It is feasible to travel in Xinjiang without renting a car.?
When traveling in Xinjiang without renting a car, tourists have multiple other options. Firstly, self-driving tourism is a popular way. Most of the roads in Xinjiang are paved with asphalt, and there is no altitude sickness. As long as tourists have sufficient driving experience and physical strength, self-driving tourism can be a highly flexible and relatively low-cost option.?
In addition, tourists can also choose to travel by public transportation, such as trains, airplanes, and shuttle buses, to enjoy Xinjiang. For example, one can take a train from Urumqi to Altay, then share a ride or take a shuttle bus to other attractions, and finally take a high-speed train or airplane back to Urumqi or other cities.?
However, not renting a car also requires attention to some issues. The scenic spots in Xinjiang are relatively scattered, and accommodation needs to be booked at different attractions, otherwise, tourists may have to travel back and forth. At the same time, the road conditions in Xinjiang are complex, especially the road segments near scenic areas, and self-driving requires certain driving experience and safety awareness.?
If choosing public transportation, it is also necessary to plan the itinerary in advance and understand the train schedules and frequencies to avoid delaying the travel plan.?
In addition, although not renting a car can save some expenses, tourists may need to spend more time and energy on transportation. Therefore, when choosing not to rent a car, tourists need to weigh the relationship between time, cost, and travel experience.?
In summary, it is feasible to travel in Xinjiang without renting a car, but one needs to make an appropriate choice based on their actual situation and needs.?
