    Damei Xinjiang is full of scenery, everywhere, but you care if you don't. Xinjiang's attractions have their own characteristics and have their own advantages. Dushanzi Grand Canyon is a canyon mainly formed by the erosion of flowing water, which has achieved the natural style of the place, and more satisfied the needs of people's vision scanning of natural resources and styles. It is atmospheric and traumatic. It is old-fashioned or stereotyped. It makes people linger and makes people want to "step by step" body taste, Dushanzi Grand Canyon, you are awesome! Your spirit is moving. Although the past hundreds of millions of years still make people miss you very much.

    The scenery of Antlers Bay is really super invincible. The mobile phone is so beautiful. Besides, if it is a professional photographer, it is another effect. One thing is particularly important is that you must choose the right season to come here. We came to the green at the end of August. It has begun to fade slowly. So it's best to come here in June and July.

    Free attractions. The scenery along the way is very beautiful. If you drive by yourself, you can stop in a safe area to take pictures with cattle, sheep and horses. There is also grass skiing. There are rivers, mountains and herdsmen's felt houses along the way. I also chatted with herdsmen along the way. It was a very pleasant experience. There should be a few more tourist spots along the way, but they need to be located in certain places, so I didn't go. It is not far from the Duku Highway.

    The scenic spot is very beautiful, it is very recommended to drive by car, there are many beautiful places to take the shuttle bus. We spent a day playing the sky grassland line. The sea of flowers on the road is really beautiful. The net red bridge feels average, but it is very beautiful to continue to go up with the creek forest. Tickets are valid for 48 hours. The next morning, I drove away the Panlong Valley Road and River Valley Grassland Line. The river valley grassland is average and the Panlong Valley Road Line is very beautiful. It has been experienced on cloudy and rainy days and sunny days. It is still beautiful on rainy days, but it is really good to take pictures on sunny days. The bathroom in the scenic area is very clean, and there are many places to eat and buy water.

    远山青语朝朝.远山青语朝朝.

    Walking into the Nalati grassland, as if stepping into the natural picture carefully drawn by God! As the perfect blend of "air grassland" and valley pastures, the development here is mature but not natural wild fun - the flat sightseeing lanes connect the whole grassland, even with the elderly and children can easily visit, no need to worry about walking tired. In the middle of summer, wild flowers blooming into color waves, the smoke rising from the room, and flocks of cattle and sheep dotted it. In the evening, the sunset will dye the continuous hills golden, the snowy mountains in the distance are looming, and the beauty in front of you can't help but sigh: the original "poetry and distance" really exists! Although there are many tourists in the peak season, the perfect facilities, rich folk performances and convenient catering services still make it the first choice for family outings. It is definitely an immersive grassland trip to heal the body and mind!

    This remote and mysterious land, the Urhe Devil City in Karamay, Xinjiang, shows the magic of nature with its unique Yadan landform. The rock has been eroded by the wind for years, and it has carved out strange shapes, as if it is a sculpture of the earth, and every place contains natural wisdom and art. The rich changes in color, like the miracle on the palette, especially in the golden hour of sunrise and sunset, the entire Devil City was dyed a layer of gold, beautiful and breathless.
