My freedom should be in such a place|Xinjiang

🌈Only by personally arriving and experiencing it can you believe that the scenery here truly exists. Along the way, snow-capped mountains and forests🏔️, lakes and waterfalls💧, grasslands and canyons... the scenery keeps changing, as if you have entered paradise, and it feels like being in the real world of Zelda🎮. Perhaps, our lives should be spent in such beautiful places💕. 💪6 days of trekking, covering a total distance of about 120km. In these 6 days of disconnection from the world, you can truly connect with nature and have a dialogue with yourself, and that feeling is really unparalleled. Later, I told everyone I met that those 6 days were the most unforgettable memories of my life🥰. 🕰️The expected opening time this year is: 6.12—early October. 👉Itinerary reference: 🌞D1: Qiongkushitai Village→Valley Camp, trekking about 10km. Along the way, you can enjoy the beautiful grassland scenery, as if you have walked into a painting🖼️. 🌞D2: Valley Camp→Qiong Daban→Snow Mountain Viewing Camp, trekking about 20km. On this day, you can admire the spectacular snow-capped mountains up close, with the white snow peaks sparkling in the sunlight✨, making you marvel at the wonders of nature. 🌞D3: Viewing Camp→Zipline across the river→Koksu River Camp, trekking about 20km. The zipline across the river is super exciting, be sure to pay attention to safety😉. 🌞D4: Koksu River Camp→Paradise Lake (Ak-Kul Alpine Lake), trekking about 20km. Paradise Lake is so beautiful that it takes your breath away😍, with blue water surrounded by snow-capped mountains, like a dazzling pearl embedded in the earth. 🌞D5: Paradise Lake→Akbulak Daban→Bozikrig Valley, trekking about 20km. Continue to challenge yourself and enjoy different beautiful scenery. 🌞D6: Bozikrig Valley→Heiying Mountain Township→Kuqa, trekking about 30km. Finally completed this difficult yet wonderful trekking journey🎉. 📍Newly recommended attractions: 🍃Kalajun Grassland: Vast grasslands with colorful flowers blooming, like a huge palette🎨. 🍃Nalati Grassland: The beautiful scenery of cattle and sheep appearing when the grass is blown low is fully displayed here, super healing.🐑 😋Food recommendations: 🥘Hand-pulled rice: Each grain of rice is distinct, the lamb is tender and juicy, and the aroma is overflowing.😋 🍜Xinjiang mixed noodles: Chewy noodles with delicious side dishes, super satisfying with one bite.😜 🫓Baked buns: Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, absolutely delicious.👍 🥧Naan: Can be used as dry food during trekking, the more you chew, the more fragrant it is.😉 ⚠️Tips: 1⃣️The entire route takes a long time and covers a long distance, requiring high physical fitness💪, beginners should be cautious.😉 2⃣️The 6-day itinerary basically does not allow for bathing, and there is no signal📶 throughout the journey, so be mentally prepared.😃 3⃣️Equipment suggestions: hard shell & soft shell jackets🧥, thin down/fleece, quick-drying clothes, hat🧢, raincoat, gloves🧤, trekking shoes👟, water shoes, trail food🍞, sunscreen and moisturizing products💄, magic headscarf, sunglasses🕶️, trekking poles, a small amount of cash, etc.💳 4⃣️You can choose commercial or local groups according to your situation, and be sure to confirm the relevant equipment services and quotations.💰 5⃣️Be sure to take your garbage away and protect this beautiful natural environment.💖 🌟Finally, I still want to say that the Wusun Ancient Trail is really one of the most beautiful trekking destinations in China👏. But only those who have walked it will understand the bittersweet experience😃. The rushing and icy river, the changing weather, the harsh environment, the physical challenges... If you are not fully prepared, I do not recommend you take this journey. On the Wusun Ancient Trail, do not treat trekking as a pleasure trip, but as a self-challenge, so that the scenery in front of you will be more meaningful💗.
