Spend the summer in Xinjiang and visit the Ili Lavender Garden

The lavender-covered hills during the peak bloom period are as beautiful as being in a fairy tale world, surrounded by a sea of purple. The language of lavender flowers includes waiting for love 💑 and mutual understanding. It symbolizes romance and a happy and beautiful marriage. The meanings of lavender flowers in different colors vary: purple represents hopeless love, blue represents mutual understanding, and pink represents first love. 💐 📍 Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Ili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture, Huocheng County, Lucao Town, Sigong Village Group 1 · Princess Jieyou Lavender Farm 🚗 Transportation: It is more convenient to drive or rent a car 🎫 Tickets: 35 yuan/person 🚘 Sightseeing car: 20 yuan/person (round trip) 🕰 Opening hours: 9:00~22:00 💐 Flowering period: First season: mid to late June, harvested at the end of June Second season: July to mid-August, harvested at the end of August 💐 The farm's lavender is planted along the hillside, creating a feeling of the rolling hills of Provence in photos.

Summer is a good time to come to Xinjiang to escape the heat and cool off. 💐 Remember❗️ Remember❗️ Remember❗️ There are two lavender gardens here, one called Princess Jieyou Lavender Manor and the other called Jieyou Lavender Farm. We went to the farm, not the manor. The manor covers about 500 acres, while the farm covers about 3,000 acres, which is about 6 times larger.
