4/5
2 of us went to the Passenger Transportation Center near downtown Turpan thinking they have a public bus to Flaming Mountains (Hua Yan Shan) but they don't. They have 4 seated cars. We paid 20 Yuan per person. On the way the driver took 2 more passengers. After scanning our bags, they took our passports to register. They asked how we arrived and we showed them the car driver's name card. Off we walked to the ticket office. 40 Yuan each. We walked through an exhibition hall with pictures and statues about the place. We walked outside and took a donkey cart for 60 Yuan per person. They brought us to the stone having the Huayan Shan wording and 3 flags to take photos. We wanted to climb up the mountain for better view but they said it is not allowed. I guess buying one way donkey cart were better as we could walk far away from the signage stone for more photos. We felt we should not let them wait too long so we came back after about 15 minutes. Saw the frames holding eggs for sale in the day time heat but we didn't buy. There's a huge indicator in a round shape oven showing 44.5 C degrees. It was hot outdoor as we was there around 1 to 2 pm but if there's a shadow, I feel cool.We saw a large signage board about Bezeklik Thousand Buddha Caves on the main street near Exit gate so we walked there waiting for a taxi. The security staff saw us and offered to call us a taxi for 25 Yuan each. Off we went. After the visit, a car back to our hotel in downtown Turpan cost us 100 Yuan (2 of us).

    Not big, it was turned in an hour, most of them were taking pictures and punching in. Riding a camel around 40 or 60? Forgot, anyway, many people feel expensive, gliders circle 580 to one or two thousand, according to the distance. The export snacks are clearly priced here. This is good. It is very convenient to buy tickets on Trip.com. There is no need to queue up and enter the venue in minutes. very good

    When I went there was August, I was lucky at 9 o'clock in the morning and only 38 degrees. It was 40 degrees after the scenic spot. It was really hot here and it was worth a trip. The scenic spot was not big but you can feel it! The whole family came to punch the card together, it was worth it!

    Flame Mountain, a mysterious place name located in Turpan, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China, is named for its hot summer and red mountain, and is the inspiration for the creation of Flame Mountain in Journey to the West. The mountain of Flame Mountain presents a unique red color, as if burned by fire. The summer here is unusually hot, and the temperature often reaches more than 40 degrees Celsius, making people feel the heat wave. But it is this extreme natural condition that makes the scenery of Flame Mountain unique. In the Flame Mountain Scenic Area, visitors can visit various attractions related to the "Journey to the West", such as Tang Seng's sculptures, Sun Wukong's Monkey King Cave, etc. These attractions are full of fantasy colors, making people feel like they are in a mythical world. In addition, there are many local specialties and handicrafts for tourists to taste and buy. In addition to the attractions related to the "Journey to the West", there are many other natural landscapes in the Fire Mountain. There are spectacular canyons, strange landscapes and beautiful lakes all worth exploring. Hiking or cycling here can feel the magic and beauty of nature

    The legendary flame mountain, fortunately, winter, not so hot, but just wear a shirt is enough, or a little higher than other places. It is a bare, oversized mountain, and nothing else can be seen. It feels like a loess high slope. Then get some camels for you to ride, some statues of Sun Wukong, statues of the Bull Demon King, and statues of the Iron Fan Princess. I feel that 40 tickets for this attraction are not very worth it. It is the same to stand on the outer road and see it. There is no need to enter the attraction.
