Our last stop in Xinjiang was a day trip to the Nalati Grasslands near Ili. We departed from Yining City and took the highway all the way, with a toll fee of 184 RMB. The entrance ticket to the scenic area, which includes the shuttle bus, costs 135 RMB per person, and the round-trip shuttle to Xuelian Valley is 60 RMB per person. At the scenic area, we chose the Sky Grassland ticket with the shuttle bus. The shuttle stops at three spots on the way up, and on the way down, it goes directly to the visitor center. So, make sure to get off at each stop to enjoy the attractions. Today, we also added a one-hour horseback riding activity, which costs 80 RMB per person (I also recommend riding in Xuelian Valley for better scenery and fewer people). At the Nomadic Station, you can buy a shuttle ticket to Xuelian Valley. I highly recommend going there as it is the most beautiful spot. I'll let the photos speak for themselves. Feel free to ask any questions. 🕰️Business Hours: 8:30 AM - 8:30 PM

#AdventurousTraveler Zhaosu County, Ili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang, located in a river valley, was once a nomadic area of ​​the ancient Wusun Kingdom. It has unique geographical advantages - the unique beauty of the Tianshan hinterland and the profound grassland history and culture. One of the unique horse breeds here is the Ili horse, which can be regarded as the finest horse among the "celestial horses", and thus it is praised as the "hometown of celestial horses". Every early summer, Ili horses would come to the river to drink water, bathe, play and fight at the urging of herdsmen, with groups of horses running on the waves. The changes of light and shadow are intertwined, and the water and horses are shaking with strength to attract the attention of tourists, as if watching a visual feast on the Milky Way - "Heavenly Horse Bathing in the River". The sunlight at dusk on the banks of Tekes River and the herds of Pegasus complement each other. The endless beauty is refreshing and the scene is very shocking. It is definitely worth your visit.

After a trip to Xinjiang, my heartfelt feeling is! Apart from Xinjiang, the rest is elsewhere, no other place can replace it! Xinjiang is about to enter the most beautiful summer, this summer, you must go to Xinjiang 🌲 · ✈ Chengdu - Yining, rent a car for a self-driving tour 🚙 Total cost per person is 6k (excluding airfare) May in Yili has just entered spring, there is still snow in many places, the biggest advantage is that during the off-season, air tickets and hotel prices are cheap, and you can enjoy both the snow-capped mountains and some early blooming flowers🌼. June is the best time, with blooming flowers and green grass, but the snow mountains have melted, and the consumption is moderate. July and August are the peak tourist seasons, with all the lavender in Huocheng in full bloom, and the consumption is relatively high. · 🚙 My favorite places throughout the journey 【Nalati】 Self-driving 300/person, although the price is not cheap, it is truly worth it, I love Nalati the most, there are herds of cattle and sheep on the grassland, as well as snow-capped mountains and streams, you must wait for the sunset at the nomadic homes 【Qiaxi Forest Park】 Compared to Kuerdening, I prefer Qiaxi, it's as romantic as an oil painting, just like the movie scene of 'Heidi and Grandfather', I suggest staying in Gongliu 【Qiongkushitai】 The road to Qiongku is extremely beautiful, there is a snow mountain swing in front of the mountain, there is no need to be stubborn about the back mountain, the stay at Qingkong Jiyi is awesome 【Fairy Lake】 Although it requires hiking, the scenery is absolutely worth it 【Sailimu Lake】 Get up at 5 am to go to S bay to watch the sunrise, an unforgettable experience, it is a beautiful scene that will be remembered for a lifetime . 🚙12-day trip recommendation 1. Chengdu - Urumqi 2. Huocheng - Sailimu Lake (must see the sunrise) 3. Sailimu Lake - Guozigou Bridge - Huocheng Lavender, stay in Yining or Huanghuang Village 4. Yining - Tekes - Qiongkushitai 5. Qiongkushitai 6. Qiongkushitai - Kalajun Grassland - Stay in Zhaosu 7. Xatage scenic area - Stay in Tekes Bagua City at night 8. Tekes - Tekes River - Qiaxi Forest Park - Nalati, stay in the town 9. Nalati Grassland Scenic Area 10. Nalati - Northern section of Duku Highway - Tangbula - Fairy Lake, stay in Tangbula 11. Tangbula - Northern section of Duku Highway - Urumqi · 🌟Precautions 1. Prepare mosquito repellent 2. Choose an SUV for car rental, the roads to Qiongkushitai and Qiaxi are not very good 3. The temperature difference between morning and evening is large, you can experience four seasons in one day 4. If you want to take pictures of the sunrise at Sailimu Lake and don't want to stay in the scenic area, you can enter from the east gate before 9 am (the south gate does not check tickets)

We have seen the sunny and rainy Nalati Grassland, snow-capped mountains, forests, streams, herds of cattle and sheep. Every time the wind blows the grass waves and the clouds roll by, it refreshes my imagination of a fairy tale world. Xinjiang · Nalati Grassland Self-driving 200 RMB per person, unlimited entries within 48 hours for section car: 135 RMB per person Tour route: Valley Grassland - Panlong Valley Road - Sky Grassland - Nomadic Family's Internet-famous Bridge | Shooting location Valley Grassland You will understand the sense of relaxation here when you see the cattle and sheep leisurely grazing on the open, undulating grass slopes. ◆ Panlong Valley Road Driving through it, it's like a road winding forward on the green background of the Nalati Grassland. When you pass by the glowing 'magic tree' (a fake tree growing on a real tree branch), you must stop. Whether you go to the streamside, climb the hillside, or sit under the tree, you can see the beautiful scenery from different perspectives; Sky Grassland Just navigate to the Nomadic Family's home, the internet-famous bridge is nearby. There are a lot of people in line, personally, I don't think it's necessary to wait. Walking up, there are many wooden bridges and tree stumps that are very photogenic, or you can climb the hillside to see the distant snow-capped mountains

Just came back from a delightful trip in Xinjiang, from the vastness of Northern Xinjiang to the mystique of Southern Xinjiang. Although I encountered some minor setbacks along the way, I also enjoyed the beautiful scenery. I want to share these experiences with everyone, hoping they can help with your journeys! 👏 . 1️⃣ The four most worthwhile spots to check in ✔️ Nalati Grassland: Endless grasslands that are utterly refreshing! 🌾 ✔️ Sayram Lake: The lake is as clear as a mirror, breathtakingly beautiful! 🌊 ✔️ Tianshan Sea of Flowers: Fields of purple lavender, extremely romantic! 🌸 ✔️ Kashgar Old Town: Traces of history are everywhere, as if traveling back to ancient times! 🏰 2️⃣ Weather is really key!! 🌦️ ▫️ The grasslands and lakes of Xinjiang change with the weather. Overcast and sunny days are completely different worlds! ▫️ If you encounter a rare sunny day, don't hesitate, head straight to Sayram Lake and take a tour around the lake. 3️⃣ Hiking in Shipton's Arch requires good physical strength! 🚶‍♂️ ✔️ If you want to experience the magnificence of the snow-capped mountains up close, Shipton's Arch is a good choice, but it requires 1-2 hours of hiking, and the path is not easy. If you are traveling with the elderly or children, take it easy! ✔️ The shuttle bus in Shipton's Arch is very crowded, it is recommended to start early and try to return before 4 pm. 4️⃣ Thick clothes are a must! 🧥 Xinjiang has a large temperature difference between day and night, and the wind is strong. Even if the day is hot, you must bring thick clothes, otherwise, you will really get a runny nose from the cold! 5️⃣ Ili Grassland, 2-3 selections are enough! 🌾 ✔️ There are too many grasslands in Ili, and seeing too many can really lead to aesthetic fatigue! If you like snow-capped mountains, choose Shipton's Arch; if you like forests, choose Qiongkushitai or Chaxi; if you like grasslands, choose Nalati. ✔️ For Nalati, you can skip the internet-famous bridge, but you must go to the Panlong Valley Road, that's where the essence really is! 95% of people will miss this spot. 6️⃣ Golden hour for photography: 7-10 am/pm 📸 Morning and evening light is soft, especially in the evening when there's a high chance of seeing the sunset, the sky turns golden, making photos especially good, full of artistic conception! Oh, and the ultraviolet rays in Xinjiang are really strong, be sure to protect yourself from the sun! 🌞 . 👉👉 My itinerary ✅D1. Urumqi to S21 Desert Highway - Colorful Beach Sunset ✅D2.

🌌The Nalati Tourist Center can go to the Sky Prairie and Valley Prairie. The Valley Prairie is located in Xinyuan County, Yili State, Xinjiang, with an altitude of more than 2,000 meters. It is a place that Xinjiang people admire. 🏔Looking far away, you can see the Kabamba main peak covered with ice and snow all year round. At the foot of the mountain, the grass is like shade, the forest is dense on the waist of the mountain, the top of the mountain is covered with snow, the rushing Gongnais River roars past, the spruce stands tall, the grass is green, it is a veritable sky prairie. Its large scale, beautiful scenery and pleasant scenery make tourists feel as if they are in a beautiful painting. 🏞Nalati Valley Prairie is one of the four major valley prairies in the world, and it is as famous as the famous Swiss mountains. The Valley Prairie has the Wusun Camp, the Wusun Horse Team statue, the Prairie Tribe, and the Kazakh herders' felt tents and local delicacies such as roast buns, roast naan, handmade yogurt, and daily necessities.

You must visit Xinjiang once! Because... it is so beautiful! Last summer I went to Xinjiang to play. Altay is really beautiful. I like eating baked buns. I can eat baked naan all the time. I don’t like it very much. My teeth are not good. It’s hard to bite. The lamb skewers are really big. We often go to the local After eating at the night market, I went to sleep at one o'clock. I got up at seven in the morning to continue my journey. Because it was a self-driving tour, I had to get up two hours earlier than the locals and couldn't sleep in. But I would sleep in the car because I wasn't driving. Hami melons are super sweet. Huoyan Mountain is very hot. I ate cultural ice cream there. Bayin has a lot of birds. I thought Bayin was like the one in "Flying Life". Maybe the place we went to was different from the place where we filmed. The sun was very strong and I kept wearing Wearing a hat, Tianshan Tianchi is very wide, the mountain is very high, the trees are very green, and the water is very blue. It is the same as I imagined, but also different. There is a snow-capped mountain. This is the first snow-capped mountain I have seen. I climbed halfway up, but it was too steep and I couldn't see the end. It was the first time I saw a camel with two humps on the national highway. When I was in high school, I received a gift of a camel doll with one hump. We were very close before, but we are no longer in touch now. The mountains in Altay are alive, and the water is also alive and flowing. The river is the blood of the mountains and rivers, feeding the creatures on them. When the car stopped by the roadside to rest, a local child took a photo with his lamb and paid for it. They both looked very much like Lazy Sheep. The child also had curly hair. He squatted down and held it in his hand. The lamb's head is talking to him and touching noses. It's so cute. It's like they can really communicate. In the Kanas scenic area of ​​Burqin County, I saw the green lake, crows gathered together, ducks swimming, wooden houses of families, colorful flags, eagles flying in the sky, and the karst landforms written in the geography book at Wucai Beach. In Bor Tara saw the last tear of the Atlantic Ocean and the magnificent Guozigou Bridge. I saw people riding horses and pulling sheep carts. The prayer flags fluttered in the wind. The clouds were very close to the mountains, casting shadows on the mountains, sometimes bright and sometimes dark. I felt this. The land is breathing with me in front of my eyes. I took a nap on the bus to Nalati and woke up in Xinjiang. There is an electronic screen at the visitor center of Bayin Scenic Area with a sentence written on it that can summarize all the moments I have spent on this land - "Standing on this magnificent grassland, it is difficult for us to judge whether this is a paradise on earth or a paradise on earth." Life is short, don't worry too much. Instead of spending your days in turmoil, it is better to live happily in comfort.

Grasslands, Our country's grasslands are diverse, Stretching thousands of kilometers from east to west, The ingenious work of nature, Has created these pure lands. Hulunbuir Eastern Grassland The sky is high and the clouds are low, the grass is fragrant, herds of cattle and sheep, fine horses, thousands of crisscrossing rivers, they meander and twist, forming the unique brilliant scroll of the grassland. Ili Grassland The Ili Grassland is the Narati Grassland, "Narati" means: the first place to see the sun, in summer, it is the most beautiful "Jiangnan outside the Great Wall". Xilingol Grassland Xilingol Grassland is a treasure, a green ocean, various flowers compete for beauty, herdsmen ride horses, cattle and sheep roam, it is a feast for the eyes. Mao Ya Alpine Grassland In the embrace of the mountains, the grassland is lush like the sea, the wild flowers are blooming in purple and red, and a roll is full of fragrance. Naqu Alpine Grassland Naqu is located between the Tanggula Mountain Range and the Nyainqentanglha Mountain Range, it is a sparsely populated virgin land, every summer, the vegetation is most lush. Qilian Mountain Grassland The scenery of Qilian Mountain Grassland is picturesque, the sky is high and the clouds are light, summer is like spring, the blue waves are vast, horses, cattle, and sheep are dotted among them, returning to nature in an instant, returning to simplicity, like a fairyland.

Xinjiang, this mysterious and rich land, under the influence of the Silk Road, has bred a unique style. This time, let me share with you a travel experience in Xinjiang, as well as some precautions and accommodation recommendations. First of all, for those who go to Xinjiang for the first time, my suggestion is to choose Urumqi as the first stop. The transportation here is convenient, and the time difference is two hours later than Beijing time, remember to adjust your biological clock! In Urumqi, you can visit the natural scenery such as Tianshan Tianchi and Nanshan Pasture, and feel the magnificence of Xinjiang. In terms of accommodation, different regions have different places to stay. For Kanas, Hemu and Sayram Lake, you can choose to stay in Beitun City, Jiadengyu and Burqin. These places are not only close to the attractions, but also have complete facilities, which can allow you to get sufficient rest during the journey. If you come to Narati Grassland, I strongly recommend you to stay in the log cabins in the scenic area. There, you can better appreciate the starry sky and increase the play time. Imagine, on the quiet grassland, looking up at the stars, do you feel extremely relaxed and comfortable? Speaking of self-driving routes, I want to recommend an Yili ring line. This route starts from Urumqi, passes through Sayram Lake, Huocheng, Zhaosu, Tekes, Qiongkushitai, Narati and Duku Highway, and finally returns to Urumqi from Dushanzi. The entire route is about 2300 kilometers, requires 12 days, and drives an average of 5-6 hours a day. On this route, you will appreciate the magnificent scenery and rich cultural landscape of Xinjiang. In terms of attractions, I recommend Qiongkushitai, Huocheng Lavender, Tangbula Fairy Lake, Narati Grassland, Sayram Lake and Duku Highway. Qiongkushitai is a charming fairy tale forest with tall pine trees and clear streams; Huocheng Lavender is a romantic purple flower sea, which makes people intoxicated; Tangbula Fairy Lake is a small popular secret, the lake is green as jade; Narati Grassland is a beautiful air grassland and valley grassland, with herds of cattle and sheep, picturesque scenery; Sayram Lake is a beautiful lake, the lake is clear and bottomless; Duku Highway is a journey that makes people feel the four seasons, and the scenery along the way is changeable and beautiful. Of course, the food in Xinjiang is also not to be missed. Big plate chicken, lamb skewers, roasted lamb chops, rack meat, roasted buns and other delicious foods make people drool. In addition, there are old yogurt, cold water fish, hand-grabbed rice, bagged meat and latiao and other special foods waiting for you to taste. Here, your taste buds will be greatly satisfied. In general, this trip to Xinjiang is an unforgettable experience. From Urumqi to the Yili ring line, to the Narati Grassland and the Duku Highway, I have felt the unique style and beautiful scenery of Xinjiang. At the same time, I have also summarized some precautions and accommodation recommendations, hoping to provide some help and reference for your trip to Xinjiang. Now plan your trip to Xinjiang! On this beautiful land, you will gain unforgettable memories and wonderful experiences. Wish you a pleasant journey!

I see many people discouraging Narati, but I personally like it very much. It's really pretty, but now there are too many people coming to Xinjiang. The scenic spots are full of people. You have to queue for the shuttle bus. It is recommended to drive by yourself, but the self-driving is limited. Only 5000 tickets are sold a day. You may need to make an appointment in advance. To go to the Snow Lotus Valley, you need to buy another shuttle bus ticket. It's closer to the snow mountain. There are too many people queuing for the Internet celebrity bridge. I just walked forward and took pictures. The conclusion is that besides the crowd, there are still a lot of people. But the scenery will heal everything.

I've always been fascinated by the grasslands, and finally, I had the chance to see it with my own eyes during this holiday. To feel the wind from the grasslands and experience the joy of freedom~ Since we drove there with friends, we had the chance to stop and take more photos🏞️ On the first day, we checked in to the Narati Grassland in Yining. Indeed, it was more shocking to see it with my own eyes, it was very vast and endless. The green grasslands, the green of the grasslands and the blue of the sky are a super wonderful color match~ Every photo taken can be used as a wallpaper, and every shot feels like a comic. It's like being in a fairy tale world🎠 After taking beautiful photos and witnessing the beautiful scenery with my own eyes, I guess I will miss Narati for a long time~
