Family, today I found another great place and hope you come to visit

After reading this guide, I'll take you to enjoy the unbeatable scenery of Chaxi Grassland🏞️ Chaxi Grassland in Gongliu is stunningly beautiful! Eagles soaring in the blue sky, wildflower carpets swaying in the wind, and the aroma of milk tea drifting from herders' homes... This place isn’t Switzerland but better than Switzerland, every shot looks like a wallpaper-worthy masterpiece✨ 💡Recommended activities: 📍Chaxi Grassland Scenic Tourism Area (Jiergelang Township, Gongliu County, Ili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture) Best time to visit is from April to October, opens daily at 9 AM. It’s recommended to come early morning or late afternoon for the softest light. Don’t forget to experience milking cows with the herders, only 5 yuan for a joyful experience! 📸Photo tips: 1. Run across the grassland in a light-colored long dress for a super healing scene 2. Horse riding costs 80-100 yuan/hour, remember to bargain 3. Arrive at the viewing platform one hour before sunset, the golden grassland is breathtaking 🍢Must-try food: Freshly made and grilled buns at the entrance, 2 yuan each, so delicious you’ll lick your fingers! Kazakh milk tea is salty and rich, perfect with naan~ ⚠️Notes: • Big temperature difference! Bringing a light down jacket is necessary • UV rays are extremely strong, sunscreen + sunglasses + hat are a must • If driving, an SUV is recommended as some roads are quite bumpy
