Not in Provence | The lavender fields in Yili, Xinjiang are stunningly beautiful

Hello, all my digital girlfriends, Shi Qi is here Visiting Xinjiang, one must go to the lavender sea Many sisters go to Huocheng Huanghuang Village to see lavender Various farms and estates of the Princess of Solace But I recommend Tianshan Huahai Scenic Area more Who would have thought that this is still a niche spot 😂 The area of lavender here is very large It grows so vigorously Photography is also very free, because the area is too large, You can go wherever you want to take pictures, without being affected by other tourists ～ 📍Yili Tianshan Huahai Scenic Area (Gongliu County) 💰Ticket price: 60+ shuttle vehicle 20/person Self-driving ticket: 90/person 📸Photo sharing You will encounter some small areas on the road, But the more photogenic spots are concentrated in 👉 the Lavender Manor of ten thousand acres The area is really huge 😂, so I basically take photos exclusively, no one disturbs me 😎If you have a drone, congratulations, you will get many spectacular and beautiful photos 😀If you don't have a drone, don't worry, just hold your phone a little higher and take a high-angle shot, it's also quite amazing, The lavender here has a bit of a slope, but you need to walk an extra 5-10 minutes ～ ⏰Best time for shooting I suggest entering the park in the afternoon, you can wait for the sunset, it's really photogenic. I went on a cloudy day, who knew that a beautiful sunset would appear in the evening. It's best to bring a light, it's very atmospheric, my light was blown away, 😭 so regrettable 👗Outfit It's best to wear white, because the color of lavender is quite deep, and it matches white very well Besides that, light purple and light yellow are also good 📝Little tips ①Currently, lavender is the most beautiful in the scenic area, other flowers are less ②There's not much to eat in the scenic area ③If you have time, you can stay overnight in the scenic area to capture the sea of flowers at different times ④You can ride horses in the scenic area, the price is around 20 (negotiable), depending on the horse owner's mood 😂 it's actually quite photogenic. ～ I hope all my digital girlfriends can encounter good weather and take beautiful photos 😘

After returning from Xinjiang, let me speak some heartfelt truths

Just came back from a delightful trip in Xinjiang, from the vastness of Northern Xinjiang to the mystique of Southern Xinjiang. Although I encountered some minor setbacks along the way, I also enjoyed the beautiful scenery. I want to share these experiences with everyone, hoping they can help with your journeys! 👏 . 1️⃣ The four most worthwhile spots to check in ✔️ Nalati Grassland: Endless grasslands that are utterly refreshing! 🌾 ✔️ Sayram Lake: The lake is as clear as a mirror, breathtakingly beautiful! 🌊 ✔️ Tianshan Sea of Flowers: Fields of purple lavender, extremely romantic! 🌸 ✔️ Kashgar Old Town: Traces of history are everywhere, as if traveling back to ancient times! 🏰 2️⃣ Weather is really key!! 🌦️ ▫️ The grasslands and lakes of Xinjiang change with the weather. Overcast and sunny days are completely different worlds! ▫️ If you encounter a rare sunny day, don't hesitate, head straight to Sayram Lake and take a tour around the lake. 3️⃣ Hiking in Shipton's Arch requires good physical strength! 🚶‍♂️ ✔️ If you want to experience the magnificence of the snow-capped mountains up close, Shipton's Arch is a good choice, but it requires 1-2 hours of hiking, and the path is not easy. If you are traveling with the elderly or children, take it easy! ✔️ The shuttle bus in Shipton's Arch is very crowded, it is recommended to start early and try to return before 4 pm. 4️⃣ Thick clothes are a must! 🧥 Xinjiang has a large temperature difference between day and night, and the wind is strong. Even if the day is hot, you must bring thick clothes, otherwise, you will really get a runny nose from the cold! 5️⃣ Ili Grassland, 2-3 selections are enough! 🌾 ✔️ There are too many grasslands in Ili, and seeing too many can really lead to aesthetic fatigue! If you like snow-capped mountains, choose Shipton's Arch; if you like forests, choose Qiongkushitai or Chaxi; if you like grasslands, choose Nalati. ✔️ For Nalati, you can skip the internet-famous bridge, but you must go to the Panlong Valley Road, that's where the essence really is! 95% of people will miss this spot. 6️⃣ Golden hour for photography: 7-10 am/pm 📸 Morning and evening light is soft, especially in the evening when there's a high chance of seeing the sunset, the sky turns golden, making photos especially good, full of artistic conception! Oh, and the ultraviolet rays in Xinjiang are really strong, be sure to protect yourself from the sun! 🌞 . 👉👉 My itinerary ✅D1. Urumqi to S21 Desert Highway - Colorful Beach Sunset ✅D2. Burqin to Kanas Lake - Guanyu Pavilion ✅D3. Kanas Lake Morning Mist - Sanwan to Hemu Road ✅D4. Hemu to Hemu Village ✅D5. Burqin to Devil City to Baiyu Oilfield ✅D6.

Ili Tianshan Flower Sea Scenic Area—definitely worth a visit

The Ili Tianshan Flower Sea is an ocean of flowers. The lavender has not yet grown, but the variety of flowers available now are stunningly beautiful. The Sichuan cuisine at the scenic area's restaurant is superb. I plan to come back in August when the lavender will have grown tall, with fragrant air and beautiful scenery. Everyone is welcome to visit the Tianshan Flower Sea World, highly recommended. Attractions: Viewing scenery, playing amusement rides, tempting food Price: Affordable and worth it Queue: Organized, necessary, fast, safe, and reliable
