This is how Xinjiang should play-Northern Xinjiang (Raiders of Northern Xinjiang, this one is enough)

As mentioned before, Xinjiang can be roughly divided into southern Xinjiang and northern Xinjiang. Southern Xinjiang looks at humanities, while northern Xinjiang looks at scenery. It is not feasible to visit Xinjiang at one time, because it takes too long, which will lead to aesthetic fatigue and people will be too hard. Therefore, it is suggested that it is better to visit several times.

People who go to Xinjiang for the first time choose northern Xinjiang.

Turpan, Kanas and Ili in northern Xinjiang, when you turn around, there are really countless beautiful scenery, and you can also eat special food.

If you want to take the Northern Xinjiang Ring Road, you can take this route as a reference. The whole journey is about more than three thousand kilometers.

starting point: Urumqi

1. Cocoto Sea

2. Kanas Scenic Area

3. Karamay World ghost city

4. Sailimu Lake

5. Nalati Prairie

6. Duku Highway

7. Turpan

This is just a general route.

Starting from Urumqi, the provincial capital, you can first visit Tianchi Lake in Tianshan Mountain, which is about 1 kilometers away.

Tianshan Tianchi Scenic Area is a national 5A-level scenic spot. Tianshan Tianchi was called "Yaochi" in ancient times. Before his death, President Mao Zedong said with longing, "I want to go to Tianchi". "Yaochi is said to be the place where the Queen Mother bathes, and I will take a bath in it". Scholars of all ages have also left a famous masterpiece in Tianchi. "The mountain is not high, the fairy is famous, the water is not deep, and the dragon is spiritual."

After visiting Tianchi Lake in Tianshan Mountain, you can directly drive for about 7 hours to Fuyun County in Altay region to have a rest. Along the way, you can watch the unique Gobi desert landscape in Xinjiang, and if you are lucky, you can also see wild protected animals.

The next day, drive directly to Cocoto Sea Scenic Area.

Keketuohai Scenic Area is also a 5A-level scenic spot, which consists of four parts: Irtysh Grand Canyon, Keksuri, Lake Iremote and Karashenger earthquake fault zone. Not only can you enjoy the beautiful scenery, but you can also appreciate the characteristic folk culture. Now there are still primitive minority villages and villagers living in the scenic spot.

You can stay in Fuyun County that night after the tour.

on the third day, drive to Kanas scenic spot.

Kanas Scenic Area is a national 5A-level scenic spot, which is located in the border zone between China and Kazakhstan, Russia and Mongolia. There are 55 scenic spots in Kanas Scenic Area. The famous Kanas Lake Monster is talking about this Kanas Lake.

After visiting Kanas, you can drive directly to Hemu to stay in a cabin.

Hemu Village is known as "the first village in the world". It is the concentrated living place of Tuwa people and the farthest and largest of the three remaining Tuwa villages (Hemu Village, Kanas Village and Baihaba Village). The houses in Hemu Village are all made of logs and full of primitive flavor. Hemu Village is most famous for its intoxicating autumn colors, in which the smoke rises in Ran Ran, forming a dreamy smoke belt, which is better than a fairyland. Watching the sunrise in Hemu is also unique.

On the fourth day, after watching the sunrise in Hemu and taking photos, you can drive to Rainbow Beach.

Rainbow Beach, which is adjacent to the Erqis River with rippling blue waves, is in harmony with the lush and green valley scenery on the other side, which can be described as "a river separated by two banks has its own two days". The colors of the rocks here are changeable, and under the sunshine at sunset, the colors of the rocks are mainly red, with green, purple, yellow, white, black and transitional colors, which are colorful.

you can stay in burqin county at night.

On the morning of the fifth day, I drove to the ghost city of Karamay.

ghost city, also known as the windy city of Wuerhe, can be viewed from a distance, but not for fun. From a distance, you will admire its spectacular, majestic and marvelous nature. If you go deep into the windy city, you will feel its extraordinary terror.

After the tour, drive to Bole for accommodation.

On the sixth morning, you can drive directly to the last tear of the Atlantic Ocean-Sailimu Lake.

Next, the tour in Yili area is relatively free, and you can choose different places according to the season. You can go to the Nalati grassland in spring, summer and autumn.

Bayinbrick grassland with nine bends and eighteen bends.

a typical alpine meadow natural prairie-kalajun grassland.

Turks county, which is famous for its gossip layout. In 1996, the relevant departments canceled the traffic lights on the road, and Bagua City became a city without traffic lights.

When you go to Ili in April and May, you can enjoy apricot flowers in the apricot blossom ditch in Tulgen.

You can go to Nalati Hanging Garden from April to June.

If you go to Xinjiang from June to the end of September, you must take a section of Duku Highway, which was selected by chinese national geography as "Landscape Avenue running through the Tianshan Ridge", and is also known as the most beautiful highway in Xinjiang.

Duku Highway has a special terrain, with many sharp bends and steep slopes. More than 28 kilometers of roads are above 2, meters above sea level. Due to natural factors such as snowfall and icing in winter in Tianshan Mountain area, it is only open for five months a year, and traffic control will be implemented for seven months from the end of September every year to May the following year.

After the visit to Yili, Turpan was the last place to visit in northern Xinjiang.

When you arrive in Turpan, the must-see spot is Flame Mountain.

Flame Mountain is the hottest place in China. The highest temperature in summer is as high as 47.8, and the highest temperature on the ground is as high as 89. Cooked eggs can be baked in the sand nest.

You can also visit Jiaohe Old Town and lament the historical changes.

Jiaohe Old Town was founded and built by the Cheshi people from the 2nd century BC to the 5th century BC, and reached its peak in the Southern and Northern Dynasties and the Tang Dynasty. Due to its strategic position, Jiaohe City gradually declined in the 9th and 14th centuries. At the end of Yuan Dynasty, during the Chahetai period, the Turpan area was at war for years. Jiaohe City was badly damaged and finally abandoned.

You can also visit the ancient water conservancy project, Karez.

Karez is an underground water conservancy project created in the long historical development of working people in arid areas. Karez leads to groundwater and turns the desert into an oasis, which was called "well canal" in ancient times.

If you go to Turpan in the spring and autumn, you might as well go to Shanshan on the side to see the Kumutage Desert, the desert closest to the city.

After visiting Turpan, you can return to Urumqi. On the way, I will pass by the Dabancheng Scenic Area, which is famous for "The Girl in Dabancheng". I can stop by and have a look, but I personally think it is not very ornamental.

When you return to Urumqi, you can eat some Xinjiang specialties. Mutton kebabs, baked buns, fried rice noodles, hand-grabbed rice, saute spicy chicken, pepper chicken and so on.

You can also visit the Grand Bazaar.

You can also go to the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region Museum to see the famous female corpse of Loulan.

this is a general route plan for changing routes in northern Xinjiang. You can refer to it. The scenic spots listed in it are also representative, but not all.

during the tour, I suggest you try the cold water fish in Kanas. When you go to Yili, you can try authentic hand-grabbed mutton and roasted whole sheep.

In addition, people may be more concerned about the security problem in Xinjiang. Before I went to Xinjiang, I was also worried about whether it would be chaotic. After I went there, I found that it was just the imagination of people who had never been there. Xinjiang, especially northern Xinjiang, is really safe. One is that while retaining the characteristics of ethnic minorities, the Chinese culture is also well integrated. Another is that the government's security measures are really meticulous. Hotels that receive tourists must undergo security check when entering, and they must register with their real names. Public places, such as supermarkets, should also be checked if they enter. In the Grand Bazaar, or in food streets and markets, there will be constant police patrols.

If there is a safety problem to worry about, it is that the distance between scenic spots is really long, and many road sections have speed limits and the driving time is long, so we must pay attention to traffic safety. Then there are some Gobi desert sections, which will have bad signal or no signal. If you are traveling freely, you must plan your route in advance. If you are traveling with a group, try to choose a bus with 2+1 air seats. This kind of car is spacious and it won't be too hard to stay in the car for a long time.

I believe that the epidemic will soon pass, and the great rivers and mountains are still waiting for us to watch [laughs].
