Hemu Village: In July, wildflowers bloom in Hemu Village, and the starry sky at night is very beautiful, making it an excellent place to experience the beauty of primitive forests and grasslands.?
Sayram Lake: Known as "The Last Tear of the Atlantic Ocean", its clear blue waters make it one of the most popular attractions in Xinjiang.?
Nalati Grassland: The grassland is vast and green, with herds of cattle and sheep. In July, the grassland is even greener, and flowers still bloom everywhere, making it a paradise for horse riding, grazing, and picnicking.?
Duku Highway: Known as the "Scenic Avenue Running Through the Backbone of Tianshan Mountains", it offers breathtaking views of snow-capped mountains, lakes, canyons, grasslands, and other natural landscapes, making it an excellent choice for self-driving.?
In addition, Tianshan Tianchi is also a must-visit attraction. It is known as the "Fairyland on Earth", with emerald-green lake water surrounded by mountains, making it an ideal place to escape the heat.?
If you have enough time, you can also consider the route in southern Xinjiang, such as the old town of Kashgar, Id Kah Mosque, and Kashgar Old Town, where you can experience the rich Uyghur culture.?
During the trip, it is recommended to take sunscreen measures as Xinjiang has strong ultraviolet rays. At the same time, due to the large temperature difference between day and night, remember to bring a jacket. In addition, there is a two-hour time difference between Xinjiang and the mainland, and the network may be unstable, so it is recommended to prepare in advance.?
