Hongshan Park | A place overlooking Urumqi!

Urumqi Hongshan Park, named after its location on Hongshan. The mountain body of Hongshan is composed of purple conglomerate, which is reddish, hence the name "Hongshan". Hongshan is a symbol of Urumqi, Xinjiang. From the top of Hongshan, you can overlook the snow-capped peaks of Tianshan Bogda and overlook the cityscape of Urumqi. ✅Recommended for play🔥: 1⃣️Hongshan Tower🗼: It has a history of more than two hundred years, the tower is 10.5 meters high, it is a solid brick tower built during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. "The tower reflects the setting sun" is one of the eight scenes of Urumqi, this position is equivalent to the highest point of Hongshan Park, where you can overlook the entire Urumqi! 2⃣️Dafo Temple🕍: There are red silk wish ropes tied to the trees, although it is small, it can also be photographed. 3⃣️Observation deck: Next to the , you can take pictures of the Ferris wheel, and you can take pictures of the snow-capped mountains🗻 when the weather is good. 4⃣️Ferris wheel🎡: You have to get on before it gets dark, a circle is about 15-20min (25 yuan per person) ✅Tour route: 📍Climb the mountain from the river beach entrance: Walk back and forth to visit, all are steps, convenient for parking. 📍Climb the mountain from the entrance of the gymnasium: It is a gentle slope, suitable for slow walking, unable to park. ✅Opening hours: 🕰️Summer: 7:00-23:00 (about early May-early October) 🕰️Winter: 8:00-21:00 (about early October-next year end of April) ✅Transportation: 1⃣️Take the bus: 29, 35, 61, 62, 63, 73, 908, 927 to Hongshan Park Station 2⃣️Take the BRT: BRT2 to Xidabridge Station, walk about 400 meters after getting off 3⃣️Taxi or Didi ✅Tickets: None ✅Sunset viewing time: 8 o'clock in summer, 7 o'clock in winter (flexible adjustment) Today's Hongshan Park has become a good place for locals to relax. It is different from the magnificent Xinjiang in my impression. When the sunset is sprinkled, it is the delicate and prosperous fireworks of Urumqi.
