Xinjiang Travel: My Altay.

This time, I found a very successful travel partner, a reliable young couple. They are super nice and humorous, and they also provide emotional value. The key is that they have found a team leader for the chartered car, who was introduced by a local friend in Xinjiang. He is very reliable. This team leader is also a super nice person. He is very tired from driving, but he still plays with us and takes pictures for us. He also buys us drinks. We are embarrassed. Next time, we will find him again. Haha, we have a great time together. The five of us talk and laugh, and time flies by~ 9.15 Landing in Urumqi, I will write a separate article later. 9.17 Departure, today is mainly for driving. Passing by Ulungur Lake, we got off the car and took a look, but didn't go to Kanas Lake, which is said to be average. We didn't go to Five-Colored Beach either, which is said to be not as good as the Seven-Colored Danxia. We went straight to the most beautiful one~ In the evening, we stayed in Burqin, strolled around the market in the town, bought some things, and checked in for food. The fairy tale town at night is a good place to see the night view~ 9.18 Set off to Kanas, the scenery on the road is beautiful, wow all the way, the scenery in the scenic area is even more beautiful. First, we had lunch at the transfer center, then took a shuttle bus to Kanas Lake, walked in and took pictures, you can take pictures of the snow-capped mountains! It's just that the trees here are mostly green. Then take the shuttle bus back to the visitor center, transfer to Shenxian Bay, here we just went down for a walk, no in-depth tour, continue to take the car to Moon Bay, I think Moon Bay is the most beautiful of the three bays, start hiking from Moon Bay to Wolong Bay, the scenery along the way is too beautiful, walk and stop for about two hours, not many photos taken, mainly enjoying the scenery. The observation deck said that it was frosted and would not be open for reservation until after 2:00 pm. No appointment! However, the people who went up said that it was just a higher point of view and there was nothing special. Fortunately, I didn't go. Our physical strength can only choose one between climbing the observation deck and hiking the three bays. Hiking is worth going~ In the evening, we stayed in Jiadengyu, Kanas is expensive to 3456 thousand, and there are no good hotels available~ Especially the fast boat hotel in Jiadengyu, I saw that many sisters recommended it, it is really good, the hotel environment is good and there is floor heating, recommended. In fact, if you don't look at the Kanas morning mist, you can live in Jiadengyu. 9.19 Go to Hemu, stay in the independent wooden house of Yun Duan Manju, it is really good, the scenery outside the window is great, there are free fruits and drinks, the environment is good, and there is a sense of atmosphere. You can sit at the door for an afternoon~ Unfortunately, the time is too short, and I didn't stay in the wooden house for a long time. After check-in, take the shuttle bus to Yunxiao Peak, a scenic spot highly recommended by the team leader. Sure enough, the 188 cable car is worth it! The snow mountain is so beautiful! It is a ski resort in winter, and you can also see the four borders here. After the end, go back to Hemu Village and take pictures. The team leader flew a drone for us, and accidentally crashed it. It hurts~ Get up early the next day to see the morning mist. The wooden house is not far away. It takes half an hour to climb the mountain on an empty stomach. The observation deck is there. Unfortunately, the weather was too good that day and I didn't see any morning mist, but it was worth the trip~ Hemu and Kanas are different feelings, I think they are both fun, the scenery is very unreal, like a painting, the more you look at it, the more fascinated you are, you can't take pictures of it.
