A Fairytale Village in Your Dreams | Qiongkushtai

| Qiongkushtai. As the "beauty" of the Ili grassland🌿, Qiongkushtai is already sprouting🌱! ‼This year, the beginning of spring is earlier, and the ❄snow melts earlier, so 👉it is estimated that it will start to turn green at the end of April, just like last year! . ‼In May, sporadic wildflowers (such as top ice flowers and buttercups) begin to bloom, and the meadows gradually come alive. . ‼Early June to mid-July: The best viewing period! The Kalajun Grassland and Qiongkushtai are connected into a "three-dimensional flower carpet"💐, with yellow and purple buttercups and primroses covering the hills, surrounded by snow-capped mountains🏔 and spruce forests🌲, as if you have stumbled into a Miyazaki summer. ⚠⚠⚠Practical information: There are four ways to enjoy Qiongkushtai in depth without getting tired: 1⃣Back Mountain Hiking/Horseback Riding Natural Landscape: Snow-capped mountains, cattle and sheep, grasslands, swings, forest hikes. Hiking uphill: 3-4 km in total, 1.5 hours at a slow pace. Horseback riding downhill: 100💰/horse, about 30 mins.
