Tonight, eat cold water fish and watch the Internet celebrity bridge in the fairy tale border town

I was fascinated by the "fairy tale border town" Burqin in Altay, Xinjiang, and found the street view very unique. Just as we drove out of Urumqi, crossed the desert highway to Altay via S21, and played in the Sea Devil City and Wuhai Beach, two scenic spots, we were quite tired, so we chose to stay in Burqin for one night. Burqin is located in Altay, bordering Kazakhstan, Russia, and Mongolia in the north and northeast. It is more appropriate to come to Burqin at night, because the buildings here are Russian-style, and they look better after the lights are turned on at night. The famous Burqin Internet celebrity bridge also realizes the transformation from Cinderella to the princess of crystal shoes after the lights are turned on. In the evening, we tasted the cold water fish of the Irtysh River, watched the night view of the Burqin Internet celebrity bridge, strolled around the Chinese-Russian old wharf style street, drank the small Nukeen yogurt, and finally stayed in the fairy tale castle. As a night transit station, I feel that this small town is very distinctive. Friends who drive by themselves need to pay attention that the speed limit in the county town is almost 40 all the way, so everyone should pay attention to the speed. In addition, some local drivers change lanes quite urgently, so everyone should pay more attention to avoid. It's about having fun, safety and happiness are the most important.
