To enjoy the most beautiful autumn colors in Hotan, Xinjiang, the Populus euphratica forest here is so shocking! Many tourists have heard the word "Hotan", but there are not many people who step on this land. Hotan, an important city on the Silk Road, was known as Yu Xuan in ancient times, and one of the four towns in Anxi, the Anxidu Hufu in the Tang Dynasty, has been a place full of stories since ancient times. Hotan is still a charming tourist attraction, but not known to most tourists. In the late autumn season, our group came to Hotan. During the driving tour, we found that the oasis here is far larger than expected. If you compare the most beautiful autumn color in China, Hotan's Populus euphratica forest is definitely on the list, because it is really shocking. Poplars, known as "miracles in the desert", can grow to 200 years old and live in extreme arid deserts. Although they are slightly better than no-man's land, they are also a no-go zone for many creatures. In a desert with large evaporation and very little rainfall, Populus euphratica takes deep roots underground and tells people what it is called "booming power" with tenacious vitality. The Hotan desert Populus euphratica forest is continuous, and the Populus euphratica trees stand on the dunes or flatlands, dyeing the desert into thick ink oil paintings. Walking forward, the golden yellow in front of us cheered us. I think no matter how skilled a painter can't describe its beauty, he can only draw a specific detail. In such a beautiful, dreamy autumn color, everyone can't help but make a sound of praise. At this moment, any word is pale, only by being immersed in the situation can you truly experience the shock you feel deep in your heart. It is a wonderful experience. Life is always adapting to the environment to adapt to the harsh conditions facing it, Populus can not speak, but interpret what is called "indomitable" with practical actions. We couldn't help but shoot at the first moment when we stepped into the Populus euphratica forest, so that we spent a lot of time in a relatively flat position. When we turned over the hill and reached another dune, we found that the scenery we saw was more beautiful and shocking than before, but at this time the sky was gradually darkening. Must set off early on the return journey. Hotan Damo Populus euphratica forest, it takes three or four hours to walk, but for most tourists, it takes not too much time to spend a day. It is very suitable for taking pictures, whether it is scenery photos or portrait photos, it is beautiful to take pictures. The best time to shoot is the first three hours after the sun comes out in the morning and the first three hours after the sun jumps off the horizon in the evening.
