The world's only desert Populus euphratica forest park

Autumn is the time to visit the Populus euphratica forest above the desert Gobi, known as the 'immortal sacred tree'. The golden Populus euphratica forest extends an invitation to tourists from all over the country, with a three-thousand-year wait for the splendid golden autumn, all for your arrival! The fairy-tale-like Populus euphratica forest is about to go viral on the internet! With a vista of golden hues and sunlight scattered among them, it is beautiful and spectacular. Don't miss out on this autumn~ Having been enchanted by the Populus euphratica forest in Ejina, it is only in Xinjiang that one realizes that 61% of the world's Populus euphratica forests are in China, and 89% of China's Populus euphratica forests are in Xinjiang. The largest of these is on the northern edge of the Tarim Basin, in the Tarim Populus euphratica forest within the territory of Luntai County, by the Tarim River. Here lies the 'oldest, largest, and most well-preserved' original Populus euphratica forest of over a million acres. In the Uyghur language, Populus euphratica is called 'Toklak', meaning 'the most beautiful tree'. It possesses a tenacious vitality and an astonishing ability to resist drought, wind, sand, and salinity, earning it the nickname 'hero tree of the desert'.
