10-Day Journey to Altay in Northern Xinjiang

Pushing open the morning mist of Altay in Northern Xinjiang is like turning the pages of a fairy tale left behind by the gods. With ten full days, we are no longer just passing travelers but diving headfirst into this "Divine Back Garden" gently embraced by snow-capped mountains, lakes, forests, and pastoral melodies. Search for the legend of the lake monster in Kanas Lake, feel the pulse of the Tuvan people amidst the smoke rising from the wooden houses in Hemu Village, chase galloping horses along the pastures of Koktokay, and lose yourself in the golden sunset of Colorful Beach... This journey is enough to etch the vastness and poetry of Northern Xinjiang into your bones, becoming an unforgettable rhapsody of a lifetime.
