Xu Qianya’s song "Take the Train to Lhasa" is popular all over the country. The lyrics say, "Take the train to Lhasa, to see the magical Potala, to see the most beautiful gypsophila flowers blooming under the snow-capped mountains." But I want to change the lyrics to attract more people to be fascinated by the beauty of Xinjiang, "Take the train to Xinjiang, to see the most beautiful Kanas presented under the Friendship Peak".
