual experience. The ice and snow morning mist of Kanas is a very beautiful natural landscape. On winter mornings, a thin layer of ice forms on the lake, and a gentle morning mist floats on the lake. Under the sunlight, the morning mist appears light purple or orange, giving a mysterious and beautiful feeling. In the cold winter, the ice surface of Sayram Lake is like a huge mirror, reflecting the blue sky and the white snow-capped mountains. In this frozen world, each piece of ice has a unique shape and texture, like a work of art by nature. When the sun shines on the ice, the crystal-clear ice emits a deep blue light...

Xinjiang | Kanas.

Xinjiang | Kanas.

| Kanas. I finally made it to Kanas this fall. The golden autumn at the end of September perfectly showcases the beauty of Xinjiang We parked our car at Jiadengyu. Kanas needs to be booked in advance, especially now during the peak season. Tickets are CNY 230 per person We took a shuttle bus up. The scenery along the way at Wolong Bay, Moon Bay, and Fairy Bay is 👌. The beauty of Kanas can't be captured on a phone. It's a paradise for photographers. We took a quick look at Kanas Lake. Unfortunately, we didn't book the Fish Watching Pavilion. The biggest impression this time was that the scenic area was full of elderly groups. Don't young people like autumn in Kanas?

Xinjiang is beautiful! A place worth visiting in a lifetime.

Xinjiang is beautiful! A place worth visiting in a lifetime.

Traveling to Xinjiang in mid-September, entering Bayinbuluke to watch the sunset and feed the seagulls. The videos and photos are all unedited, absolutely stunning! Xinjiang is truly beautiful. For someone who is afraid of heights, riding a horse in the high-altitude mountains of Hemu Scenic Area in Altay is quite an experience 🤣😂🤣. It's all about fear and anxiety, but with the protection of the horseman behind me, I bravely let go and enjoyed the ride, curing my fear of heights 🤣😂🤣.

Kanas in the north! Although it's a bit of a pitfall, the scenery is really beautiful!

Kanas in the north! Although it's a bit of a pitfall, the scenery is really beautiful!

Setting off for Kanas by self-driving, I have to say, Xinjiang is really too big, you can't finish touring it, you can't see it all! Traveling in Xinjiang, the starting point is hundreds of kilometers. Drive overnight, pass through Burqin County, which is the nearest county to Kanas. If necessary, friends can choose to rest here. Later, drive to Kanas, along the way you can see the blue sky, white clouds, cattle and sheep, grassland, really for me who is used to the plain, deeply feel the magnificence of nature, the vastness of the grassland and the beauty of this pure land! 1. There will be a fork in the road halfway, going to Hemu, personally suggest that Hemu is best in winter, snow country world, really particularly beautiful 2. Arrived at a town next to the scenic area, which is the end of self-driving, went to the scenic area or the shuttle bus, this shuttle bus is a bit pit, but still for the beautiful scenery, pinch the nose to recognize, no way 3. Only when I got to the scenic area did I know what a pit was. Kanas is very beautiful, but as a poor travel party, it's really a bit of a rip-off. Even the locals complain. Next time, I will prepare water and food. I declare again, I can afford it, but who wants to be slaughtered? 4. You can choose to stay overnight. Kanas is really big. It takes a lot of time to immerse yourself in the experience. You can try your luck and see if you can bump into the giant salmon, also known as the Kanas water monster 5. Glacier relics, and other experience projects 6. The most worthwhile thing to see when going down the mountain is Wolong Bay, which is very special and good-looking 7. Burqin, features, ice cream roof, night market street, Chinese-Russian style street 8. Asian cold water fish, grilled fish can really try🍺🍺

No one told me that Xinjiang is so beautiful in winter!

No one told me that Xinjiang is so beautiful in winter!

Xinjiang's winter is so beautiful that it drives people crazy. The endless snowfield is like a white ocean; the crystal-clear rime is like a dreamy ice and snow elf; the snow-covered forest is like a gorgeous silver robe; the fairy-tale-like log cabin exudes a warm and charming light; and the bright starry sky, the sacred golden mountain, and the dreamy blue ice of Sayram Lake... Every scene is so beautiful that it makes people fall in love. I was deeply moved, almost to tears.

Xinjiang Hemu | A Winter Wonderland in the North

Xinjiang Hemu | A Winter Wonderland in the North

| A Winter Wonderland in the North. Xinjiang Hemu is a paradise on earth! It is beautiful all year round, but from November, the snow begins to fall, layer upon layer, until it is thick on the ground. The wooden houses are covered in snow, and the village looks like something out of a fairy tale. Transportation Guide 🚂 Train: First, take a train to Urumqi, then transfer to a train to Altay City. From there, you can take a taxi or carpool to Hemu Village. ✈ Plane: Altay Airport and Kanas Airport are both good options. Kanas Airport is closer to the scenic area, but there are fewer flights. Altay Airport has more flights, but is further away. If you take a taxi from Altay to Hemu, the journey takes about 5 hours, and you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Xinjiang along the way. 🚗 Driving: Be sure to change to snow tires, as safety is the most important thing when driving in the snow! Accommodation Tips 🏡 Old Village: Highly recommended! The infrastructure is relatively complete, and life is convenient. The atmosphere is great. In the evening, there is a lively bonfire party, where you can warm yourself by the fire, dance, and chat. When you are tired, you can lie on the ground and look at the stars, and all your worries will disappear. 🏂 New Village: The new village is more suitable for skiing enthusiasts, with accommodation relatively concentrated, so you can quickly return to your accommodation to rest after skiing. Hemu in winter is a place you won't want to leave, and every scene is worth savoring. 💕
