Yili Lavender Fields Travel Guide

🌷 Yili Lavender Blooming Season: Mid-June to Mid-July · 💐【Lavender Photography Tips】 1️⃣ Best shooting time is after 7 PM, as the sun sets around 9:30-10:00 PM in Xinjiang. The light at 8-9 PM is the softest. 2️⃣ Choose lavender fields with undulating terrain. Standing on higher ground makes it easier to capture layered shots. 3️⃣ Lavender purple is already a highly saturated color, so wearing light-colored outfits (white looks great!) is recommended. 💡 Photography Tips: ✅ Outfit Suggestions: Pure white dresses or light purple clothing are top choices. Pair them with straw hats or scarves for a perfect match with the lavender fields! ✅ Prop Recommendations: Straw hats, scarves, flower baskets, and books are great additions—especially scarves fluttering in the wind for a dreamy effect! ✅ Editing Filters: Try VSCO’s M5 or V6 filters to boost purple tones and make the flower fields look even more magical! 🚶‍♀️ Travel Tips: ✅ Transportation: Drive from Yining city—about a 1-hour trip. ✅ Tickets: Lavender farm tickets are affordable; advance purchase is recommended! ✅ Accommodation: Stay in charming B&Bs near the fields to enjoy the lavender fragrance at night! ✅ Food: Don’t miss the local Yining hand-pulled rice—tender and flavorful!
