What do you think of the Populus euphratica forest in Shaya?

We went to Shaya 139 Secret Land. The scenic area is free, and the road is narrow. It is very quiet inside, with no commercial activity. It should be a former country road that is now protected as a scenic area. I went there from Shaya County on October 17. After entering the scenic area, I drove along the road, with Populus euphratica trees on both sides. But the leaves had either fallen or were not completely yellow. After driving for more than 40 km, I turned around and left. I really didn't want to drive any further. At an inconspicuous T-junction in the scenic area, there was a sign pointing to Hadun Town. On the way from Qiemo County to Shaya on the 16th, I passed Hadun Town. The road through this town is called Hayou Road, which is very beautiful, with yellow Populus euphratica trees. So we planned to take this small road to Hadun Town, so we could drive along Hayou Road again. This small road is unpaved, and there was no one there. There were Populus euphratica trees, desert, and Gobi on both sides of the road. The Populus euphratica trees were not tall, but they were all yellow and very beautiful. There was no cell phone signal. After driving for 30 km, we were blocked by quicksand. The road was completely buried by the desert. As we were driving a two-wheel drive car, we didn't dare to go any further. We had to drive 30 km back to 139 Secret Land Road and go to Hayou Road from the entrance of 139 Secret Land. We drove there once on the evening of the 16th. On the 17th, the sun was shining, and the Populus euphratica forest was even more beautiful. There are many small roads on both sides of Hayou Road. You can drive inside. The Populus euphratica forest is really beautiful, with no tourists. You can take photos and fly drones. I think it is much more beautiful than 139 Secret Land. Maybe I didn't see the most beautiful time of 139 Secret Land, but I saw the most beautiful Populus euphratica forest in Shaya. Friends in Shaya, you can go there now.
