Time Arrangement: June is the golden season for tourism in Xinjiang. It is recommended to arrange for half a month, i.e., around 15 days, to fully experience the natural scenery and cultural customs of Xinjiang.?
Route Selection: You can choose the Great Northern and Southern Xinjiang Loop Route, or select specific routes in Northern or Southern Xinjiang based on personal interests. Northern Xinjiang focuses on natural scenery, while Southern Xinjiang focuses more on human history and culture.?
II. Scenic Spot Recommendations?
Urumqi: As the capital of Xinjiang, Urumqi is a must-visit destination. You can visit the Grand Bazaar to experience the local customs and traditions; explore Hongshan Park and Xinjiang Museum to understand the history and culture of Xinjiang.?
S101 Hundred-Mile Danxia: Known as the "God’s overturned palette", its unique scenery always brings surprises to people.?
Anjihai Grand Canyon: After hundreds of millions of years of river erosion and snow erosion, the cliffs of Anjihai Grand Canyon appear particularly spectacular.?
Sayram Lake: Known as the "tear of the Atlantic Ocean", it boasts picturesque lakes and mountains, making people reluctant to leave.?
Guozigou Bridge: Driving on the bridge allows you to take in the panoramic view. The dense and tall spruce forests on both sides offer a spectacular scenery.?
Lavender Manor: From June to mid-July is the peak blooming period of lavender. The lavender here is similar to the world-famous lavender originating from Provence and is very suitable for taking photos.?
III. Precautions?
Weather Changes: The weather in Xinjiang is unpredictable, experiencing four seasons in one day with large diurnal temperature differences. It is recommended to bring a warm coat and sunscreen products, such as sunscreen lotion, sun umbrella, sunglasses, etc.?
Dietary Habits: Xinjiang is rich in beef and mutton cuisine, but eating beef and mutton can easily get stuck in your teeth, so it is recommended to bring dental floss. At the same time, Xinjiang fruits have high sugar content, so don’t eat too much to avoid gastrointestinal discomfort.?
Transportation: Xinjiang has a vast territory with long distances between attractions. It is recommended to plan your itinerary in advance and choose suitable transportation. If you have enough time and budget, you can choose to travel by self-driving or chartered car to enjoy the scenery more freely.?
Shopping Tips: When purchasing small crafts at shopping places such as the Grand Bazaar, be careful of price inflation and avoid being deceived.?
Contract Safety: Be sure to sign a contract with the Tourism Regulatory Bureau and refuse private contracts. The contract details should be written clearly to protect your rights and interests.?
IV. Other Suggestions?
Travel off-peak: June has not yet reached the summer vacation period, so there are fewer people and more beautiful scenery, making it suitable for traveling off-peak.?
Book early: Flights and hotels should be booked in advance to enjoy more favorable prices and better services.?
Through the above guide, I believe you can fully experience the natural scenery and cultural customs of Xinjiang in June and have an unforgettable travel experience.?
