You can travel to Xinjiang in November. However, please note the following points:
Weather Conditions: In November, the weather in Xinjiang is mainly snowy and sunny, with average temperatures ranging from -5°C to 10°C. Temperatures vary in different regions, for example, Altay has average temperatures ranging from -9°C to 1°C, while Kashgar has average temperatures ranging from -2°C to 10°C. The temperature difference between morning and evening is particularly large, so be sure to bring thick clothes. Additionally, the ultraviolet rays in Xinjiang are strong throughout the year, so sunscreen protection is also necessary.
Scenic Characteristics: In mid-to-late November, the snowy scenery of northern Xinjiang is picturesque, covered with vast snow, with snow-capped mountains and coniferous forests stretching endlessly, resembling a dreamlike world. In southern Xinjiang, autumn is crisp and cool with moderate temperatures. You can visit the Pamir Plateau to admire the magnificent scenery of snow-capped mountains and glaciers, or go to China’s largest wild Populus euphratica forest to enjoy the autumn scenery.
Travel Suggestions: Due to the significant difference in scenery between southern and northern Xinjiang and the long travel time, it is not recommended to visit both regions at once to avoid aesthetic fatigue. You can choose to visit southern or northern Xinjiang based on personal preferences. Southern Xinjiang focuses on cultural landscapes, while northern Xinjiang boasts enchanting snowy scenery.
In summary, traveling to Xinjiang in November is feasible, but it requires corresponding preparations and planning based on the weather and scenic characteristics.
