Comfortable version of Xinjiang snow viewing and playing guide…

2-week itinerary with travel + skiing, about 20,000 RMB per person. Outbound flight from Guangdong to Chengdu with a transfer to Yili. Return flight from Altay to Urumqi with a transfer back to Guangzhou. ✈️¥4111 Day: Guangzhou → Chengdu, stay at airport hotel 🏨¥483 Day: Chengdu → Yining, 4 hours from airport to hotel. This time I was forced to choose Xigu, but it turned out to be a pleasant surprise❗️The hotel facilities, privacy, and scenery inside the hotel are all very good. The snow is thick and clean, perfect for lying around everywhere. Day: Kuerdening, stay at Xigu Camp 🏨¥788 Horseback riding through the woods, feeling the sound of snow falling. Spent some time in the public area of Bairui, which made up for not staying there. Dinner at Xigu was lamb hotpot, quite tasty. Day: Kuerdening → Sailimu Lake, stay at Shuiyunshan Hotel 🏨¥1699 Departed at noon, 4-hour drive to Sailimu Lake, just in time for sunset! Entered the lake loop from the north gate, went halfway around, and exited from the east gate. Chased the blue-pink sunset and also met a little fox symbolizing luck. The night road to Shuiyunshan is very difficult to drive, but looking up you can see the Milky Way P8, and the starry sky is moving. Day: Sailimu Lake → Karamay, stay at Atour Hotel 🏨¥449 Entered the other half of the lake loop from the east gate of Sailimu Lake. Departed in the afternoon for Karamay. The itinerary for these two days was not very reasonable; if you had left earlier the day before, you could have completed the lake loop that day and left the next day for hotel leisure and photos. Shuiyunshan is quite beautiful, a bit of a pity. Day: Karamay → Ulungu Lake → Burqin, stay at Lavande Hotel 🏨¥209 The goose egg yolk reflected on the ice surface is actually orange-pink! Best to arrive at Ulungu Lake between 5:30 and 6:00 PM to enjoy the sunset and take photos without missing either. Day: Burqin → Baihaba → Kanas, stay at Kanas Nanxi Villa 🏨¥2380 The first viewing platform entering Baihaba is great for photos, but there are no more after that! This place is no longer the quiet little village; the whole street is filled with guesthouses and restaurants. On the way to Kanas, there is a lonely tree; people line up trying to find angles to be lonely together. Kanas village is very small; on New Year's Day, no cars are allowed to come and go, luggage is carried by hand into the guesthouse, and no performances are allowed at night. Dinner and drinks 🍺 are done at the guesthouse, celebrating the New Year. The most expensive night of the entire trip, and the least worthwhile! Day: Kanas → Hemu, stay at Suporis Hotel 🏨¥1960 The winter Shenxian Bay is not completely frozen; the distant snow mountains, nearby flowing water, and the clouds in front look like a fairy tale~ The scenery on the way to Hemu is great, but do not stop! Arriving at Hemu, the snow on the ground is pressed into a dirt yellow by cars. Like Baihaba, it’s all guesthouses and restaurants; the so-called scenic rooms are just about who has the bigger window… Day: The next 4 days are all in Jiekepulin 🏂🏻, stay at Holiday Inn 🏨¥11382 Lazy travelers must sleep until naturally waking up; P-style travel emphasizes spontaneity! A treasure travel destination worth visiting many times.
