Kanas is beautiful, but I won't go again

Besties! Who gets it?! May in Kanas is literally a fairytale world🌳! Fresh green mountains everywhere, sapphire-blue lake waters, and super healing countryside scenery~ Save this complete travel guide ASAP and immerse yourself in the romance of Kanas💕! 📍Must-visit magical spots 🌊Kanas Lake: A blue paradise that captivates at first sight In May, Kanas Lake looks like it has a blue filter applied💙! Walking along the wooden lakeside path🚶‍♀️, the water is so clear you can see fish happily swimming around🐟~ Climb up to the Fish Viewing Platform for a panoramic view - the entire lake looks like a sapphire nestled among mountains, with snow-capped peaks faintly visible in the distance. It's breathtakingly beautiful! If you're lucky, you might even spot the same ripples from the "lake monster" legend - super exciting~ 🌳Hemu Village: A real-life paradise on earth Early morning in Hemu Village is absolutely divine! Smoke slowly rises from the pointed wooden cabins⛺️, morning mist covers the golden meadows, and herds of cattle and sheep graze leisurely🐂🐑. Every casual photo looks desktop wallpaper worthy! Highly recommend renting a horse🐎 for a leisurely ride across the grasslands to feel the freedom of the wind in your hair~ In the evening, gather around a bonfire🔥, sing and dance with friends - the vibes are perfect! 🏞️Baihaba Village: A fairytale town on the border This mountain-surrounded village is incredibly therapeutic! Well-arranged wooden cabins, colorful wildflowers🌸, and warm, hospitable villagers~ Here you can walk along the border line🚶, seeing boundary markers and wire fences intertwined with stunning scenery, like stepping into a painting! You must try the local dairy products🥛 - the rich milk flavor is mind-blowing! 🍜Kanas on your taste buds 🍖Kazakh steamed noodles: Carb-lovers rejoice A large plate of steaming noodles served at the table, with chewy noodles, tender lamb and crisp vegetables🥬, all covered in rich broth - so satisfying with just one bite! The portion is huge, so best shared with friends~ 🥟Baursak: Milky delicious snacks Fluffy, crispy little bread pieces🍞 with a subtle milk aroma! You can eat them plain or pair with jam or milk tea🥤. The rich and delicious texture makes them perfect afternoon snacks! 🍲Milk tea: Warmth in every sip The savory, rich milk tea is a must-try! Topped with milk skin and butter, one sip spreads warmth from your stomach throughout your body~ Having a cup in the cool weather instantly revitalizes you! 🚗Transportation and accommodation guide Recommended route: fly to Urumqi✈️ first, then take a bus or chartered car to Kanas~ Within the scenic area, shuttle buses🚍 are convenient and fast! Accommodation recommendations👇 • If you want to see the morning mist🌫️, stay at a characteristic homestay in Hemu Village - opening your window to the view is super romantic! • If you prefer convenience and liveliness, hotels near the Kanas scenic area entrance are good choices~ Besties! May in Kanas is totally worth the trip🎉! Grab your travel buddy and follow this guide to set off!
