Xiye Micheng Scenic Area

inKunlun MountainsBeneath your feet lies a magical place—Xiye Micheng Scenic Area, where millennia-old ruins, weathered city gates, desiccated ancient corpses, and swaying withered branches leave us with endless mysteries. Embark on a journey to chase dreams, igniting the beacon of time travel to return to that resounding era and rediscover scenes lost for centuries. Though we cannot reclaim the faded years, the storm-eroded remnants still faintly reveal the ancient city's former glory. Xiye Micheng Scenic Area is located 1 km northwest of Luoke Township government in Yecheng County. As a regional-level cultural relic protection unit, it covers an area of 1 km east-west and 1.5–2 km north-south. The ancient city walls have collapsed, with pottery shards, porcelain fragments, ash layers, burnt earth, and human bones scattered throughout the site. The loess platforms within may represent either walls or burial clusters. In recent years, local farmers have unearthed numerous pottery jars, coins, bronze artifacts, and ornaments while cultivating nearby land. The county's cultural and sports bureau currently preserves an exquisitely crafted bronze zun vessel, approximately 18 cm tall, excavated from this site.Yecheng · 11.7km from downtown

Xin Jiang Jin Hu Yang is located west of Zepu County in Kashgar, Xinjiang, nestled along the Yarkant River. This stunning desert oasis features thousands of acres of natural poplar forests and beautifully landscaped lakeside gardens. With its picturesque scenery, it ranks among Kashgar's top attractions—perfect for admiring poplar trees and enjoying the serene garden views. The scenic area is quite large, divided mainly into two sections: the area near the main entrance and the poplar forest area, connected by shuttle buses. Exploring the entire attraction typically takes around 3–4 hours. Upon entering, visitors will first encounter the Golden Lock Bridge, a large suspension bridge over the lake that sways amusingly as you walk across. Beyond the bridge, you'll find stunning lakeside scenery, including a vast lotus pond that blooms beautifully in summer—a rare and precious sight in the arid Kashgar region. In addition to the lotus pond, the area features a fishing garden and an ecological swimming pool, offering plenty of recreational activities. Take the shuttle bus to reach the poplar forest area deep in the attraction. This vast forest spans over 10,000 acres, showcasing poplar trees in various forms at different growth stages. Fall is the ideal time to visit when the leaves turn golden yellow. A unique feature here is that the poplars grow along the water's edge, allowing you to capture stunning photos of their reflections on the calm surface. The attraction also features jujube forests and farmhouse dining areas for additional exploration and meals. A hotel has recently been built within the park.——Jinhu Yangderui Resort Hotel is a great choice for those planning to enjoy a 2-day or longer vacation within the park.Zepu · 42.2km from Yecheng

It is an artificially built imitation of an ancient scenic spot, but it is still very photogenic. It is suitable for passing by to check in and take photos. You can ride on horses to enter and exit the scenic area, which is very interesting. Although it is an artificial scenic spot, the photos can still give people a feeling of traveling through time and space.

You can enjoy the grand view of the thousand-year-old willows, sigh at the infinity of life, listen to the sound of water flowing between the cliffs, explore the mystery of the water source, and feel the vigorous vitality of the gurgling clear stream winding into the depths of the dense willows! Feel the comfortable and peaceful feeling of the cool water vapor blowing on your face, and listen to the symphony of life that relies on each other between the deep willow forest and the cliff water source! If you come to play at this time, you can also smell the fragrance of the Elaeagnus angustifolia flowers!

The overall environment of the scenic area is so-so, and it operates under a commercial model... Since the scenic area is quite large, older people are advised to take the sightseeing bus. Younger people with enough time can rent bicycles, but only a small portion of the space is worth seeing!
