One second into a fairy tale world, the secret realm of Xinjiang is stunningly beautiful

The natural scenery of Altay fascinates me. The first time I set foot on this land, the morning Kanas Lake was like a dream, the lake was as calm as a mirror, reflecting the distant snow-capped mountains. The primitive style and simple folk customs of Hemu Village made me feel like I had returned to the past, finding long-lost tranquility. 🌲 Destination Introduction: Altay is located in northern Xinjiang and boasts rich natural landscapes. Here, you can find the mysterious Kanas Lake, the tranquil Hemu Village, the rustic Baihaba Village, and the majestic Altai Mountains. Each attraction is full of unique charm, making it an ideal place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. 📸 Must-Visit Spots: Kanas Lake: The fairyland-like lake scenery is mesmerizing. Hemu Village: The morning mist intertwined with wooden houses makes you feel like you are in a painting. Altai Mountains: A great place for skiing in winter, experiencing speed and passion. 🍲 Special Cuisine: In Altay, roasted whole lamb and hand-grabbed meat are must-try delicacies, especially when paired with local naan and milk tea, offering a unique flavor. 🚗 Travel Suggestions: Self-driving is the most convenient way, allowing flexible itinerary arrangements. It is recommended to visit in summer and autumn to experience the most beautiful scenery of Altay. If time is tight, a three-day, two-night trip is also a good choice, focusing on Kanas Lake and Hemu Village. 🔍 Tips: Remember to bring sunscreen and warm clothing, as the weather in Altay is changeable, with large temperature differences between morning and evening. Book accommodations in advance, especially for popular attractions.
