3. Recommended key scenic spots:

Tianshan Tianchi

Tianshan Tianchi is the dividing point between myth and reality, which is hidden in the mountains of Bogda Peak? Among them, it was called "Yaochi" in ancient times, that is, it is said that the Chinese and Western Queen Mothers hosted a banquet for Zhou Muwang. The lake is clear, surrounded by mountains, green grass and wild flowers? Like brocade.

Route arrangement: Depart from Urumqi at 9: a.m. and arrive at Tianchi Scenic Area at about 1: 3. Free activities from 1: 3 to 14: 3. After that, I went out of the scenic spot and returned to Urumqi after lunch.

Tickets: Tickets for 95 yuan+Tickets for 6 yuan

Business hours: peak season: April 1-October 31, 8:3-2:; off season: November 1-March 31, 9:3-19:

Travel guide:

Tourist distribution center (departure)-

①? Combination Option 1: Haibei Wharf (above Lingbo Tianchi by boat)-Tour around the lake and arrive at Xiwangmu Temple (offering incense and praying)-Return by boat.

②? Combination Option 2: Take the shuttle bus in Maya Mountain Area-transfer to the cable car (overlooking the mountain Bogda and the panoramic view of Tianchi)-Yashan Scenic Area (viewing the mountain stone forest).

Special recommendation: Trail around the lake: Walking along the trail around the lake is also very pleasant while walking and watching. Mayashan Cableway: Although it's a little expensive, it's really worth a ride, with a high altitude and a panoramic view of the magnificent mountains around Tianchi. Cruise around the lake: It's different from walking, but sometimes it's crowded and can't take a good photo position. Haixi: Visit the beach and lake in person and take photos of the holy land. Many people take wedding photos here ~ In fact, many people think that the wooden plank road to Haixi is even more surprising.

Ertuyugou

The minaret of the mosque stands tall, and wisps of smoke from kitchen chimneys soar into the air and scatter. Isn't this the Peach Blossom Garden in the Western Region? Mazha village, which is hidden in Tuyugou, still preserves a large number of traditional Uygur architectural styles, and uses local materials to make buildings with clay raw soil. Every household in the village is connected by lanes with different widths.

Wear information:

It won't be as hot as it is in midsummer in October, and the temperature is about 256 degrees during the day, so just pay attention to sun protection. Just put a sweater or windbreaker over your shirt at sunset.

Tickets: 3 yuan/person (free of charge for swiping ID card recently)

Three Turpan

As the saying goes, "Grapes in Turpan, melons in Hami, a flower in the lamb of Kuqa". When I arrived in Turpan, I really entered a big stove, which is also the only way to learn from the West. In mid-July, Turpan doesn't want to stay outside for one more minute during the day. It's too hot, so it's recommended to hang out again at sunset.

time: it is strongly recommended to avoid summer, because it is really too hot! Suitable for coming back in spring and autumn ~

Accommodation: you can live in Urumqi or Turpan city

Transportation: Depart from Urumqi, take the train to Turpan North Station, you can find a good car hire master online in advance, or find a regular taxi to talk about the car hire cost after you get off, and tell the driver where you want to go.

2. All kinds of sun protection clothes, sun protection caps, sun protection caps and sunglasses must be prepared. Put them on immediately after taking photos, and don't be exposed to the sun for too long.

Fourth, delicious food

I really burst into tears when I left Xinjiang. I love fried rice noodles! I love fried rice noodles! In Urumqi, I always ate two fried rice noodles. Let's just say, I think they are super delicious. I am a foodie and never picky!

1. Mizhen-flavored rice noodles

The sauce is rich, so you can choose double or triple. I still think it's delicious without fish steak (the widened powder is still delicious), and the spicy degree is ok, because I can eat spicy food, so I don't think it's very spicy.

2. Azhen rice noodles

Azhen rice noodles have a unique flavor of medicinal materials, but also have a lot of sauces? , delicious! Spicy degree is also normal spicy degree.

3, sheep baa baa Naokang meat

It's the first time to eat Naokang meat, and the large pieces of meat are very real and super fragrant. His barbecue is very fragrant and delicious. In addition, the soda in his house is the taste of ice crystals that you drank when you were young (I don't know if you drank it when you were young, a pack of ten cents can be frozen into ice cubes), which is especially missed.

4. Kuoximakra Baked Steamed Bun Gaochang District-No.26, Laocheng East Road, Turpan City

This restaurant is very famous. It is freshly baked in the city of Turpan, and it is very, very fragrant. Cry, the food in Xinjiang is all to my taste.

5. Ha Like special pilaf (Kumutage Desert) Shanshan County-Puchang Road (about 5 meters northeast of Tianma Community)

If you go to Kumutage Desert, you must eat this pilaf! The materials are really delicious. Although frontispiece and the interior are unremarkable, they are well worth it.

IV. About the mode of travel:

There are many roads in Xinjiang, and there are speed limits everywhere, so it's best to hire a car/carpool.

it is recommended to hire a car for more than one or three people. Basically, hotels, cars, drivers and scenic spots are all included, which is very worry-free and labor-saving. However, before you charter a car, you must ask for clear communication and choose a reliable chartered master.

carpooling is recommended for people under 2 or 3, which is more affordable, and it is also a good experience to meet new companions on the way.
