The scenery is super beautiful, the lake water is clear and cool. It's just that there is too much traffic if you drive by yourself. It's about 90 kilometers around the lake, and it takes a day to walk and stop. It's nice to camp in the scenic area after that. I experienced horseback riding, which is a little expensive but fun. I will definitely come again. I love Xinjiang! ❤❤❤
We entered the scenic area at around 7pm. It was quite smooth all the way in without traffic jams. We parked the car at Santai Grassland at night and took pictures of the sunset, which was very beautiful. We got up at around 6am the next morning and walked to a place almost close to Dianjiangtai to take pictures of the sunrise in Hubei. The temperature was low in the morning and evening, so we wore cotton clothes. After that, we kept walking forward, stopping and walking, playing all the way. The lake water was very clear and blue, and the mobile phone could not capture it. It felt really good and relaxing. We had a lot of fun, especially the children. It is highly recommended. We felt it was worth coming here from more than 3,000 kilometers away. It was not in vain to come to Sailimu Lake😂😂😂

The management of Nalati Scenic Area is very good, and the shuttle bus is dispatched in time. It is a relatively sound scenic area management, which is very friendly to tourists like me who do not drive themselves. In addition, self-driving will not delay the shuttle bus trip. In short, the management is great. The scenery and beautiful Nalati Scenic Area are well-deserved.
Grass skiing in the sky is quite exciting, but it was too hot these two days and there were too many people. It is recommended to go to Panlong Valley Road after watching it, take pictures on the big lawn, go up the mountain to the woods and grassland, mainly because there are few people

Kalajun Grassland is a feast for the eyes and a home for the soul. With snow-capped mountains as the background, the sea of grass is like silk, and the swaying shadows of flowers make you feel like you are in a fairyland. Every frame is the ultimate beauty given by nature. Not only does it have world-class ecological certification, but it also has breathtaking primitive scenery. It is a natural miracle that cannot be missed.
Master Ma has excellent driving skills and is familiar with all sections of the road in Yili. He took us to Kurdening, Sailimu Lake, Kalajun, Zhaosu, and Xiata, where we saw many beautiful scenery. When we encountered beautiful scenery, he stopped to take pictures, waited patiently, and helped take pictures. We did not shop throughout the trip, so it was a very good experience!

The Kurdening Scenic Area is like a dreamland deep in the Tianshan Mountains, with stunning natural scenery, rich ecology, great travel experience, and complete supporting facilities that will make you intoxicated and linger.
When the weather is good, the grassland is really beautiful. The scenery in Xinjiang depends on the weather. When the weather is good, the sun shines down, and you can take a great picture with just a snap. When the weather is cloudy, it is foggy and the photos are not good. When I went to Xiata, it was cloudy and rainy, so I didn’t see the snow-capped mountains, and I didn’t take many satisfactory photos. The weather was very good when I came to Kurdenin. It was very comfortable to drive the whole way. I also experienced riding a horse to the observation deck. After riding, I felt that the horse riding was worth the price. The road was too difficult to walk, and the horse and the brother who led the horse were very hard.

It is worth going, the scenery is beautiful, and it is a good place to take photos of dry land onions. You can experience horseback riding in Qiaxi. The Qiaxi painting is beautiful, but the road has not yet been hardened, and the dust raised by the wheels is a bit large. The Yanzi Bridge parking lot and campsite are relatively mature. If you like more natural, come quickly.
Qiaxi, a forest grassland hidden in a painting. Matcha green belongs to the Qiaxi painting. Qiaxi is the earliest green grassland in Xinjiang. As its name suggests, the vast grassland forest and snow-capped mountains can be seen when you look up. It is as beautiful as a painting! The moment you set foot on the Qiaxi grassland, freedom becomes concrete.
"After going through mountains and rivers, Qiaxi is worth it"!

It should be a new scenic spot. Many places are under construction. You can drive into the scenic spot by yourself. The most beautiful part is the first point with a high platform. It looks very beautiful. There is a forest behind it. After driving for about 40 kilometers, I didn’t dare to drive further in because there was no signboard saying how far it was.
I came across this place when I passed Xiata from Kalajun. It was quite amazing when I went in. However, there were still many places under construction and few people. I wonder if it will still be this quiet after it is completed. I also saw many marmots on the road.

It's over. I don't know where to go after playing here. This is the most beautiful place in the world! The key is that there is no entrance fee!
The snow-capped mountains, green grasslands, and gurgling streams are so beautiful. It's so beautiful.
If you are lucky, you can also see birds, flowers, cattle and sheep
From Dushanzi to Tangbula, we crossed the Tianshan Mountains and took the most beautiful road - Duku Highway, stopping and taking photos. The whole journey is 100 kilometers and takes about 4 hours. Compared with Nalati, Tangbula Grassland has fewer artificial traces and richer landforms. It is like a painting, with cattle and sheep eating grass by the stream and snow-capped mountains in the distance, which is very suitable for aerial photography!

It is highly recommended to stop and enjoy the scenery when you go from Urumqi to Dushanzi via S101. I didn't expect to see snow-capped mountains in July, what a surprise!
During the hot summer season in the city, you can bring your family here to escape the heat. The environment is beautiful and comfortable, and you get to sleep under a quilt at night. Don’t you want to experience this feeling?

This water park must be praised! The facilities are novel and unique, and the Hurricane Bay slide is so fun! The water is clear and clean, and the queues for each project are very fast. There are free hot showers in the park, which is very considerate. The staff is very friendly and will answer any questions. The experience is perfect!
This water park is worth visiting! The facilities are super exciting, and the sky-high carousel slide is so cool! The water is crystal clear, and each project is guarded by a safety guard. There are many dining options in the park, and the prices are reasonable. There are plenty of seats in the rest area, and there are charging facilities. The staff is thoughtful and the experience is perfect!
