I captured "9 suns" in Bayinbuluke, the same secret place as in "Pegasus 2"

I'll teach you how to visit the Nine Curves and Eighteen Bends to see the "9 suns" + filming locations! Sisters! Who understands! I captured "9 suns" 🌅 in Bayinbuluke, Xinjiang! Han Han's "Pegasus 2" devil's track prototype is here! Snow-capped grassland + sunset, beautiful and suffocating! This nanny-level guide teaches you how to avoid the crowds and take movie-level blockbusters! 👇 📸Must-See Guide: 1️⃣ Time it right! Go 2 hours before sunset! Best time to shoot: 8–9 PM in the summer evening (it gets dark late in Xinjiang). The spectacle of 9 suns reflected in the 9 curves is only visible on sunny days! Remember to check the weather in advance ☀️ (I waited for 3 days to finally capture it!) 2️⃣ How to get to Bayinbuluke via the Duku Highway by car! The Duku Highway is a must-drive! Starting from Kuche/Dushanzi, stay in Bayinbuluke Town along the way (accommodation is about CNY 150 per person), scenic area ticket is CNY 65, and the shuttle bus is CNY 75! 3️⃣ Outfits + Gear! Focus on Staying Warm and Mosquito-Free! It's super windy and cold on the mountaintop! Down jackets and hats are a must (army coats can be rented at the scenic area)! Spray on mosquito repellent like crazy ‼️ The mosquitoes here can "eat people." Wear light/bright-colored clothes, and you'll instantly get silhouette blockbusters at sunset! 4️⃣ Hidden spots! Avoid the crowds! The small hill on the left side of the viewing platform is less crowded and offers a wider view! Use a telephoto lens to capture the S-bend of the river, or use "time-lapse photography" on your phone to get great shots 📱! Tian'e Lake is worth a visit, and you can see flocks of swans in May 🦢. 🏨Hotel recommendations! Bayinbuluke Town is right next to the scenic area, and there are many hotels in the town. We stayed at the Bayinbuluke Haobo Hotel, which included breakfast vouchers! 🎬[Must-See for Movie Buffs! Unveiling the Filming Locations of Pegasus 2] The prototype of the "Devil's Racecourse" in Han Han's lens is actually a herder's horse trail 🐎! 100 kilometers of gravel road close to the snow-capped mountains, you can take blockbuster highway photos by car (but the road conditions are rough, novices should be careful)! The grassland and sunset of the racing scene in the movie are all real shots. Come here to get the same passionate BGM as Shen Teng! 🔥Like and save this post, and tag your travel buddy! ✨"The mountains and rivers are vast, and life is worth living." You can only truly understand the beauty of Bayinbulak when you see it with your own eyes!
