Wusun Ancient Road was the transportation artery of Wusun State in the Western Regions of the Han Dynasty to Guizi Country, and was the throat running through the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains. This road has been used since the Han Dynasty to the Qing and Republic of China, and was used by the Qing government when quelling the Great and Small and Zhuo rebellions. Today, there are still many forts, beacons and passes, such as on the cliffs on both sides of the valley where the Bozikerg ditch is, there are Hanwen carved stones of the Guizizuo general "Liu Pingguo Zhiguan Ting Song" in the fourth year of the Yongshou of the Eastern Han Dynasty (158 AD), the ancient camp plate of Bozikelge, and the ruins of the bunker.
Walk on the Wusun Ancient Road, which is more than 100 kilometers deep
Above splendid alpine steppes and forests
Four thousand meters of Daban, blowing a fierce cold wind
The magnificent and boundless snow line of the Tianshan Mountains
Enough to make you remember it for a lifetime
The beauty of the crown, the grandeur and magnificence, the unique beauty... Only by going there in person can you experience the shock of all three!
2,000 years ago, a beautiful lady walked on this ancient road and entered the royal family of Guizi. Once upon a time, the carriage was very slow, and King Guzi fell in love with Shi, the daughter of Princess Xiang.
For love, King Guzi wants to cross the Tianshan Mountain, walk along the Tianshan ravine, rely on horses and human legs, walk through this ancient road, walk through thousands of mountains and rivers, and walk a lake on the mountain - Paradise Lake. Stepped on a famous love road - Wusun Ancient Road.
Princess Shi crossed the Tianshan Mountains from this road and married King Guzi, and the power of this love also made Guizi the best neighbor with Dahan among the 36 countries of the Western Regions, consolidating Dahan's dominance over the Western Regions.
She is a beautiful road full of extreme temptation
This 130-kilometer Damei Road, which runs north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, connects the Junggar Basin in the north and the Tarim Oasis in the south, and runs through the north-south throat of the Tianshan Mountains. It is called the most beautiful ancient road in Xinjiang by many donkey friends who have walked by.
Along the way, she covers grasslands, dense forests, snow-capped mountains, glaciers, lakes and other landscapes, which is breathtaking and breathtaking.
Her beauty is diverse, plump, and extreme, atmospheric and delicate, thick and delicate, with hardships and challenges, and more suffocating scenery and temptation.
Junkushtai - On this ancient road there is a small village of Kazakh herders, it is Junkushtai, which is a national historical and cultural village.
Located at the north entrance of the Wusun Ancient Road, Qiongkushtai Village is hidden deep in the grassland, surrounded by mountains and built by the water, which can be called a paradise.
The houses in the small village are made of logs and have a lot of character. And the hardworking Kazakhs have always lived a leisurely life here, riding horses and shepherding sheep, peaceful and beautiful.
Qiongkushtai Village has a magnificent Qiongkushtai grassland, which is the most beautiful grassland in China, like the waves of the sea, with the smooth and soft texture of flannel.
It is a land of aerial grasslands, hanging gardens, and pristine virgins, with a kind of extinct and independent beauty.
Cattle, sheep and horses are scattered like stars on the grassland, forming a magnificent picture with the white snow-capped mountains in the distance, the dark green Tianshan spruce, the white felt houses and the blue sky.
In this vast grassland, riding a horse, riding the wind, and the heart is also vast; Observing the simple and beautiful life of the herdsmen, the heart also calmed down.
Paradise Lake - Paradise Lake in the depths of Wusun Ancient Road, is a rare large lake in Xinjiang, the calm surface of the lake is like a huge sky realm, reflecting the blue sky, white snow mountains, and your figure.
Due to the surrounding pure land of bliss, the stars of the world hold the moon around this pool of blue water, coupled with the change of clouds, climate and seasonal changes, the lake will take on different colors such as blue, green, and white.
Sometimes, even in just one day, the lake can change into different colors, suddenly blue, suddenly bright blue, suddenly light green, suddenly dark green... Whenever the breeze blows and ripples, the surface of the lake will suddenly become bright, suddenly mysterious, and full of mysterious atmosphere.
If it is just pure silence, Paradise Lake is no longer a paradise lake, but can only be regarded as a fairy tale world.
However, the tranquil lake is coincidentally connected with ice waterfalls, snowy mountains and river beaches, so that the original tranquility is no longer simple, but rigid and gentle combined with flying, and has the spirituality of life.
Paradise Lake, absolutely worthy of its name, only by walking through, can you experience its unparalleled beauty!
As a walking mountain friend said:
When I'm old
When I was like a shooting star in the vast sky
Or the moving sand disappears as abruptly
My love was irresistibly suspended
Let me be reincarnated and go to Paradise Lake to be one that can be sincere
The golden stone is the northern goat that turns the mountain...
Tian Shan Forest – Everyone has their own piece of forest, maybe you've never been there, but it's always there. The forest of the Tian Shan is there, waiting to meet you.
Hiking the Wusun Ancient Road, I love the Tianshan Forest along this road. Unlike the "blooming flowers" of eastern China, the forests of the Tianshan Mountains are made up of almost the same kind of tree, the Xueling spruce. The snowy spruce is tall and tall, like a sword pointing to the sky. From the southern vein of the Tianshan Mountains to Hami, it stretches for more than 1,800 kilometers from east to west, forming a vast green sea!
It has been said that dialogue with forests is a human and biological ability. In addition to survival, forests are the soil that nurtures our aesthetic world. It allows people to eat and sleep warmly, enjoy the pleasures of wilderness and nature, and sing poetry and art about the forest...
Although there are no 8,000-meter barbaric peaks here, their unique mountain shape looms in the clouds and mist, like a fairyland.
Akbulakdasaka – The highest altitude that needs to be crossed is 3900m. Akbulakdasaka is a seasonal snowy peak where the snow melts every summer and autumn. The landscape of Dabana is completely different, no longer light green meadows, dark green woods, gray gravel slopes have become the main color here.
Akbulakdabana is located on the watershed of the main vein of the Tianshan Mountains, where the north and south slopes belong to the north and south of Xinjiang, and the climate and landforms are obviously different.
A mountain friend from the south recalled this ancient road:
I'm calling the south.
You are the mountains and snow of the north
We are so different, why are we so memorable?
I miss the herds of cattle and sheep on the road, and the lonely starry sky at night
I still have memories
Ride the wind and water on horseback
In that vast meadow
We sing, vigorously, grasp the youth.
The potholed gravel road, mixed with the snow on the top of the mountain, the road becomes more difficult, and falls during hiking are the norm, and if you ride a horse, you will fall if you are not careful.
Standing on the 3,900-meter Akbulak Dasaka in the wind, closing your eyes to feel the world, you will feel the power contained in your weak body.
Shimodasaka enters the Booz Creek River Valley, all the way down the river valley, frequently crossing the river about 30-40 times, in some places waist-deep and rubble, which requires special attention to safety.
The thousand-year-old Wusun Trail is full of charm and steepness
