Xinjiang Kanas National Geopark

The scenery is beautiful and the shuttle bus is convenient. The disadvantage is that the ticket price and the cost of eating in the scenic area are relatively high, and tolls are also charged for self-driving into the area. The hotels in the scenic area are also relatively convenient, and self-driving is very suitable.

Hemu Scenic Area

Hemu is so beautiful. This village is very beautiful, especially when we went in mid-to-late September, the white hemu became golden, and when we went there just snowed, the autumn scenery and snow scenes were intertwined, giving people a dreamy feeling. I will not leave regrets when I have been to Hemu. This place is highly recommended.

王晋德
Kanas is the water of the king, which means "the water of the king". It was hit during the journey of Genghis Khan, so it was named. Kanas Lake is located in the north of Burqin County, Altay region, Xinjiang, from Karemaxu to the north, to Houth to the south, to the east to the railway outside, and to the west to Alguesala. Located at 48°81′46″, 87°04′10″, 150 kilometers from Burqin County, at the junction of four countries, it is a lake in the middle of the mountains and mountains. The beauty of Kanas Lake is mainly reflected in its emerald-green lake water. The lake is crystal clear, but it changes in unfathomable, changing with the changes of sunlight and cloud shadow. With the depth of the lake, the color of the lake is completely different, and the color of the lake water in several scenic spots is also different. From September 10, 2024 to Kanas Lake and September 11 to Shenxian Bay, the color of the water seen in Wolong Bay, Moon Bay, has a big difference. It is really a magical Kanas Lake.

It’s okay to play for leisure. It’s a very leisurely attraction. There are many colors on the colorful beach. There are several observation decks when you walk in. I personally feel that the scenery is quite good. I also saw some plants on the ground and some strange landforms.

The "sky grassland" of Baihaba is so beautiful. Standing on the hillside of the grassland, with the background of distant mountains, winding mountain roads, and cattle and sheep on the grassland, you who live in the city should definitely take a look.

The scenery is first-class, whether it is sunny, rainy, cloudy, or snow in winter, the scenery has its own characteristics, not what we can see in the mainland. However, in the peak season, everything is expensive, and it is also unimaginable in the mainland scenic spots, including accommodation and catering, and it is said that it is local regulations, and there is no counter-offer.

If you are not afraid of the distance, you can choose to go to Kanas for vacation. The pure natural scenery, the cleanest air, colorful trees, crystal clear lakes and charming beauty here will make you linger.

Three Bays of Kanas Scenic Area

北国之春一
Kanas Three Bays, the Bays are wonderful, and the scenery is different. Shenxian Bay, Moon Bay, Wolong Bay Three Bays are like a green ribbon, surrounded by mountains and forests, connecting the magnificent and magical Kanas, which is a beautiful scenery that Kanas cannot be missed. The original habitat is worth recommending to all friends. The scenic spot has a Jingjiao car to reach Shenxian Bay, Moon Bay and Wolong Bay. The physical strength is good. You can take the plank road to cross the three bays. If you have poor physical strength, you can take the Jingjiao car and get off at the observation deck to watch, which is convenient and free. Kanas Sanwan is as gentle and charming as white yarn, and as intoxicating as a fairyland.

Jikepulin Ski Resort is so beautiful, the ski trails are long, and the ski tickets are very cost-effective compared to other ski resorts in China. The supporting facilities are also very complete. I like Jikepulin and I will come again.
