[2025 Gongliu Attraction] Travel Guide for Qiaxi Forest Park (Updated Mar)

After a trip to Xinjiang, my heartfelt feeling is! Apart from Xinjiang, the rest is elsewhere, no other place can replace it! Xinjiang is about to enter the most beautiful summer, this summer, you must go to Xinjiang 🌲 · ✈ Chengdu - Yining, rent a car for a self-driving tour 🚙 Total cost per person is 6k (excluding airfare) May in Yili has just entered spring, there is still snow in many places, the biggest advantage is that during the off-season, air tickets and hotel prices are cheap, and you can enjoy both the snow-capped mountains and some early blooming flowers🌼. June is the best time, with blooming flowers and green grass, but the snow mountains have melted, and the consumption is moderate. July and August are the peak tourist seasons, with all the lavender in Huocheng in full bloom, and the consumption is relatively high. · 🚙 My favorite places throughout the journey 【Nalati】 Self-driving 300/person, although the price is not cheap, it is truly worth it, I love Nalati the most, there are herds of cattle and sheep on the grassland, as well as snow-capped mountains and streams, you must wait for the sunset at the nomadic homes 【Qiaxi Forest Park】 Compared to Kuerdening, I prefer Qiaxi, it's as romantic as an oil painting, just like the movie scene of 'Heidi and Grandfather', I suggest staying in Gongliu 【Qiongkushitai】 The road to Qiongku is extremely beautiful, there is a snow mountain swing in front of the mountain, there is no need to be stubborn about the back mountain, the stay at Qingkong Jiyi is awesome 【Fairy Lake】 Although it requires hiking, the scenery is absolutely worth it 【Sailimu Lake】 Get up at 5 am to go to S bay to watch the sunrise, an unforgettable experience, it is a beautiful scene that will be remembered for a lifetime . 🚙12-day trip recommendation 1. Chengdu - Urumqi 2. Huocheng - Sailimu Lake (must see the sunrise) 3. Sailimu Lake - Guozigou Bridge - Huocheng Lavender, stay in Yining or Huanghuang Village 4. Yining - Tekes - Qiongkushitai 5. Qiongkushitai 6. Qiongkushitai - Kalajun Grassland - Stay in Zhaosu 7. Xatage scenic area - Stay in Tekes Bagua City at night 8. Tekes - Tekes River - Qiaxi Forest Park - Nalati, stay in the town 9. Nalati Grassland Scenic Area 10. Nalati - Northern section of Duku Highway - Tangbula - Fairy Lake, stay in Tangbula 11. Tangbula - Northern section of Duku Highway - Urumqi · 🌟Precautions 1. Prepare mosquito repellent 2. Choose an SUV for car rental, the roads to Qiongkushitai and Qiaxi are not very good 3. The temperature difference between morning and evening is large, you can experience four seasons in one day 4. If you want to take pictures of the sunrise at Sailimu Lake and don't want to stay in the scenic area, you can enter from the east gate before 9 am (the south gate does not check tickets)

When the first spring breeze sweeps through Zhaosu, deep within the folds of the Tianshan Mountains, the rustling sound of melting ice and snow awakens the sleeping valley. Snowmelt meanders down the folds of thousand-year-old rock faces, refracting diamond-like shards of light on the quartzite, like the first teardrop shed at the beginning of creation. A mysterious costume change is taking place on the alpine meadows at an altitude of 2,500 meters. The morning mist, still an ink-wash silk, is instantly transformed into flowing emerald satin by the sunlight. Primroses, snowdrops, and wild tulips bloom one after another. When the hooves of herders' horses tread across the streams, the splashing water droplets seem to hold fragments of rainbows. Wisps of smoke rise from the white yurts of the Kazakh herders, intertwining with the mist at the tips of the spruce trees. Sheep graze on dew-kissed new grass, the clear ringing of the bronze bells around their necks startling snow finches from the crevices in the rocks. Old herders, squinting at the distant mountains, have smiles in their wrinkles that are more serene than the rhythm of melting snow—they can read the signs of spring hidden in the rings of the spruce trees and see the yearning for upward growth in every plant. As dusk paints the snow-capped peaks rose gold, the mountain streams begin to chant spring's epic poem in seven tones. The faint fragrance of wild apple blossoms drifts through the valley, mingling with the aroma of freshly baked baursaks, brewing into intoxicating kumis as the crescent moon rises. In such a spring, even time is willing to lose its way. The spring of Zhaosu is a love letter from the Creator to the earth, and you are the reader of this poem. Pack your bags, let the mountain breeze kiss your hair, let the clouds fall into your eyes, and embark on a date with the mountains and rivers, breathing together~🌅✨

“Nothing can stop you from yearning for freedom.” Every time I hear this song, I think of the wonderful moments of my self-drive tour in Yili. 🕐️DAY 1: Urumqi—Anjihai Grand Canyon—Jinghe 13:00 Arrive in Urumqi, Xinjiang. Pick up the car at the airport, an orange Tank 300. Have a meal at Loulan BBQ (Yingbin Road Branch), then head to Anjihai Grand Canyon. This is a great first stop for a self-drive tour. The scenery on the way to Anjihai is already stunning. The sky is high and the clouds are light, the view is vast and desolate, and there are snow-capped mountains in the distance. In the evening, arrive in Jinghe County and check in to the hotel to prepare for tomorrow's trip to Sayram Lake, Bole. 🕐️DAY 2: Sayram Lake—Guozigou Bridge—Yining City Morning: Head to Sayram Lake, Bole. When we first arrived, the weather was not good, it was overcast and gloomy. Keep going, and after passing the south gate, the weather cleared up. The sun shone down, and the color of the lake and the surrounding grassland scenery became as beautiful and stunning as the legends say. As we drove forward, the scenery was overwhelming. On the left, there was a multi-layered green grassland and cedar forest, and on the right, the blue of Sayram Lake was clearly visible in the sunlight. The road ahead stretched straight to the snow-capped mountains in the distance. The vast, magnificent, and multi-layered scenery made us excited and thrilled. Evening: Leave Sayram Lake Scenic Area at 7:30 pm and head to Guozigou Bridge. The stunning scenery began after driving down from the Guozigou Bridge viewing platform. After descending to the bottom of the valley and moving forward, we experienced the first shock and excitement of this trip. We drove through the mountains, with towering and steep mountains on both sides, changing vegetation, and occasional white yurts and cattle and sheep. It felt unreal, as if we were driving through a painting. Arrive at the hotel at 11 pm and have a big plate of chicken. 🕐️DAY 3: Yining—Yizhao Highway—Xiata Morning: First, we went to Liuxing Street in Yining City for breakfast. Then, the highlight of the day was the Yizhao Highway, known as the "Little Duku Highway." We drove for 8.5 hours, stopping and going, and arrived at the homestay near Xiata Ancient Road National Forest Park at around 8 or 9 pm. Today's trip on the Yizhao Highway left a deep impression on us. We started driving along the mountain, and every turn revealed different scenery, both dangerous and vast. There were winding roads, cliffs, and towering mountains in front of us, as well as deep mountains and vast skies, grasslands, and snow-capped mountains in the distance. The near, middle, and distant views were all natural. Every time we stopped, we stood by the cliff and seemed to automatically ignore the sound of passing cars. As we slowly looked into the distance, a feeling of emptiness, grandeur, insignificance, and silence naturally emerged, and we enjoyed it. In addition, there were changes. The magical thing was that after a turn, the deep brown three-dimensional mountain scenery suddenly turned into a vast grassland like a green carpet. Looking up, the sky was high and the clouds were light, and eagles were soaring. Looking down, a horse stood alone on a distant mountain, eating grass like a still life painting. Looking down again, the grassland canyon had undulating terrain, stretching to the depths of the distant mountains, with flocks of white sheep and dark cattle and horses in the mountain valleys. We continued forward, left the Yizhao Highway, turned onto County Road 758, passed several small towns, and approached Xiata. As we drove forward, there was a fairy-tale-like tranquility on the right, with a vast grassland, and on the left, a vast grassland in the foreground and silent mountains in the distance. The sky was extremely blue, the clouds were extremely white, and they were low. In the evening, we checked in to a homestay near Xiata. DAY 4: Xiata—Qiongkushitai Morning: Go to Xiata, where people wear all kinds of clothes, from short sleeves to jackets and down jackets. First, take a bus for 40 minutes, then take a sightseeing bus to the transfer bridge. Transfer Bridge—General Bridge—Kara House No. 1—Kara House No. 2. We should have reached between No. 2 and No. 3. The highlight of Xiata's scenery is the view of Muzart Glacier from the corridor-like canyon. Along the way, the mountains surround us, the grassland extends from the foot of the mountain through the tall cedar forest, and the river formed by glacial meltwater accompanies us. We rested in a shady mountain forest and saw the first squirrel. Later, we saw several more squirrels and a marmot, eating naan and looking cute. We calculated the time to Qiongkushitai and started to return. At around 6 pm, we left the scenic area and headed to Qiongkushitai. The road to Qiongkushitai was particularly challenging, with three mountains and two valleys, various hairpin turns, folding turns, and continuous 360-degree turns. It felt like we made 1,800 turns along the way... It was an unprecedented driving experience, with adrenaline pumping, excitement, and thrill. We continued forward, entered the dense forest in the mountains, and finally reached Qiongkushitai Village. DAY 5: Qiongkushitai—Wusun Ancient Road—Back Mountain—Xinyuan, Yili After breakfast at the homestay, we went to Wusun Ancient Road in the morning. We walked along a rushing river into the dense forest. We were on the left bank of the river, walking through the mountains and forests, occasionally encountering a few wooden house homestays and many silent horses grazing and resting. On the right bank of the river, there were grasslands, forests, and homestays nearby, and mountains in the distance. The mountain road was difficult to walk, with tree roots, strange rocks, and muddy horse trails. More people chose to ride horses back and forth. We went back to pack our luggage, left the homestay, and went to the back mountain. We didn't spend much time in the back mountain. If we have the chance to come again, I even feel like we should spend more time there than on Wusun Ancient Road. Then we went down the mountain and planned to reach Nalati Tourist Scenic Area, Xinyuan, from Qiongkushitai, to prepare for tomorrow's trip on the Duku Highway. We left a bit late, and calculated that it would take until 11 or 12 pm to reach Nalati, which would affect our meals and rest. So we got off the highway in Xinyuan, Yili, and stayed overnight. We arrived at the hotel in Xinyuan at around 11 pm. DAY 6: Duku Highway—Dushanzi District, Karamay, Dushanzi City Today's plan was to drive on the Duku Highway, from Xinyuan to Nalati, and then from Nalati to Dushanzi, which is equivalent to half of the Duku Highway. After getting on the Duku Highway from Nalati, the first half was relatively flat. We turned at Qiaerma and went to Tangbula Hundred Mile Gallery for a look. After passing Qiaerma, the scenery began to change. When we set off from Nalati in the morning, there was vegetation on both sides of the mountains, and everything was green. But here, the mountains began to turn gray-brown or even gray-black, and they became steeper and more dangerous. The change started at Hashilegen, at an altitude of 3,400 meters. In one photo, the sky was clear and the scenery was clear. In the next photo, the gray-white fog had already enveloped the background. The weather on the mountain changed suddenly, with fog and sporadic rain. We continued forward and reached a parking lot, where it had already turned into thick fog. We played in the snow for a while. When we set off again, the visibility was very low, and we drove slowly along the winding mountain road with the hazard lights on. After descending to a lower altitude, the fog began to dissipate, and the air was clear as if it had been washed, but it started to rain. At 10:30, we arrived in Dushanzi and left the Duku Highway. On the way into Dushanzi City, we suddenly saw the distant city lights in the darkness, and we felt a slight sense of returning to the world. DAY 7: Return trip, Urumqi—Xinzheng Airport.

| Not inferior to Switzerland, China’s Chasi is the god! ! . Xinjiang | Not inferior to Switzerland, China's Chasi is the god! ! Every grassland in Xinjiang seems to have its own magic, growing wildly and wantonly! ! ! Here, grasslands, valleys, spruce trees, snow-capped mountains and streams are intertwined, creating one stunning scene after another. If you want to come to Xinjiang, the best time is May to June. Xinjiang is in its heyday at this time. I like Qiasi~not only because of its freedom and vastness, but also because of the various landscapes I pass by along the way. Otherwise, why would it be known as the "Qiaxi Scroll"? Since we signed up for a group, I only remember how to play, but I don’t know the specific walking route~ Hehehe ~ Below I will share what I saw and heard ~ 🎫Ticket price: 30 yuan/person 🚙Transportation: Ours was a 5-seater SUV, which was super comfortable; ⏰Time: The earlier you go, the better. The earlier you go, the more obvious the snow line of Tianshan Mountain will be, and the better the photos will be. Secondly, the scenic area limits 1,500 vehicles to enter every day, so it is best to go early. 🏫Accommodation: It is recommended to stay in the city, not in the scenic area, because the price is too high and there are too few food options! ! If you want to have a better experience, that's fine. Secondly, there is a wooden swing there. It is recommended that you wear light-colored or skin-revealing clothes so that you can look beautiful no matter how you take photos! ! ! ⭕️ Tips: ①The temperature on the mountain changes greatly, and there is also rainy weather, so you should prepare warm or waterproof clothes. If you don’t mind the weight, you can also bring an umbrella. ② It is best to prepare some dry food, because the driving distance is long, so if you get hungry on the road, it is difficult to find a restaurant, so you need to solve this problem by yourself~ ③The ultraviolet rays in Xinjiang are really strong, so remember to wear sunscreen! ! ! The bloody lesson of the past ~ crying ~ ❣️Finally, I wish you all a happy time in Xinjiang~ If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them in the comment section. I will reply to you if I see and know them~

but that Qiaxi, Yili is more cost-effective❤️ When people think of Yili, they often think of its charming summer scenery, but in fact, Yili in winter also has breathtaking scenery. The snow-covered landscape and the evergreen spruce forest complement each other, and its beauty is no less than that of Hemu. In winter, the cost of flights and accommodation to Hemu often rises, while Yili, also located in northern Xinjiang, offers a more affordable option. ✈️: You can fly directly from Chengdu to Yining. 📍: We recommend you visit Qiaxi Forest Park. 🎫: During the off-season, the park is open for free, and you can even drive in.

| China's Chaxi is as beautiful as Switzerland! 🎫Ticket price: CNY 30/person 🚙Transportation: We took a 5-seater SUV, which was super comfortable. ⏰Time: The earlier you go, the better. The snow line of the Tianshan Mountains is more obvious in the morning, which makes for better photos. The scenic area also limits the number of cars to 1,500 per day, so it's best to go early. 🏫Accommodation: We recommend staying in the city rather than the scenic area, as the prices are high and there are few food options. If you want a better experience, you can stay in the scenic area. There is also a wooden swing there. We recommend wearing light-colored or bright clothes, or clothes that show more skin. You'll look great in photos! ⭕️Tips: ① The temperature on the mountain changes a lot, and it can rain, so bring warm or waterproof clothes. If you don't mind the weight, you can also bring an umbrella. ② Bring some snacks. The drive is long, and it's hard to find restaurants on the way, so you'll need to bring your own food. ③ The UV rays in Xinjiang are very strong, so remember to wear sunscreen! This is a lesson learned from experience. ❣️I hope you have a great time in Xinjiang! If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment. I'll reply if I see it and know the answer.

Every grassland in Xinjiang seems to have its own magic, growing wildly and wantonly! ! ! Here, grasslands, valleys, spruce trees, snow-capped mountains and streams are intertwined, but they create one extremely shocking scene after another. I like Qiasi, not only because of its freedom and vastness, but also because of the various landscapes I pass by along the way. Otherwise, why would it be known as the "Qiaxi Scroll"? Since we signed up for a group, I only remember how to play, but I don’t know the specific walking route~ Hehehe

On the 11th day of the Northern Xinjiang Autumn Tour, we visited Qaxi National Forest Park. Qaxi National Forest Park is located at the northern foot of the Western Tian Shan Mountains. On the 5th day of the tour, we visited Jiangbulake Scenic Area in Qitai County. Jiangbulake Scenic Area is located at the northern foot of the Eastern Tian Shan Mountains. Both are in the Tian Shan Mountains and have snow-capped mountains, forests, and alpine meadows, but they are located in the east and west, respectively, and their management levels are different. I personally prefer Jiangbulake Scenic Area. In the evening, we stayed at the Xinyuan County Liancheng Eco-Hotel. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and our leader Lao Chou arranged a dinner for all 56 of us to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival together!

At the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, there is a place like a fairyland - Qiaxi Scenic Area. This is a magnificent masterpiece of nature, a sanctuary for the soul. Walking into Qiaxi feels like stepping into a beautiful landscape painting. The continuous green mountains surround it, like loyal guards protecting this pure land. The lush trees on the mountains sway gently with the breeze, making a rustling sound, as if telling ancient stories. The clear streams rush happily, splashing water, playing a moving melody. The grass by the stream is like a green velvet carpet, dotted with colorful flowers, as if stars have fallen on the earth. Under the blue sky and white clouds, herds of cattle and sheep graze leisurely, and the shepherd's songs float in the air, a sincere praise of life. The beauty of Qiaxi lies not only in its natural scenery but also in its tranquility and peace. Here, time seems to stand still, all worries are left behind, leaving only inner calm and serenity.

You will be turned back on the way to Tarim Park! The original leader had something come up, so a new driver was arranged to take us around. Unexpectedly, the driver was not familiar with the Qiaxi and Qiata loop, and we only found out at the entrance of Qiaxi that business cars are not allowed on the Qiata loop. The Qiata loop was a highly anticipated part of this trip to Ili, but now we can only return disappointed. Since we were already there, the driver took us for a short drive until we were turned back. We didn't stop at all, just hurriedly took some initial impressions of Qiaxi from the car. Because we trusted the original leader, we didn't do any prior research, but we didn't expect the subsequent developments to be like a domino effect, with our expectations falling one after another. That's how it is on the road; even if you prepare in advance, unexpected things can still happen. Since that's the case, we might as well go with the flow. It's okay, we'll come back next time to see the beautiful Qiaxi and take the thrilling Qiata loop!

Everyone says that Chaxi Forest is the greenest grassland in Ili So in June We embarked on another trip to Northern Xinjiang This is the departure to drive the Tank 300 along the Chaxi loop line, the scenery is really beautiful All the essence is summarized ❤️❤️❤️ The best spot for photos in Chaxi Forest Is the small hillside to the left of the Chaxi Scroll That place is great for taking photos of the land and the sky Let me tell you about a very niche photo spot in Chaxi After navigating to the Chaxi Scroll, continue driving forward for about 5 kilometers You will encounter a signpost with a left turn sign and a horn symbol, that's the destination Two 🌲 big trees stand here When the sunlight shines into the forest, it looks like the Twilight Saga. Recommended routes in the scenic area ⭕️ Route 1: Visitor Center → Swallow Bridge → Shimen Waterfall → Chaxi Holy Spring → Chaxi Scroll → Martyrs' Tomb → Tarim Manor → Visitor Center ⭕️ Route 2: Visitor Center → Chaxi Panorama → Chaxi Scroll → Martyrs' Tomb → Tarim Manor → Visitor Center Recommended attractions in Chaxi 📍 Chaxi Scroll 📍 Shimen Waterfall 📍 Tarim Grassland 📍 Viewing Platform 📍 Swallow Bridge 🎫 Tickets: 30/person 🧭 Navigation: Chaxi Forest Park, you can also navigate to Chaxi Scroll, the last section of the road to Chaxi Scroll is not recommended for sedans and business cars, the road is slightly rough. 👔 Clothing: It is recommended to wear bright and eye-catching colors, girls can wear dresses, the more you spin, pull the skirt, and make large movements, the better it looks

Chaxi's tickets are quite affordable, 30 yuan per person and no charge for cars. Drive a dozen kilometers to the first parking lot. The first parking lot doesn't have much scenery, but it has specialty restaurants and Mongolian yurts for accommodation, a supermarket, and the prices for the restaurant and accommodation are posted by the roadside. Accommodation costs 400 yuan for an eight-person yurt, 600 yuan for a ten-person yurt, and 800 yuan for more than ten people. After leaving the first parking lot, there is a stream along the road where many people set up tents to stay by the stream. Continue driving to the central station's second parking lot, which is large and has restrooms with electricity. From the left side of the parking lot, take the boardwalk to the top of the mountain to see the Chaxi panorama. It takes about fifty minutes to walk to the top. We arrived at the end of July, the grass wasn't very green, and there were no snow-capped mountains. Chaxi's most beautiful season is late May to early June, when you can see the tender green grasslands and snow-capped mountains, with a very strong sense of layering. There's no need to visit other attractions, the waterfall isn't very impressive. Cars with less than seven seats can take the Chaxi loop road out. The gravel road is not easy to drive on, and RVs are not allowed! If you drive the loop road, you can drive directly to the viewing platform without walking the boardwalk, but you can't park for too long. You can take some photos. If it's August, I suggest not going. The scenery isn't as beautiful, and the grass along the road has turned yellow.

Two years ago, I came to Qiaxi Forest Park for the first time. I was attracted by this small park with few tourists and pleasant scenery. Now I went to Qiaxi again. The ticket price remains unchanged at 30 yuan, and there is no need to pay extra for self-driving. I really recommend everyone to come here to play. 📍Location: Qiaxi Forest Park Ticket: 30 yuan (purchase directly offline) Transportation: It is recommended to drive there by yourself, and SUV and off-road vehicles have a better experience Recommended check-in: Qiaxi Painting Scroll: It is recommended to park the car below and then climb up to take pictures. Qia-Ta Loop: The essence of Qiaxi is to start from Qiaxi Forest Park and drive all the way to Tarim Forest Park. Along the way, you will pass through forests, grasslands, jungles, canyons, cliffs, streams, cattle and sheep. The road condition is not too good, SUV and off-road vehicles can pass, you can stop at anything interesting along the way 📝Suggestions: The signal in the scenic area is not good, it is recommended to bring necessary cash, you can buy food such as lamb skewers freshly grilled by herders It is inconvenient to eat and stay in the scenic area, it is recommended to bring snacks, water, dry food, and self-heating rice is highly recommended. You don’t need to worry about hot water, it’s very convenient It is not recommended to stay too long in the Qiaxi Painting Scroll, the latter is the essence Currently, the Qiata Loop Line is not open, you can only drive to the location of the Martyrs’ Tomb, be sure to climb the wooden platform next to it, you can take a photo with the snow-capped mountains

Chaxi has already turned green and no one is talking about it. || In previous years, the grass only started to grow sparsely in early May, and it wasn't until the end of May when the temperature in Ili rose that the grasslands would turn lush green. But!! By the end of April this year, Ili has already started to turn green, so visiting Ili in early May won't disappoint. - 📍Chaxi "The Jiangnan beyond the Great Wall is in Ili, and the most beautiful part of Ili is Chaxi." Every year, the earliest green grasslands in Xinjiang are in Chaxi, and this year is no exception. It has valleys, snow-capped mountains, forests, and grasslands... It's like stepping into the movie "Heidi and Grandpa." - 1⃣️Ticket: 30/person (really worth it) 2⃣️Self-driving: You need an SUV/off-road vehicle to drive the Chaxi loop, and sedans need to switch to shuttle buses. The beautiful scenery is all along this route, truly stunning! 3⃣️Shooting location: Inside Chaxi Forest Park, Gongliu County 4⃣️Opening hours: 9:00-20:00 It's recommended to go after 15:00, as the light is softer between 7-9 pm, making it even more beautiful if you wait for the sunset! However, you need to return the same way, and there are no street lights. 5⃣️Accommodation: Only Mongolian yurts are available, but the conditions are quite limited. You can stay in nearby Gongliu County or Ku'erdening Town. - Chaxi Loop Attractions 📍Chaxi Scroll: Snow-capped mountains, grasslands, forests, valleys, waterfalls, cattle, and sheep, just like stepping into a Hayao Miyazaki manga. It's also a popular spot on social media. 📍Tarim Grassland: It has both grasslands and forest valleys. The spruces deep inside are taller and denser, giving a sense of depth. 📍Viewing Platform: From here, you can overlook the entire Chaxi. 📍Shimen Waterfall: The scenery is nice, but the temperature is low, and there's no signal. Be prepared before you go. 📍Swallow Bridge: The most beautiful mountain grasslands are at Swallow Bridge Station. - Transportation Guide! 1. There is no public transportation here, only self-driving. The road is not easy to drive. 2. Chaxi self-driving cars are limited to 1500 cars per day. - Photography Spots The scenery is beautiful all along the way, and you can take photos anytime with a high success rate! The viewing platform lives up to its name, as it unfolds like a painting before your eyes. You can also take photos a few steps down the boardwalk. Driving a bit further from the viewing platform to the Tarim Forest Park, you'll find grasslands and spruce forests, which are also very beautiful. - Outfit Sharing 1. Ethnic style! Various tassel outfits. 2. Light-colored dresses! Take pastoral-style photos in the grasslands and spruce forests. 3. Denim style! Take a few cool and sassy photos. - Tips: 1. Non-off-road vehicles cannot drive inside. 2. You need to make a reservation in advance on the official account. 3. The road to Chaxi is not easy to drive, and it gets slippery when it rains. 4. Besides Chaxi Grassland in May, Ku'erdening and Tarim Forest Park are also the earliest green grasslands in Ili. If you have time, it's worth visiting these places. Ili has many beautiful grasslands, but you must slow down to truly experience them. -

💑 In the summer of 2024, join hands with your beloved and meet in the enchanting Xinjiang. Majestic snow mountains, verdant grasslands, crystal-clear lakes, and herds of cattle and sheep compose a picture of a paradise on earth, captivating the heart and soul😭. Last year, my six-day trip to Yili left me with countless wonderful memories and photos📷. Here are the must-visit places I highly recommend👇: 1️⃣ Sayram Lake - Known as 'the last tear of the Atlantic', Sayram Lake is especially blue in June and July. If you're lucky, you might even encounter elegant swans🦢. 2️⃣ Guozigou Bridge - Located near the south gate of Sayram Lake, from here you can take in the spectacular snow mountains, dense forests, and the majestic bridge, as if you are in a vivid painting, definitely worth a visit! 3️⃣ Xiatatu - This place is a convergence of glaciers, forests, and grasslands, offering a rich and colorful natural landscape. For those who love adventure and hiking, Xiatatu is undoubtedly an excellent choice. 4️⃣ Qiongkushitai - After a three-hour winding mountain road, we arrived at this undeveloped Kazakh village 'Qiongkushitai'. Riding horses through the back mountain trails, the scenery along the way is breathtaking, with distant snow mountains, grasslands, swings, and log cabins forming a touching picture. If time permits, do not miss the romantic sunset here🌇. 5️⃣ Qiaxi Forest Park - For a panoramic view of the primeval forest, Qiaxi is the best choice. Drive directly to Qiaxi's painting, every scene is worth capturing as a desktop wallpaper😭. Self-driving is convenient, but the roads may be rugged, so drive carefully~ 6️⃣ Nalati Grassland - In Nalati, we chose to drive through two routes: the sky grassland and the valley grassland. The magnificent scenery of Nalati, the flat roads, the wildflowers everywhere, and the valley grassland under the snow mountains make one linger and forget to return, very suitable for family travel, enjoyable for all ages! 7️⃣ Yining Liuxing Street - Don't miss this place, set aside one to two days to stroll through the colorful streets of Liuxing Street, capture beautiful photos of the interplay of light and shadow📸, and taste authentic Xinjiang cuisine: yogurt ice cream, pilaf, mixed noodles, barbecue, big plate chicken, Xinjiang fried rice noodles, and sweet melons and fruits🍉. The summer in Xinjiang Yili is as wonderful as a dream!!! ㊗️ Wishing everyone's trip is filled with laughter and beauty~

Northern Xinjiang: The scenery is mainly high mountains ▲, grassland and river valley landscapes, with main attractions including Kanas, Hemu, Sayram Lake, Nalati, etc. It is recommended to deeply explore the natural scenery. Suitable for travel from June to September, the weather is relatively cool in summer, and the scenery is also very good. You must see the lavender sea of flowers in summer.

🚩Depart from Gongliu Bus Station and embark on a mesmerizing journey to Qiaxi! ✨ Share a ride to Qiaxi near Gongliu Passenger Transport Station, 50 RMB per person. Be sure to keep the driver's phone number; you'll rely on it for the return trip, and the driver can arrange everything perfectly. The Qiaxi entrance ticket is only 30 RMB. Riding a horse up the mountain for about thirty to forty minutes costs 80 RMB and allows you to experience a different scenery. Or bravely choose to walk up the wooden plank road to the top. Personally tested: riding up the mountain and walking down the plank road is easy and not tiring! There's also a 20 RMB shuttle that can take you to the Qiaxi Waterfall, but I personally find this route a bit bland. It's better to complete the wooden plank road first, then take the shuttle to check out the waterfall. If you're returning to Gongliu on the same day and there are many people, the felt tents in Qiaxi are also a good accommodation choice. 💡Pro Tips: Make sure to protect yourself from the sun, and a sun protection jacket is essential! Bring a light jacket in case it rains and gets cold. Don't forget an umbrella! Wear leggings so you can roll and sit on the grassland as you wish, and they also protect against mosquito bites. For food, bring instant rice and bread that can be eaten right away, as there's no hot water supply for instant noodles. Friends who go after the end of June, it's advised not to go, as the snow on the glaciers has mostly melted. Don't hesitate, come to Qiaxi and give yourself a unique and free journey!

If you blindly pursue more attractions, the itinerary will be really rushed❗It will be very tiring overall❗ ⛔The grasslands in Yili are very beautiful, and there are many choices, but too many choices will also cause aesthetic fatigue❗ ⛔The difference between a photography leader accompanying the whole trip and an ordinary driver not bringing a drone into the scenic area is two different concepts. Whether it is shooting technology, service, or experience, they are worlds apart❗ .

Healing, Precautions: 3. Xinjiang is beautiful but really big, and the journey between attractions is very long. It is recommended to join a small group tour that includes accommodation and transportation, which can save a lot of effort and also provide companions for taking photos. 2. There is a large temperature difference between day and night, so be sure to bring enough clothes. Light colors are recommended for summer, which stand out in photos. 3. Sunglasses and sunscreen are essential, and it's good to have snacks on hand. There are many winding roads, so bring something to prevent motion sickness.

The Wind of Chaxi Awaits Your Freedom Chaxi National Forest Park Southern Jiangnan in Ili, the Most Beautiful in Ili is Chaxi Snow-capped Tianshan Mountains, Snow Ridge Spruce with Interlaced Light and Shadow Chaxi, a paradise for self-driving tours, with very low entrance fees, is full of beautiful scenery, including snow-capped mountains, grasslands, flowers, and forests, making it hard to leave... 'The sky is vast, the wild is boundless, the wind blows the grass low to see the cattle and sheep.' This poem is perfect to describe the magnificent scenery of the Chaxi Grassland in Xinjiang. Here, it is a richly colored painting meticulously crafted by nature, a green gem hidden deep in the Ili River Valley of Xinjiang, and a green wonderland that every soul yearning for freedom and tranquility looks forward to.

Every grassland in Xinjiang seems to have its own magic, growing wildly and unrestrained!!! Here, grasslands, valleys, spruces, snow-capped mountains, and streams are intricately interwoven, yet they create one after another of the most stunning scenes If you want to visit Xinjiang~ the best time would be in May and June~ That's when Xinjiang is in its 'golden age' oh~ I like Kashgar~ not just for its freedom and vastness, but also for the various landscapes along the way. Otherwise, why would it be called the 'Kashgar Scroll'? Since we were on a group tour, I only remember how to have fun, but I don't know the exact route anymore~ hehehe ~Let me share a bit about what I've seen and heard~ Ticket price: 30 yuan/person Transportation: We had a 5-seater SUV, super comfortable; Time: The earlier you go, the better, mainly because the snow line on the Tianshan Mountains will be more visible, which means better photos~ Also, the scenic area limits 1500 vehicles per day, so it's best to go early~ Accommodation: It's recommended to stay in the city area, not in the scenic area, because the prices are too high and there are too few food options!! But if you want a better experience, that's also okay!!! Warm tips: ① The temperature on the mountain changes a lot, and there may be rainy weather, so be sure to prepare warm or waterproof clothing~ If you don't mind the weight, bringing an umbrella is also okay~ ② It's best to bring more dry food, because the drive is long, and it's hard to find restaurants on the way, so you'll need to take care of that yourself~ ③ The ultraviolet rays in Xinjiang are really super strong, remember to apply sunscreen!!! A lesson learned from someone who's been there~ crying~
