Southern Xinjiang
I want to recommend you to visit Xinjiang every month. If you can only go to Southern Xinjiang once in your life, then I recommend you go in September or October, when the temperature is comfortable, the poplar trees are golden, the fruits are fragrant, and you won’t miss out on any of the delicious food or beautiful scenery.
Xinjiang is remote and difficult to travel through, so to make your time worthwhile, we will traverse the most beautiful highway in Xinjiang – the Taklamakan Desert Highway, pass through the hinterland of Southern Xinjiang, and delve deep into the Pamir Plateau! Rivers and lakes, deserts and poplar forests, cultural relics, ethnic customs, canyons and Buddhist grottoes, snow-capped mountains and glaciers, plateau wetlands.
