Behind the Flaming Mountains of Turpan, there are buildings beyond your imagination

Many people visit the Flaming Mountains⛰️ when they come to Turpan, but actually, behind the Flaming Mountains, there is a spectacular park with few people and beautiful scenery. Moreover, this is the real filming location of the 1986 version of Journey to the West. Here, you can not only photograph unique Western-style architecture and artistic sculptures themed around Journey to the West, but also see replicas of the old houses of Bayi, Buddha murals, and more. On regular days, there are almost no people, so you can take pictures freely as if you have the whole place to yourself. There are also free grapes to eat, handmade dyed cloth, and other ethnic handicraft displays. 🚪Ticket: 45 for adults, 22.5 for students 🚗Transportation: You can park at the entrance parking lot for free🆓 📍Navigation: Xinjiang Desert Art Museum (Wanfo Palace) 👇🏻Location: At the foot of the back mountain of the Flaming Mountains in Turpan, Xinjiang ⏰Opening hours: 8:00~21:00 🌈Travel tips: 1. The temperature of the Flaming Mountains is no joke, so make sure to protect yourself from the sun. 2. You can try the Flaming Mountain roasted eggs here; the Hami melons and watermelons in Turpan are especially sweet. 3. Bring plenty of water and stay hydrated. Turpan is not close to Urumqi, but you can visit it on your way from Urumqi. You don't need to spend too much time; half a day to a day in Turpan is enough.
