Discover Tianshan Desert Highways in Northen Xinjiang

#discoverchina Exploring Southern Xinjiang by car is truly a unique and unforgettable journey. Driving through crisscrossed roads, passing by the majestic Tianshan Mountains and endless desert highways offers a mesmerising array of landscapes, with each turn revealing breathtaking views and stunning terrains. One of the most memorable moments was reaching the Karakoram Highway viewpoint. Standing there, surrounded by towering mountains and zigzagging roads that stretched endlessly, I felt like I was on top of the world. My driver mentioned that this legendary highway boasts more than 600 hairpin bends—a true marvel of engineering and nature. Usually, I struggle with carsickness on winding roads, but thanks to Veloxin, I could travel comfortably. It allowed me to fully enjoy and immerse myself in the beauty of the journey while capturing unforgettable scenes. This road trip perfectly blended adventure, nature, and wonder.
