Xinjiang – Blossoms Beneath Silk Road Skies

Spring in Xinjiang is a season of quiet wonder, where delicate blossoms bloom along ancient trade routes once walked by caravans and poets. In places like the Huocheng Apricot Valley and the Yili River Basin, the landscape awakens with bursts of white and pale pink, set against the timeless rhythm of village life. Shepherds guide flocks past blooming trees, and families picnic under petals, sharing stories and homemade bread. It’s not just a season—it’s a living tradition rooted in the land. #cherryblossom25
