When you walk a lot and drive far enough, you will find that the scenery and food sometimes have a unified feeling!
Because if you just pursue the beautiful scenery on the journey, then if you drive far, you will have an aesthetic fatigue and a tired day. If you want to keep fresh all the time on your trip, you must explore the unique charm of each city around you, such as experiencing the life of the local people, feeling the local, seasonal and then humanistic customs.
There is a sign on the expressway near Yining: There is a good place in China called Xinjiang, and there is a good place in Xinjiang called Yining. It can be seen that the beautiful scenery of Yining is enough for us to enjoy. Therefore, you need to calm down and visit Yining City.
In Yining City, there is a folk village called Kazanqi. Because of its blue and white decorative style, it is particularly popular on various social platforms, and it is also affectionately called "Little Morocco" and "Oriental santorini". If you want to feel the local cultural characteristics of Yining, this is the best choice.
At the gate of Kazanqi Folk Village, a group of pigeons will hover here all the year round, many of which are raised by surrounding residents. If you want to experience the scene of feeding pigeons comfortably in a square somewhere in Europe as in TV series, Nakazanqi is also an option. It is almost impossible to feed pigeons abroad this year, but you can also feel this romantic scene in Yining.
Although it has become a tourist attraction, it still retains a large number of aborigines and even several schools. The residential buildings along the street are all sky-blue doors and walls, which really feels like a small Morocco.
I caught a glimpse of the door of a small room open, and an apple-gnawing child ran out looking for his sister hiding behind the wall … I couldn't help but capture such a lovely scene. They live the happiest life in carefree times, and a lollipop is their source of happiness all day.
Especially different from other big cities in China, the people gathered in the square here are all men! At first, we were particularly embarrassed to shoot them with cameras, but as a tourist attraction, the residents here are used to tourists from all over the world. They won't be surprised that we shoot with a camera. Some of them will smile at the camera, which is especially simple and beautiful.
We also met a group of students who came out to rest in the square at noon. They were all very polite and talked appropriately. It seems that local moral education in Xinjiang is still in place, and schools are also teaching in multiple languages.
This is the most interesting thing in the trip. What kind of life do the locals live? What are their living habits? This is a topic you will never get tired of.
At lunch time, we found a snack bar near Kazanchi School and had a satisfying meal. Because according to many years' experience in go on road trip, the meals downstairs in general residential buildings and near schools are both cheap and delicious. Sure enough, the facts once again prove this tried-and-true experience.
The two of us ordered a portion of fried noodles, a portion of beef meatball soup, five portions of beef skewers and an nang. Beef skewers are not as delicious as Hanren Street in Yining. The meat is definitely fresh, but the pickled taste is almost interesting, but it can make do. Oiled noodles are the best, and most locals order pasta. 12 yuan. If it is not enough, you can add noodles for free, which is very delicious and affordable.
However, there are still some gaps between this village and my imagination. After all, this place has been touted by many travel treasures as a place to punch in, but when I really came here, I found that there is still a difference between the buyer show and the seller show. The most obvious point is that perhaps because of the epidemic, a large number of tourists have not come here for a long time, which has led to the closure of many shops along the street, and it is inevitable that it will be deserted here.
If you come to Kazanqi Folk Village in Yining, it is suggested that all shops along the street reopen after the epidemic recedes and the tourism industry slowly recovers. I believe the experience here will be much better.
If Kazanchi is a journey of experience, then Six Star Street is a journey of food. Compared with Kazanqi, which retains the original ecology and humanistic atmosphere, Liuxing Street is more like a petty bourgeoisie game. The environment of the whole street is very clean and comfortable, and there are coffee shops and dessert shops that must punch cards along the street.
The first famous gourmet restaurant was called Leba Bakery, which was a Russian bread. Northeasters affectionately call it Leba. Compared with other breads with various tastes, this Italian bar has a stronger flavor, is not easy to gain weight, helps digestion and wins a place. This music bar on Liuxing Street is more fragrant, and it has gradually become one of the shops that must punch in. The unit price is 20 yuan.
The second shop that must punch in is an ice cream shop called Gulandam. The decoration style is easy to come out, and it can take half a day to bring my little sister here. The whole decoration is fantastic, and the outdoor scene is the most beautiful. Taking pictures here, the circle of friends is absolutely no problem that night!
Of course, if there is no real product, this store can't be so hot. The most noteworthy thing in their family is 9.9 ice cream. And! All the ingredients on the ice cream are free! Add whatever you want, and add as much as you want. I deeply doubt whether the boss will do business at a loss.
In fact, there are many shops worth visiting on Liuxing Street. Unfortunately, they were all closed when we arrived. After the National Day, the number of tourists has been greatly reduced, not to mention that the epidemic has not completely ended and the tourism economy has not really recovered. But you can find a lot of fun on Six Star Street. For example, the shooting location of various colored walls, such as the local square dance with national characteristics.
Compared with Kazanchi, Six Star Street is actually more comfortable and free. You can find a petty bourgeoisie coffee shop, sit leisurely all afternoon, take a photo among the flowers, chat with the local people and see their sincere smiles.
On this day, we didn't go too far by BMW X3, but the exotic customs and happy smiles of residents of all ethnic groups in Yining may warm your driving mood more than the beautiful scenery you see after driving hundreds of kilometers.
