Xinjiang in May and June! Every frame is incredibly healing!

😍 Escape the crowds this May Day! I discovered 8 hidden gems in Xinjiang, and my friends flooded me with questions! --- ### 🌈 Xinjiang, why did I post 10 stories in a row? 🇨🇳 This place covers 1/6 of China’s vast land, with snow-capped mountains, grasslands, lakes, and deserts like surprise blind boxes all packed in! 📸 Chasing swans on a bike at Sayram Lake, capturing the four seasons’ fashion show along the Duku Highway, and getting 99+ likes in just half an hour on social media! 🍖 Lamb skewers served in a basin, yogurt curds so sour they make you squint, yet I secretly licked the bowl the next day… Xinjiang, you’ve completely won me over! --- ### 👯♀️ Carpooling with strangers? I found a better way to enjoy it ### 🚗 My secret tips for private group tours 👫 Small groups of 2–6 people feel like private tours; no need to Photoshop strangers out of your grassland photos! ✈️ Drone + DSLR dual-camera filming, 15-second videos go viral on Douyin (tested and proven) 🛋️ The VIP lane at Nalati is amazing! While others wait 3 hours in line, I sip coffee and enjoy the view~ 🚐 A driver with 10 years’ experience took us speeding along the Duku Highway, and even those prone to motion sickness had a blast! 💡 No need to plan your itinerary; sudden hailstorms turn into grassland hotpot parties—ultimate laid-back travel! 👉 Click below ### 🚗 Hidden local tips they don’t tell you 🌊 Sayram Lake light-chasing guide Catch the crackling sound of blue ice breaking at 6am, row a transparent boat at noon for magical floating shots, and watch the orange sunset dye swan wings red—256GB phone storage? Not nearly enough! 🐎 Wild fun on Nalati Grassland Ride horses into a Kazakh pasture, compete in horse riding with curly-haired kids, learn to bake naan in a yurt until you’re dancing with joy, and capture the Milky Way emoji late at night wrapped in a down jacket! 🛣 High-energy moments on the Duku Highway Just finished building a snowman at the mountain pass, then turn a corner and fall into a purple lavender field! The bun vendor smiled mysteriously: “There are 9 more surprise spots ahead.” 🎨 Color clash adventures in Kazanqi Mint blue houses, bright yellow walls, pink flower corridors like a spilled paint palette, and lambs by the roadside stealing the spotlight more than the trendy coffee shops! --- ### ⏰ Trust me! Leave right now Spring in Xinjiang is counting down! The wildflower carpet is already laid in May, the grasslands are just sprouting, and flight + hotel prices haven’t gone up yet. Hesitate any longer, and you’ll only watch others flood your feed! ---
