冬天的蝉鸣The most surprising thing about this trip to Akto was staying at the breathtakingly beautiful Muyun Camp! Facing Karakul Lake and Muztagh Ata, waking up every day felt like stepping into a painting. 🎨
✨Room Guide:
1⃣️ Xiyu Quiet Twin Room: A great value option. While it doesn't have a lake view, the amenities are every bit as good (private bathroom, oxygen tank, humidifier, oxygen concentrator), perfect for a budget-friendly family.
2⃣️ Qiyun Jiubie Twin Room: Floor-to-ceiling windows offer views of the snow-capped mountains and lake, allowing you to wake up in the morning and see the sun setting over the golden mountain.
3⃣️ Mufeng Lake View King Room: A must-see for couples! 180° panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows make gazing at the stars from the terrace incredibly romantic.
4⃣️ Mufeng Quiet Family Room: Family-friendly, offering space for the whole family and large windows for a comfortable night's sleep.
🌄Photo Tips:
▫️ 7 AM: Take photos of the mirror-like lake and golden snow-capped mountain reflections from a lake view room
▫️ 4 PM: Take photos of your back as you walk towards the snow-capped mountains from the meadow in front of the camp
▫️ 10 PM: Use a tripod to capture the starry sky and snow-capped mountains together (remember to bring a thick jacket!)
🍴Foodie Tips:
The restaurant is open until 10 PM! We highly recommend the Xinjiang Big Plate Chicken and freshly baked naan. The Northeastern Chinese dish, sweet and sour pork, is surprisingly authentic. A bowl of hot cola and ginger soup is a lifesaver in the highlands (no low-sugar options in the plateau).
💡Practical Tips:
• Don't panic if you have altitude sickness! Every room comes with an oxygen tank, and the front desk will ask if you have enough. How thoughtful!
• Drones are currently prohibited from flying. It seems the ban is from September 17, 2025, to October 5, 2025. It's a shame! The camp also offers aerial photography services (the camp also offers Hanfu (Chinese traditional clothing) experiences – wearing brightly colored clothing makes for stunning photos).
• Transportation: Charter a car from Kashgar for about 4 hours. Remember to download offline maps in advance.
Here, every day is awakened by snow-capped mountains and lulled to sleep by the starry sky. Even the mist from the humidifier is romantic. If you can only stay in one hotel in Akto, choose Muyun Camp! #XinjiangTravel #PlateauHotel #KarakulLake #SnowMountainViewRoom #PamirPlateau

**Travel photography guide for Eye of Pamir: Encounter the Garden of Gods by the Karakul Lake** Who says the world is not worth living? Stepping onto the Pamir Plateau, I saw the reflection of heaven on the mirror of **Karakul Lake**! This "black lake" is not in vain. The lake is as deep as black jade, but it can embrace the towering snow cap of **Muztagh Peak**, the nine-bladed cold front of **Konger Jiubie Peak**, and the flowing clouds and sky. **The beauty of the world discovered during the journey is often in the great silence of heaven and earth-** In the early morning or at dusk, when there is no wind by the lake, press the shutter, and you will get not only a photo, but also the unparalleled elegance of the solidified "Father of Iceberg" and "Jiubie Fairy" dancing together! (Camera position tips: The high ground on the east side of the lake, the telephoto compression of the distance between the lake and the mountain is excellent) When night falls, the warm yellow lights of **Muyun Camp** become the most moving heartbeat of this primitive land. Camping in the wilderness at an altitude of more than 3,600 meters, the bright stars are within reach above your head, and the silent silhouette of Muztagh Ata is in front of you. **The beauty of the world lies in the symphony of the grand and the small——** Set up a tripod and record with a slow shutter speed: the foreground is the warm halo of the tent in the camp, the middle ground is the silhouette of the sleeping yak, and the background is the snow peaks entangled by star tracks! (Experience Tips: The camp provides basic accommodation, and you must bring enough warm clothes and sleeping bags for the cold nights on the plateau) **The steepness of Gongger Jiubie Peak** is another kind of thrilling beauty. Going along the China-Pakistan Highway, the nine sharp snow peaks are like silver blades piercing the blue sky, forming a sharp contrast with the honest "father" image of Muztagh Ata. **Discovering beauty requires changing perspectives——** You might as well use a wide-angle lens to capture the extension of the road winding towards the snow peaks at a safe roadside parking spot, or wait for an eagle to fly over the peak to make the picture full of vitality! **Why plant grass? ** * **The birthplace of the ultimate scenery blockbuster:** The reflection of Karakul Lake, the starry sky of Muztagh Ata, and the steepness of Kongur Jiubie Peak, all of which are desktop-level beautiful scenery. * **Immersive plateau experience:** Muyun Camp allows you to truly "sleep in the scenery" and feel the alternation of day and night and the vastness of the Pamirs. * **Soul-shaking journey:** In absolute silence and vastness, re-recognize the power of nature and your own insignificance, and deeply understand the diversity and purity of "the beauty of the world". * **Cultural integration point:** You can feel the Kirgiz customs along the way, and the camp is also a good place to meet travelers from all over the world. **Practical tips:** * **Best season:** May-October (avoid severe cold and heavy snow). * **Transportation:** Self-driving (from Kashgar) or chartering a car, the road conditions are good but you need to pay attention to the altitude changes. * **Altitude sickness:** Kashgar Lake and the camp are at a high altitude, so be sure to adapt slowly and prepare medicines. * **Respect nature:** Take away all garbage and protect the fragile ecological environment. **Come to Pamir! ** Find paradise in the reflection of Karakul Lake, rest your soul under the stars in Muyun Camp, let the thousand-year-old ice and snow of Muztagh Ata and the sharp edge of Kongur Jiubie completely refresh your understanding of the "beauty of the world". This journey is enough to light up your lifelong memories! #PamirTravelPhotography #DiscoverTheBeautyofTheWorld #XinjiangCeiling
Strolling along the lakeside, breathing in the fresh air, all worries vanish. The lake water and snow-capped mountains reflect each other beautifully; Karakol Lake is a breathtaking sight.
