Sorry, Tacun, for only discovering your beauty after so many visits to Xinjiang

If you want to see the first peak of the Tianshan Mountains, besides taking a plane to fly over the southern and northern Xinjiang, another way is to come to Tacun, known as the first village of southern Xinjiang. Tacun's full name is Taghlaq Village, which is only an hour's drive from Aksu city center. The entire village is located at the foot of Tomur Peak, the main peak of the Tianshan Mountains, and it is one of the rare villages where you can step outside to appreciate the highest peak of the Tianshan Mountains. Tomur Peak has an altitude of 7443 meters, near the border between China and Kyrgyzstan, and the scenery is very beautiful, making it an important tourist highlight of Tacun. Tacun is not far from the Wensu Grand Canyon. If you are short on time, you can spend half a day at each of these two places and return to Aksu city center in the evening. Of course, if you have enough time, it is best to stay in Tacun for one night. The village has characteristic wooden house homestays, where you can see the valley scenery from the window and have the snow-capped mountains and grasslands in full view as soon as you step outside. Watching the sunset glow on the golden mountain in the evening is definitely an unforgettable and beautiful experience. Don't think that this is just a village, but there are quite a few points of interest in Tacun. First of all, there are various internet-famous elements in the village, such as the mini train, windmills, artistic road signs, etc., which are very suitable for young people to take photos and check in. After strolling through the village, you can also go to the nearby Sky Prairie, which is a huge grassland on the mountaintop. Although the boardwalk up is a bit difficult to climb, the magnificent view after reaching the top can relieve all fatigue. Sitting there, facing the snow mountains and canyons, with horses leisurely walking by, you can enjoy the vastness of nature and a free life. The village also has its own large canteen, where the lamb skewers and pilaf are very delicious, especially the pilaf, which is tasty and not greasy. Each person also gets a large piece of lamb, and you can have more rice after finishing, which is very satisfying. The transportation in Tacun is also very convenient. You can take the tourism bus line directly to the Tianshan Tomur Scenic Area from the Aksu Tourist Center, with a ticket price of only 28 yuan. Morning departure times: 10:00, 10:30, 11:00 Afternoon return times: 17:00, 17:30, 18:00
