    "Hongshan Park is a must-see place for foreign visitors to Urumqi. Opposite Hongshan Park is the Demon Mountain. There is a Big Buddha Temple on the mountain and a Red Mountain Pagoda. The park is shaded by trees. There are various entertainment equipment for children to play."
    Urumqi.Hong Shan
    2.1km from downtown
    Highlights: The main body of the park, Hongshan, is composed of purple glutenite, and the mountain is ochre red, which is very unique. In the park, you can walk in the forest, go boating on the lake, visit cultural buildings such as statues of Buddhist temples, experience various amusement projects, and climb the top of the mountain to overlook the panoramic view of the city. It is also a must-see attraction for foreign tourists visiting Uzbekistan. The park is small in size, about five or six hundred meters in length and width, and you can walk around after entering. There is a red mountain in the park, with an altitude of about 900 meters, but the drop from the mountain is only about 100 or tens of meters. There are many trees between the mountain roads and the environment is very good. It takes about half an hour to climb the mountain here. If you are not physically strong, you can take a sightseeing bus from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain. The park mainly has several entrances on the east side. The entrances are a little difficult to find. After seeing the park from other areas such as Youhao Parkson, you need to go around the park from the east side, and then enter westward from the North Lane 1 of Hongshan Road and Xinmin West Street. There are mainly several areas such as Hongshan Pagoda, Dafo Temple and Yuanqiao Building when playing. Hongshan Tower is located on the top of Hongshan Mountain on the west side. It is a nine-story germanium red tower, which is the same color as the red mountain below, very special. At the Hongshan Tower, you can take a panoramic view of the urban area below, and the field of vision is very wide. The overlooking building is located in the park and also on the top of the mountain. It is also possible to take panoramic views of the city here, but it is not too different from the Hongshan Tower. It is not recommended to buy a ticket to go there. Located on the north side of the park, the Big Buddha Temple is an antique temple where tourists can worship Buddha and pray for blessings.

    "This park is close to Hongshan Park, and it is also an earlier park in Urumqi. It can be regarded as a scenic spot in the local area, free of charge. There are many people inside, especially the people dancing on the square, and the atmosphere is particularly happy. There is a lake in the park, not big, but the lakeside scenery is still very good."
    Urumqi.Hong Shan
    3.2km from downtown
    Highlights: The average altitude of People's Park is 800 meters, and it is located 100 meters west of the "Changqiao Drinking Horse" sculpture. It was originally just a lake on the west bank of the Urumqi River, surrounded by lush ancient trees. When the city of Urumqi was built in the 20th year of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty (1755), the area was turned into a place for officials to rest. In the ninth year of Guangxu (1883), the construction of the garden began. In 1918, Yang Zengxin, who was in charge of Xinjiang, expanded it, dredged the bottom of the lake, renovated the lake shore, and built the Danfeng Chaoyang Pavilion in the style of the ancient Central Plains palace, and then built the Dragon King Temple, Zuixia Pavilion, Xiaochun Pavilion, Jianhu Pavilion, and more. The "Yuewei Thatched Cottage" was built to commemorate Ji Xiaolan, a scholar in the Qing Dynasty. Now the garden is full of trees and flowers. There are gardens in the garden with winding paths, the bizarre "Crystal Palace", sculptures in front of the pavilion, as well as attractions and facilities such as children's amusement parks and roller skating rinks. From spring to autumn, there are flower exhibitions, bonsai exhibitions, calligraphy and painting exhibitions, and photography exhibitions. In the middle of winter, ice sculpture festivals and ice skating activities are often held.
