It is the farthest piece of land in the world from the ocean, but occupies one-sixth of the continent.
It is 2,500 kilometers away from the ocean, adjacent to 8 countries, covers an area of more than 13 provinces combined, and has the largest desert in China.
It is Xinjiang.
Inner Mongolia has grasslands, Ningxia has deserts, Tibet has snowy mountains, Qinghai has lakes, Northeast China has forests... Xinjiang, on the other hand, has it all.
It is no exaggeration to say that Xinjiang alone accounts for half of China's beauty. And the beauty of Xinjiang, northern Xinjiang accounts for nine points.
The twelve hours of northern Xinjiang have their own wonders.
Child time
(1pm~1pm)
Urumqi is brightly lit
It is impossible to say that Xinjiang does not know how vast China is, and this sentence is not false at all. Xinjiang is vastness beyond your imagination.
Many cities have entered dormant mode at 23~1 o'clock, but Xinjiang's nightlife has just begun to enter a climax. The street is lit up with red wine, the aroma of barbecue, beer and refreshing wind. Simply wonderful.
When ugly
(1 o'clock ~ 3 o'clock)
Bayinbrook's starlight
Bayinbrook grassland is the most romantic grassland in Xinjiang.
At night, when everything is silent, you will see the stars in the sky when you come out of the tent, the vast grassland without shelter as if you are in the universe, and the heaven and earth merge in the bright night.
Yin Shi
(3 o'clock ~ 5 o'clock)
The first rays of sunlight in the Cocoto Sea
Cocoto Sea means blue river bay, and although it is the second coldest pole in the country, it is surrounded by warm orange every day when the first rays of sunlight slowly rise from the lake.
The colors range from dark to light, from intense to light, and the Irtysh River flows through the town, and the perfect blend of blue and orange is fascinating.
Dead time
(5 a.m. ~ 7 p.m.)
Hemu Village is full of smoke
The houses here are all made of logs. Cooking smoke rises in the autumn colors, creating a dreamy band of smoke that resembles a fairyland.
On the hillside around Hemu Village, you can overlook Hemu Village and the Hemu River. The ghosts of the empty valley, the small bridges, the flowing water wranglers, and the dust passing through the forest.
Hour of time
(7 a.m. ~ 9 a.m.)
The colors of the colorful beach are a bit charming
The colors of the rocks here are varied, and under the sunlight at sunrise, the colors of the rocks are mainly red, and the colors of green, purple, yellow, white, black and transitions are colorful.
Shishi
(9 a.m. ~ 11 a.m.)
Kanas is waving at you
In autumn, Kanas is full of forests, and the surface of the sapphire blue lake reflects the colorful world around it.
Moon Bay is like a blue ribbon that connects all the colors here. Take a panoramic view of Kanas Lake in the fish viewing pavilion, where the forests and canyons on both sides of the lake meet, and the trees meet yellow and green, extending to the sky...
Noon
(11 a.m. ~ 1 p.m.)
Wandering on the Duku Gong Treasury
At noon, when the sun is hottest, you should speed on the Duku Highway and look out the window because the sun has become particularly bright.
The warm wind blows your hair, along the way Gobi oases, alpine tunnels, modern glaciers, beautiful forests... Put on your favorite music, and at that moment you will suddenly feel -
Isn't life a journey of desperation!
Not timely
(1pm~3pm)
Stars fall on Lake Serimu
It is the last tear of the Atlantic, and it has an unforgettable blue.
In the afternoon, when the sun is no longer so blazing, slowly sprinkling on the lake, the blue lake is like sprinkled with bright stars, sparkling eyes are the best recorder, here everything is moving with the wind, but as if static.
Shen Shi
(5pm~5pm)
Go to Narathi to see the aerial steppe
At this time, Narati seemed to be a light and shadow magician. The mellow mountain grassland is half-light and half-dark, and the soft light stretches the shadows of the cows, sheep and horses in the yurthouse long.
Snow-capped mountains rise, forests are verdant, canyons are open, and white yurthouses dotted among the grasslands are scattered like a bright oil painting.
Unitary time
(5pm~7pm)
The Kumtag Desert is golden
It is one of the few deserts in the world that has close contact with cities.
The afternoon sun hits the Kumtag desert, and every grain of sand glows golden. I saw sand yellow sky blue, clouds light and breeze...
Apocalypse
(7pm~8pm)
Evening in Devil's City
Wuerhe Windy City is viewable from afar and not profane.
Surrounded by many strange-shaped mounds, as tall as four stories high, the side walls of the mound stand steep loess, there is no grass on it, and there is a dead silence around, but it is this "horror" that makes this place the first choice for tourism in the hearts of many people.
Oh time
(21~11pm)
Fireworks of life
Many people feel that Xinjiang is far away and Xinjiang is not safe. But when you actually get here, you'll find that it's a place full of human touches, with a warm smile on everyone's face.
Gulp of alcohol, eat meat, the night is not yet deep, walking on the street, stargazing at the moon and blowing the wind, feel the most real appearance of this land.
This is the northern Xinjiang, which has both magnificent and vast beauty, small and exquisite beauty, and unique beauty.
And why do we say that you must go to the sub-northern Xinjiang in the summer, don't worry, this tells you ...
NO.1
Summer in the north
There is the color you imagined
Every time I talk about the scenery of this land, people can't help but marvel at the beauty of the mountains and rivers of the motherland.
Xinjiang has a vast geography and charming scenery, which is a distant place that we have always missed in our hearts.
Desert Gobi, mountain steppe
River canyons, jungle flowers
Herdsmen's yurts, steppe people's homes
Travel through this colorful and magical land with landscapes of beauty you can't imagine.
The pure blue paradise holy lake, the Tianshan meadows full of wildflowers, the remote and continuous snow-capped mountains, the beautiful and quiet village wooden houses, the green grasslands where horses gallop...
Everything is so natural, so transparent, so fascinating.
In the northern part of summer, enter the green mode full of screens. The year-round cold weather of 24°C allows you to get rid of the summer all summer.
The changing scenery along the way makes your heart even more exciting. Just like colorful and fruity ice cream in summer, it is delicious and beautiful and relieves the heat.
Every year in May/June, the grassland wild saffron flowers at the foot of the Tianshan Mountain are in full bloom, like a fire, bright red flowers are overwhelming the sky, spreading wantonly into the distance like red clouds, forming a sea of flowers with extraordinary colors.
NO.2
Summer in the north
It's out of a fairy tale
Known as the "God's Own Land", the most beautiful village in China, Hemu Village, is scattered with wooden houses full of fairy tale feeling.
Surrounded by lush birch forests, surrounded by rustic wooden houses in the early morning, there is a faint smoke of cooking. In the soft light of the morning sun, the idyllic comfort is unobstructed.
No urging, no sense of urgency. Small squirrels jump among the trees and forage for food. Cows and sheep strolling among the log huts.
The flowers that open freely, the sparse fences, the lush trees, and the grass and trees all exude the smell of this fairy tale.
In the quiet rows of cabins, we saw shepherds driving their sheep, the sound of horses' hooves and the shouts of shepherds, sounding in the mountains and forests.
Between heaven and earth, only a simple life remains, like a pastoral song in our hearts.
Kanas, the back garden of the gods. After early summer, a touch of emerald lan descends on the earth. So naïve, so deep.
The lonely and proud green is the protective color made in the summer of Kanas, pure and quiet, and cool. Kanas woke up, bursting with long-accumulated vitality.
Take a hike that would be appropriate. In the dense river valley of the mountains and forests, watch the light mist of clouds;
On the cloudy hills, listen to the quiet flow of the river; In the valley full of mountain flowers, look for the distance.
NO.3
Summer in the north
It is a sight you can't miss
In early summer, the snow in the Tianshan Mountains begins to melt, flowing with stunning pictures. After June, the northern Xinjiang can be described as a variety of styles, not as beautiful as the world!
Some people say that if you miss the northern Xinjiang at this time, then you may miss the beauty of the whole of China! Only when I came to Northern Xinjiang did I know that the person who said this was not an exaggeration.
To some extent, the northern Xinjiang in summer is more brilliant than the peak autumn, and the green grassland is happy, and the upward vitality is also the main theme of Xinjiang at this time.
The Ili Valley in summer is like Van Gogh's oil painting.
Vast land, spreading perilla in the sun, rape flowers, lavender, poppies... It's just colorful!
the poetic Cocoto Sea; Duku Highway, which is only open for a few months a year; There is also the Turpan grape ditch with fragrant melons and fruits; Blue and charming Serimu Lake; the Karajun grassland with green grass and a sea of wildflowers; Lavender fragrant Huocheng...
