Kanas Lake, a place that captivates the heart

👍Recommendation: The scenery of Kanas Lake is truly mesmerizing! The experience of staying in the pastoral-style cabins is also fantastic, and you can wake up early to avoid the crowds! 📍Location: Kanas is located in the Altay region of Xinjiang, a beautiful natural scenic area. ✈️Transportation: You can drive to the Jiadengyu parking lot and then take a shuttle bus into the scenic area. A little tip: the view on the right side of the shuttle bus is more beautiful! 🎫Tickets: The ticket, including the shuttle bus, is 230 yuan. Students and seniors only need 150 yuan. Tickets can be purchased on various platforms or at Jiadengyu. 🏨Accommodation: It is recommended to stay in the pastoral-style cabins within the scenic area. The old village is lively and close to the visitor center, while the new village is less crowded with beautiful scenery but you need to go to the old village for meals. 🎈How to play: Take the shuttle bus within the scenic area, which has five routes. A suggested one-day itinerary: Visitor Center → Guanyu Pavilion → Kanas Lake → Fairy Bay → Moon Bay → Wolong Bay. If you have time, you can also visit the old village and then walk to enjoy the scenery from Moon Bay to Wolong Bay. ‼️Other tips: 1️⃣ To see the panoramic view from Guanyu Pavilion, you need to climb 1068 steps or ride a horse for 1 hour (your butt might hurt) ; 2️⃣ Taking a boat on Kanas Lake is not a must; 3️⃣ The last shuttle bus is at 8 PM, so watch the time; 4️⃣ It takes about 2-3 hours to walk from Moon Bay to Wolong Bay, wear comfortable shoes and allow enough time; 5️⃣ If you find the homestays in the village expensive, you can consider staying in Baihaba, which is more affordable and also within the scenic area.
