It is recommended to spend at least 7 days traveling in Xinjiang, with the best duration being 9-10 days or longer, depending on the tourist route and personal interests.?
Xinjiang has a vast territory and numerous attractions. If you only plan to visit for three or four days, you may not be able to fully appreciate its scenery. Therefore, it is recommended to arrange at least 7 days for an in-depth tour. Of course, if you have sufficient time, 9-10 days or longer will allow you to better experience the natural beauty and cultural charm of Xinjiang.?
Specifically, the time required for different tourist routes varies. For example, the Kanas loop route requires 5-7 days, the Yili loop route requires 6-10 days, and the Kashi-Yili loop route requires 11-13 days. The Northern Xinjiang Grand Loop and the Southern Xinjiang Grand Loop, on the other hand, require 13-17 days respectively. Additionally, there are more detailed itinerary arrangements, such as an 8-day in-depth tour or a perfect 9-day, 8-night itinerary, all of which will allow you to fully experience the charm of Xinjiang.?
Therefore, when planning a trip to Xinjiang, you can choose the appropriate route and number of days based on your time and interests.?
