Famous attractions in Turpan, Xinjiang, China: Tuyugou Grand Canyon, suitable for checking in and taking photos📸

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 Turpan in Xinjiang, China is a world-famous tourist resort city. Every day, thousands of tourists come here for sightseeing and vacation. There are many natural scenic spots in Turpan. This time I will introduce a very famous local attraction: Tuyugou Grand Canyon. Tuyugou Grand Canyon is a 3A scenic spot in China. It is located in Tuyugou Township, 47 kilometers east of Turpan. The majestic Grand Canyon is the most mysterious valley in Huoyan Mountain. It is 9 kilometers long. County Road 065 runs through it from north to south, and there are viewing platforms along the way. The Grand Canyon cuts the Huoyan Mountain vertically. The cliffs on both sides are rocky, the stream is winding, the canyon is crisscrossed with gullies, the rock formations are clearly marked, the peaks are colorful, and the Uyghur mountain village has a long history, which can be called a natural art gallery. The mountains on both sides of the Grand Canyon are called "natural fire walls" with the highest temperature reaching 60℃. Mazha Village in the Grand Canyon is the oldest existing Uyghur village in Xinjiang, with a strong Uyghur style. The ancient yellow clay residential buildings, colorful doors and windows, and mosques in the village are full of historical atmosphere. It is a holy place for worship, a station for explorers, and a paradise for painters and photographers.
