The pilaf is made with quality rice stewed with carrots and lamb, giving off a delicious aroma. Other Xinjiang classics include naan with meat and "Big Plate Chicken." The cold-water fish from the lake is also a must-try delicacy, with tender meat that can be steamed or braised. ❣️ There are various accommodation options in and around the scenic area.
