Urumqi early November surrounding area independent travel live broadcast! Nanshan Pasture⛰️ is worth a 1-hour round trip! If you're short on time or on a business trip, Nanshan Baiyanggou is a great place to take photos of natural scenery.
Xinjiang is beautiful all year round, and it's only an hour's drive from Urumqi, so it's a great value.
🧭Navigation: Nanshan Pasture - Shenbulake Waterfall
Drive to the reception area where there is a parking lot🅿️. You can walk or take a shuttle bus (20) to the waterfall. The whole road is natural scenery, and it's beautiful in summer.
🌟Take the shuttle bus to save time for the next attraction.
❄️Eat some lamb skewers and chicken at the foot of the mountain to recharge.
(The food in the parking lot is average.) You can bring some food and clothes up the mountain.
——
🧊Navigate directly to "Tianshan Observatory" for free, where you can overlook the entire Tianshan Mountains. You can also take road photos along the way, as there are basically no cars.
🧊Continue to navigate to Xiaoqiuzi Valley Qinglongtan Scenic Area,
You can ride a horse to the snow mountain at the foot of the mountain.
You can also ride for half an hour for 50. It's getting dark now, so it's time to end🔚.
🌟If you're lucky, you'll see some animals. We saw a little fox.
The snowy road is beautiful, with cows and sheep grazing freely on both sides. You can roll down the window to take photos.
📍Take Provincial Highway 109 back to Urumqi and avoid peak hours.
🧊If you have time, ride a horse and eat at a farmhouse.
Wait for the night to fall at Nanshan Pasture and quietly enjoy the sunset and the stars.
According to local herdsmen, there are many meteors when the weather is good.
🤍I really love Xinjiang, and it's worth singing about at any time.

It's not that Chaxi is unaffordable, but rather that the Nanshan area of Urumqi offers better value for money
Don't need to go to Yili, there are such grassland landscapes around Urumqi as well!
Urumqi suburbs, a day trip is possible
📍Xiaoquzi
🧭: 1.5 hours by car
🛣️: The whole journey is on asphalt roads, with a section of mountain bends
🍱: Many farm stays and camping bases along the way
📷:
❶ There is a viewing platform at the entrance of the village with a broad view
❷ It is recommended to choose a farm stay near the east side, as it is very convenient to go hiking in the back mountains, with separate shepherd's paths and wooden plank roads that you can walk on, offering much better scenery than the west side and is great for checking in
❸ On both sides of the river are camping bases, with the riverside campsites having better locations, but reservations are needed during peak times
💡
❶ The place is also crowded on holidays, and if you want to go to a camping base, you must book in advance
❷ There are many bends on the scenic road, and there are often people parking and camping by the roadside, so drive carefully and slowly, and be sure to give way
❸ It is recommended to go to the mountains early to find a spot, as there is no entrance fee here but by noon there is almost no place to park
