On the way, we visited a scenic spot called "Black Oil Mountain," a petroleum geological park. Black oil is asphalt, and "Karamay" means black oil. Due to its highly specialized nature and lack of scenery, there were almost no tourists. In the afternoon, we arrived at the Urho District. As the sunlight was strong at that time, we checked into the hotel first to rest for a while and then headed to the "World Devil's City" at 6 p.m. World Devil's City (5A), a significant Yadan landform concentration area, is located on the northwestern edge of the Junggar Basin, within the Urho District of Karamay City. The Devil's City stretches from northwest to southeast, about 5 km long and 3 km wide. It is composed of a series of isolated mesas running approximately northwest to southeast, forming a masterpiece of nature's craftsmanship - the Yadan landform. There are two ways to explore the scenic area: taking a sightseeing bus along designated routes and attractions for sightseeing and photography, or self-driving around the periphery and deeper into the area. However, both options involve driving on washboard roads, which can be quite bumpy. We chose the former for a more comfortable and relaxing experience. To be honest, compared to the Duku Highway, this place pales in comparison. The Duku Highway's Yadan landforms are superior in terms of scale, height, and diversity. The use of "World" to describe this scenic area seems a bit far-fetched. Because of the area's fame, most tour groups visiting northern Xinjiang make it a must-see destination. We also came here to check it out. Seeing is believing, and it allows for comparison. Otherwise, Karamay would have been a blank space on our map, which wouldn't do justice to this heroic oil city that provides strategic resource security for the Republic. We left the scenic area at 8:30 p.m., with the sun still hanging in the sky, similar to around 4 p.m. in inland areas. Those who are young and fit can stay even later. Tomorrow, we are going to Altay.

Xinjiang is located in a high-altitude cold area. The climate in January is very cold. During this period, we may also engage in snow activities, so thermal underwear, down jackets, winter gloves and hats are indispensable. Cold-proof boots or shoes with large soles and non-slip are also necessary. In addition, it is recommended that glasses wearers prepare glasses straps or hat straps to prevent sunglasses and hats from flying away in strong winds. 🎒 Next is travel accessories. Vision is our main way of perception when traveling, so remember to bring your camera, mobile phone or video recorder, and make sure they are fully charged before going out. Friends who want to play in the snow can prepare skiing equipment, such as skis, ski tents, etc. In addition, sunscreen is also necessary to prevent sunburn from the strong light reflected from the snow. 📒 Finally, we have to talk about documents. When you go out, make sure to bring your ID card, driver's license or passport with you. In addition, you also need to prepare travel insurance and some necessary emergency contact information in case of any emergency. -------- Travel thousands of miles to the vastness of the country.
