Qiongkushitai|Step into Xinjiang's Fairytale Forest, Left Speechless by Its Beauty

Finally made it to my dream destination, Qiongkushitai!! This place is like God's spilled palette🎨 Snow-capped mountains, grasslands, log cabins, streams... every frame looks like a movie scene🍃 ✨Must-visit spots: 1️⃣ Horseback riding in the back mountains Ride through primeval forests to reach the mountaintop in just 1 hour⛰️ Overlook the entire village with clouds seemingly within reach☁️ (Best visited after 5pm for the softest light) 2️⃣ Hiking the Wusun Ancient Trail Follow the stream into hidden wonders, moss-covered forests straight out of a fairytale🌲 Stumble upon herders' log cabins, like stepping into Heidi and Grandpa's movie world🪵 3️⃣ Stargazing cabins Stay in Kazakh-style log cabins where the Milky Way greets you at night🌌 Wake up to livestock "morning calls" - pure therapy~ 📌Tips: ▪️Rugged mountain roads - SUVs/chartered cars recommended ▪️Huge temperature swings! Layering thin down jackets with dresses is perfection ▪️Limited village homestays - book 2 weeks ahead! 💬Random thoughts: Time slows to 0.5x speed in Qiongkushitai Sitting on the grassland watching eagles soar suddenly makes you understand true freedom🦅 Qiongkushitai Village, Tekes County, Xinjiang 🎫 Free (guides required for hiking trails)
