Xinjiang | Shell fragments from ancient sea sites

In a village in Wuqia County, Kashgar Prefecture, Xinjiang, there is an ancient sea site - Shell Mountain made of accumulated shell fossils ⛰️ Once a vast ocean, now a mountain 1️⃣Transportation: Drive yourself or charter a car. There are no route buses. If you don’t know the road, you can use the navigation. The road conditions here are not complicated. 2️⃣Taking photos: If possible, it is recommended to bring a drone. If you climb up the mountain, you can circle around at a high place to see the entire mountain and the surrounding scenery. It is very photogenic📷 3️⃣Accommodation: The location is not far from the village. If you walk back at the end, there is a restaurant in the village. The price is okay. The five of us ate for less than 200 yuan💰The price is relatively not very high. If you want to stay, it is recommended to go to Wuqia County for better accommodation conditions. The price is not very high at all. If there are many people, you can stay in a multi-person room with up to four beds and four beds. The facilities in the room are fully equipped. 🔴It is recommended to bring a power bank because the scenery along the way is beautiful! 🔴It is recommended to go in the afternoon when the sun has not set and it is not very hot. Looking back, the benefits of climbing up the mountain are that the scenery is beautiful and film-making📷 🔴There is a small river under Shell Mountain. The water is very clear. You can search for many beautiful stones in it. 🔴There is a Populus euphratica forest next to the scenic spot. It is recommended that everyone go and have a look. Anyway, "everyone comes here"
