游侠半仙The largest Buddhist cave in Xinjiang, it was excavated between the cliffs on the banks of the Muzati River from the 4th to the 8th century, with 236 numbered caves. There are three types of caves: the Great Statue Cave, the Monk's Quarters Cave, and the Qiuci-style caves with spacious main rooms and two sides of the main wall opening to the back corridor. The Qiuci-style caves are the most numerous, with a picture of the heavenly palace preaching painted above the door wall, the stories of the Buddha's life painted in the squares on the left and right walls, and the stories of karma and the previous life painted in the diamond-shaped grids on the top of the vault. The outlines of the figures are mostly in the style of "bending iron and coiling silk", the skin is smudged, and the beams and rafters of the building are colored red and green to show the relationship between the front and back.

哇塔西This site museum is awesome. The ticket price is not high, but you can see the well-preserved tombs with Central Plains characteristics in Xinjiang. The restoration of the tombs and the various pictures, texts and digital videos are also very well done. There are free explanations at the hour, which is worth a closer look.

M60***13It can be said to be the most exciting part of this trip. The actors are beautiful and the dance is graceful. It really has the advantage of nationality. They are beautiful and can dance 💃, which is pleasing to the eyes!

无聊的蓝The ticket price is cheap and the price is high. It's one of Xinjiang's six World Cultural Heritage Sites, though the adjacent grottoes are unfortunately closed. The staff were very friendly. There weren't many tourists, so there weren't any crowds.

M37***52This scenic area offers excellent value for money. Every step inside the Red Stone Forest reveals a new vista; the word "stunning" doesn't even begin to describe the sheer impact of the scenery. It's definitely worth a visit! The value of the Blazing Spring is subjective, but the Devil City along the way is also well worth a trip!

RoszaimyNot accessible by public transport so one needs to hire a private driver. Didn’t see any tour buses either. The setting of the ancient city is fantastic with its towering mountain backdrops. Did feel overall there isn’t many things to see and photograph though. Nonetheless, there is an ‘eastern’ side of the ancient city that is not officially open to the public but the driver brought our group to see. It has more ruins including a still-standing dome. Otherwise, this ‘eastern’ side seems to be under preparation for future opening thus during our visit we saw trucks and cranes doing their works.

202***80The scenery is quite nice, but the infrastructure of the scenic area is truly disappointing. While allowing private cars is convenient, there's a severe lack of signage. There are no road signs, and it's unclear which way to go at many intersections. The large rocks come in various shapes, and while the scenic area lists some names, there are no pictures or descriptions at their locations, so you have to guess which is which on the map. Such a large scenic area has only one restroom, and trash cans are extremely limited, leading to littering in some areas. Of course, the people littering are also quite inconsiderate.
4.6/5RoszaimyQuite some distance from Kuche city. No public transport access so one needs to either hire a driver or get one of the tour packages. The canyon is pretty great but it also depends on the sunlight angle. Certain parts certainly feel extraterrestrial. My visit was on a Sunday so it was pretty crowded and the daytime temperature reached around 35°C during this month of June.
