This place must go to punch in because the scenery is beautiful, the environment is not bad, people feel relaxed and relaxed 🙃"Kashgar.Ancient City of Kashgar>100 km from downtownAncient TownsNighttime sightseeingNo.3 of Family-friendly Attractions in XinjiangHighlights: The ancient city of Kashgar is located in Xinjiang and has a history of several hundred years. It is one of the famous tourist attractions in Kashgar and even Xinjiang. Most of the buildings in the ancient city are full of unique styles. The streets are crisscrossed and have a unified style, which is very suitable for taking pictures. Tourists strolling in it seem to have walked into the exotic land of Central Asia, which is very spectacular. In addition, the ancient city of Kashgar is also an important filming location for the movie "The Kite Runner". You can come here to find familiar scenes in the movie.The old city of Kashgar is mainly composed of Id Kah Temple. It is an irregularly shaped urban area with a length and width of nearly 2 kilometers. There are many streets and alleys in the old city, where you can stroll around and take pictures along the way, which takes about half a day. The recommended route is to visit Id Kah Temple first, then travel east along Chasa Road, and end the tour at the high-rise residential buildings on the east side and Kashgar East Bazaar. In addition, many tourists who come to Kashgar will stay in the old city and spend a few days slowly savoring the historical charm here.Visiting the ancient city of Kashgar means appreciating the unique architecture and streets here. Most of the buildings in the ancient city have been renovated, and the houses are relatively new and intact, but the rich local customs have been retained during the renovation. Here you can see colored earth walls and brick walls, with round arches, colorful doors and windows and other special decorations, which are very beautiful and can be photographed along the way. In addition, if you want to experience more primitive and unique architecture, you can also visit the high-rise houses on the riverside on the east side of the ancient city.In addition to appreciating the architecture, many tourists will also visit the many special shops on the streets of the old city. Almost every street in the old city has its own theme, called a bazaar ("Bazaar" means market in Uyghur). Among them are Kantuman Bazar (Blacksmith Street), Dopa Bazar (Flower Hat Street), Flower Pot Bazar, Handicraft Bazar, Pottery Bazar, etc., each with its own characteristics, which can be seen along the way. There are also teahouses with special styles on the street, vendors selling special snacks such as grapes, naan, goat milk ice cream, etc., and you can also eat and stroll while shopping, which is very pleasant.In addition, there are some houses in the city that you can visit. Generally, there are instructions on the door of these houses. After entering, you can visit the interior of typical local houses, but you usually need to buy some household goods. On the streets of the old city, you can also see grandfathers basking in the sun and children playing, with a strong sense of life.There are several important attractions when visiting the ancient city. For example, the Id Kah Temple in the ancient city is one of the largest temples in the country. The temple has magnificent buildings, and the five daily prayers are even more grand, which can witness the strong religious atmosphere. The high-rise residential buildings on the east side of the ancient city are the preserved ancient city areas, and the mud houses and cross-street buildings are very unique. The Kashgar East Bazar (i.e. Kashgar Central and West Asia International Trade Market) across the river on the east side is a famous shopping mall in Kashgar, where many Xinjiang specialties and handicrafts such as dried fruits, silk products, essential oils, and Yingjisha knives are gathered.Show Less
- 5.24.5/5867 ReviewFreebased on 111 reviews"Hongshan Park is a must-see place for foreign visitors to Urumqi. Opposite Hongshan Park is the Demon Mountain. There is a Big Buddha Temple on the mountain and a Red Mountain Pagoda. The park is shaded by trees. There are various entertainment equipment for children to play."Urumqi.Hong Shan>100 km from downtownCity ParksNighttime sightseeingNo.20 of Fall Viewing Attractions in XinjiangHighlights: The main body of the park, Hongshan, is composed of purple glutenite, and the mountain is ochre red, which is very unique. In the park, you can walk in the forest, go boating on the lake, visit cultural buildings such as statues of Buddhist temples, experience various amusement projects, and climb the top of the mountain to overlook the panoramic view of the city. It is also a must-see attraction for foreign tourists visiting Uzbekistan. The park is small in size, about five or six hundred meters in length and width, and you can walk around after entering. There is a red mountain in the park, with an altitude of about 900 meters, but the drop from the mountain is only about 100 or tens of meters. There are many trees between the mountain roads and the environment is very good. It takes about half an hour to climb the mountain here. If you are not physically strong, you can take a sightseeing bus from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain. The park mainly has several entrances on the east side. The entrances are a little difficult to find. After seeing the park from other areas such as Youhao Parkson, you need to go around the park from the east side, and then enter westward from the North Lane 1 of Hongshan Road and Xinmin West Street. There are mainly several areas such as Hongshan Pagoda, Dafo Temple and Yuanqiao Building when playing. Hongshan Tower is located on the top of Hongshan Mountain on the west side. It is a nine-story germanium red tower, which is the same color as the red mountain below, very special. At the Hongshan Tower, you can take a panoramic view of the urban area below, and the field of vision is very wide. The overlooking building is located in the park and also on the top of the mountain. It is also possible to take panoramic views of the city here, but it is not too different from the Hongshan Tower. It is not recommended to buy a ticket to go there. Located on the north side of the park, the Big Buddha Temple is an antique temple where tourists can worship Buddha and pray for blessings.Show Less

The Peacock River, not called and also called Yinma River, its only source is from Bosten Lake, the water source is from the Kaidu River, legend is that because the East Han Banchao once drank horses here, so it is called Yinma River. It is the most beautiful scenery of Korla City, the summer river banks are shaded by trees, tourists are like weaving, the winter swans dance, along the river jade water like belt, a hundred steps, like a drifting belt through the city, is a good place for people to relax and take a walk, but also the "mother river" in the hearts of Korla City."Korla>100 km from downtownRiversNighttime sightseeingHighlights: The Peacock River is also known as the Drinking Horse River. It is said that Banchao in the Eastern Han Dynasty once drank horses here, hence the name. The Kongque River is a rare non-tributary water system. Its only source comes from Bosten Lake. It overflows from the west of the lake and flows through Korla and Yuli counties. Peacock River is a poetic name, and it is extremely rare in Xinjiang to have a river running through the city like Korla. But for many years, the citizens of Korla have not enjoyed the beauty of the Peacock River. The Uyghur villagers living on both sides of the river call it "Cobbler River". The Peacock River originates from Bosten Lake and flows through the Tiemenguan Gorge through the city of Korla. It is the lifeblood of industry, agriculture and economy in Korla. The total length of the Kongque River is 785 kilometers. The river flows continuously throughout the year, with an annual runoff of 1.2 billion cubic meters and a stable flow throughout the year. The Peacock River Scenic Tourism Belt starts from the 314 National Road Peacock River Bridge and ends at the Sun Island in the countryside, with a total length of about 10 kilometers. At present, there are four parks planned (Botanical Garden, Peacock Park, Youth Park, Ethnic Customs Garden); five bridges (Lion Bridge, Lixiang Bridge, Jianshe Bridge, Sunflower Bridge, Jianguo Bridge); seven scenic spots (Diaoyu Garden, Lixiang Garden, Observation deck, Fengjian Square, Hundred Gardens, Peacock Square, Unity Garden). The Peacock River Scenic Tourism Belt has become a good place for the people of "Pear City" to relax and enjoy the cool air.Show Less
