I have been to both Tianshan Sea of ​​Flowers and Huocheng Lavender! I advise you to think twice

I have been to both Tianshan Sea of ​​Flowers and Huocheng Lavender! I advise you to think twice. We are Sherlock and Xiao Xixi who are traveling around the world. Our second stop after resigning is Xinjiang. Coming to Yili to see lavender is one of the plans for a trip to Xinjiang. When chatting with flower farmers, I learned that Yili lavender generally blooms twice, one in June and one in September. The blooming season is the most prosperous at the end of June, so if you want to see lavender, you must seize this window of time! (Due to weather conditions, the yield has not been very good in the past two years, and the price of essential oils has also dropped. A farmer earning 10,000+ yuan on 10 acres of lavender) Huocheng lavender is known as one of the three major lavender producing areas in the world. The lavender in Tianshan Flower Sea has also attracted attention recently. We went to Tianshan Flower Sea and Huocheng to experience the rich purple and compiled this guide. - P1-P6 Tianshan Flower Sea √This is a pure scenic spot, $60 per person (excluding shuttle bus), although you can't drive yourself, but it is strongly recommended that you rent a mini car at the door (120 per hour) √ You don’t need to buy a zone ticket when renting a car. The speed limit is 40, and each car can accommodate a maximum of 4 adults and 1 child. The advantage is that you can stop at any time and experience it in depth. √The lavender in Tianshan Flower Sea is taken care of by a dedicated person, and the overall shape is relatively regular, so it will not look sparse when taking photos. √ It is best to shoot lavender with the light shining directly on it. You can prepare a straw hat and don’t wear clothes that are too bright. one P7-P10 Huocheng Lavender Valley √When we arrived in Huocheng, we didn’t go to the most popular Princess Jieyou, but went straight to the Lavender Valley (Lao Ge Lavender Garden). √From the perspective of a drone, the lavender in Huocheng is relatively scattered. Although the overall scale is large, many flower fields belong to farmers who grow them as cash crops. Therefore, they don’t take care of the shapes, so the photos will not be particularly regular and we need to find angles. √The lavender valley is still very shocking when viewed from an aerial perspective, and it is very lush overall. I even think it is the best blooming in Huanghuang Village. √ You don’t need to pay to take pictures on the side. If you want to enter the field, it’s 20 per person or you can buy some lavender products. After all, the boss is not doing charity, so I think it’s understandable. √You can take photos from a high place to create the shape of a lavender valley.
