Check-in at Tianshan Grand Canyon

Tianshan Grand Canyon is located in Urumqi County, 48 kilometers from the city center. The scenic area covers a total area of 1038.48 square kilometers, surrounded by mountains on three sides, with an average altitude of 2020 meters and an annual average temperature of 4-6°C. It boasts the most complete and valuable original snow-capped spruce forest on the northern slope of Tianshan, encompassing all natural landscapes of Xinjiang except for deserts. It serves as a living museum of nomadic culture before the advent of agricultural civilization, offering high tourism, scientific research, and historical cultural value. Tianshan Grand Canyon is a national forest park, a national sports and leisure base, and a national 5A-level scenic spot. Zhaobi Mountain, the main mountain at the entrance of the Tianshan Grand Canyon, is densely covered with pure Tianshan spruce forests. The mountain extends in a northeast-southwest direction, surrounded by water on three sides, and forms a pyramid shape up to 400 meters high on the side. The spruce forests on Zhaobi Mountain are tall and dense, the valley is flat and open, covered with lush green grass, and the streams at the bottom of the valley are cool and refreshing, making the scenery very beautiful. In the scorching summer, coming to Tianshan Grand Canyon to escape the heat is also a good choice. Detailed address: Dengcaogou Village, Banfanggou Town, Urumqi County, Xinjiang
