Xinjiang Kanas National Geopark

When Kanas professional photographers arrived at Kanas scenic spot on September 10, 2024, they saw a small number of photographers holding up their cameras, long guns and cannons to capture the wonderful moments, and set Kanas' beauty in the lens. More tourists take cameras and make a card to leave a good memory on this trip. Overall, there are not many people who see in Kanas taking photos with professional cameras. Unlike many lotus shots in Shenzhen Honghu Park, professional cameras are still too big and too troublesome.

Here are some comments about Hemu Village:
- Beautiful scenery: Hemu Village is surrounded by mountains, forests, grasslands, rivers and snow-capped mountains, and the scenery of each season is different. In autumn, the birch forest is golden, and the scattered cabins complement each other. The smoke from cooking rises, forming a beautiful pastoral scenery, which is a paradise for photography enthusiasts; in winter, it is covered with snow and silver, like a fairy tale world of ice and snow. The blue ice of the Hemu River is deep and blue in the sun, and it is dazzling.
- Full of primitive flavor: The houses here are all made of logs. Kazakhs and Tuvans live here, retaining a strong ethnic style and traditional culture. Visitors can enjoy the characteristic song and dance performances of the Tuvans, participate in traditional activities such as fur skiing and horse-drawn sleighs, and feel the charm and vitality of the ancient nation.
- Rich experience: There are many attractions such as Harden Observation Deck, Hemu Bridge, and Birch Forest for sightseeing. You can also go to Jikepulin Ski Resort to ski and enjoy the fun brought by projects such as snowmobiles.
- Tempting food: You can taste Tuva people's dairy products, barbecue, grilled fish and other special foods, as well as local snacks such as baked naan and hand-pulled rice, which emit tempting aroma in the warm house.
- Special accommodation: There are Hemu Old Village and New Village to choose from. The old village is lively, convenient for food and accommodation, and close to the scenic spots; the new village has newer houses and better accommodation conditions. In addition, there are wooden house B&Bs to experience the original style. Some B&Bs are equipped with electric floor heating and independent bathrooms, but the price is higher in the snow season and the supply is in short supply.

The scenic spot is really good ~ There are scenery and mines. It is a completely different experience. It is very suitable for seeing. The only downside is that the scenery part of the car is more difficult to wait for the next car to get off the bus. Someone can get on but the scenery is really good!

Great value! At dusk, board the observation deck, look far away, only see the sunset melt gold, the sky is high and the clouds are low! The rock color is different, colorful, like color castles, monsters, peaks, and colorful, mainly red, with green, purple, yellow, white, black and transition colors, colorful, gorgeous and charming; There is also the blue Erqis River, the yellow-green Populus euphratica forest, and the snowy peaks. Colorful and beautiful, no wonder it is called colorful beaches. Maybe God accidentally knocked over the color palette here, you don't miss it!

It is like a rural life. If you come here, you will not be disappointed. It is not as fast as action. It is pleasant to travel here. The autumn scenery is picturesque...

The first time I went to Xinjiang, General Mountain was so pleasantly surprised. There were handsome guys on the cable car to help you get the snowboard. I didn't move my hands! Because I had to go to and from the top of the mountain to shoot, I bought a three-day joint ticket, skied in the afternoon, and shot the sunset in the evening. I was very tired and beautiful. I couldn't slide the night, so I needed to take the cable car down the mountain. We'll meet again on the golden avenue.

Kanas is the water of the king
Kanas means "water of the king". Genghis Khan once hit this water on his way to war, hence the name.
Kanas Lake is located in the north of Burqin County, Altay Prefecture, Xinjiang. It starts from Kalemaxu in the north, reaches Hewut in the south, connects to Tiewaike in the east, and reaches Alguisala in the west. It is located at 48°81′46″N, 87°04′10″E, 150 kilometers away from Burqin County, at the junction of four countries. It is a lake in the middle of mountains.
The beauty of Kanas Lake is mainly reflected in its emerald green water. The lake water is clear and can be seen to the bottom, but it is unpredictable and changes with the changes of sunlight and cloud shadows.
The color of the lake water is completely different with the depth of the lake, and the color of the lake water in several scenic spots is also different. The colors of the water I saw when I visited Kanas Lake on September 10, 2024 and Shenxian Bay, Moon Bay and Wolong Bay on September 11 were very different. Kanas Lake is really magical.

The snow quality is good, the scenery is beautiful, and there are many tracks. Except for the long way up the mountain, everything else is really good! The ski school is not expensive, and it’s so fun to ski! In addition, the food here is not bad! There is a cafe in each cable car area where you can rest, and you can also come and experience it if you don’t want to ski!

The first time I came to Xinjiang, I saw the Yadan landform for the first time. I was amazed at everything that nature brought. On the edge of Wulungu Lake, the lake light and the Devil City reflected each other, and I was amazed! Not to mention us so far
Ulungu Lake National Wetland Park

The lake is clear and the scenery is beautiful. Ulungur Lake is worth a visit. It is the farthest sea from the sea. It is really beautiful. I guess the fish in the lake must be very big. You can go swimming. It's just that the weather is cold now. It must be very comfortable to go into the water when it's hot.
