Sharing the 16 most beautiful spots in Altay in winter

You can drive into the Altay region in winter, and the ticket is only 100 yuan. You can visit Hemu, Kanas, and Baihaba. 🕹 Number of visitors: Hemu > Kanas > Baihaba Kanas has unique winter scenery, with forests and streams, snow mushrooms in winter, morning mist on sunny days. Hemu and Baihaba are somewhat similar, both featuring snowy landscapes with small wooden houses. Hemu has more internet-famous spots and more choices for dining and accommodation, but it's also quite crowded and can be noisy in the afternoon. Baihaba is much quieter, and except for the lone tree where people queue to take photos, there aren't many people in other places. However, Baihaba is also relatively small (I only went to Hemu). 1. Kanas • Near the Kanas Lake cruise ship pier, there are many snow mushrooms on the shore, and there will be morning mist on sunny mornings. 2. Kanas •Shenxian Bay is also a good place to see the morning mist when the weather is good. 3. Kanas • Moon Bay, the lake surface is frozen in winter. 4. Near the Kanas River Bridge. 5. Hemu • At the 5-kilometer mark, the driving scenery along this section is super beautiful. 6. Hemu • Sunrise viewing platform, every photo taken is like an ink painting. 7. Hemu • Sunrise viewing platform, besides scenery, it's also perfect for portraits. 8. Hemu • Muyecafé swing, due to its high location, it's great for taking photos, but there's often a queue. 9. Hemu • A small viewing platform near the Muyecafé swing, where you can also watch the sunset. 10. Hemu • Sunset viewing platform, a small hillside perfect for watching the sunset, but it gets crowded during sunset. 11. Hemu • Small wooden houses, a must-see in Hemu, take a photo of the snowy wooden houses, very characteristic of Hemu. 12. Hemu • Yuanjiang Bridge, not so hidden anymore. 13. Hemu • The woods under Yuanjiang Bridge, with fewer people, perfect for a romantic photoshoot. 14. Hemu • On the way from the sunrise viewing platform to the Harden viewing platform, if you have time, be sure to walk from the sunrise viewing platform to the Harden viewing platform, fewer people and beautiful scenery. 15. Hemu • Hemu Bridge, always bustling, early morning is the least crowded time. 16. Hemu • Hemu River, absolutely stunning during the blue hour.
