Planning to go to Xinjiang from May to July, to Yili and Altay

When you come to Xinjiang for the first time, it is recommended to go to northern Xinjiang first, where you can feel the great rivers and mountains of the motherland                  —— 🌟What month is right in Xinjiang In the case of Northern Xinjiang, the annual popular tourist season typically starts in May and ends in February of the following year In May-August, you can go to Ili Kasailimu Lake and major grasslands In September-November, you can go to Kanas to see the autumn From December to February of the following year, you can go to Altay to enjoy the scenery                  —— 🌟How to play Ili in May-August 1. About transportation: Many people who come to Xinjiang choose to land in Urumqi, but 90% of people don’t know that it would actually be more comfortable to land in Yining. Because of the grasslands of Ili, the essence is basically around Yining. Landing in Yining can still go straight to Sailimu Lake. Compared to landing in Urumqi, you can travel less than 700 kilometers or so, so that your trip has more time to play. If there is really no flight to Yining, then you can fly to Urumqi and take the 5-hour high-speed train to Yining.                  —— 🌟Itinerary arrangement Every attraction in Ili is well worth visiting, but arranging a maximum of 1-2 a day, if not too many, is both unplayable and bad. Among them, Sailim Lake, Shata, Chasi, Kurdening, Nalati, Jungkush Terrace, Hocheng Lavender, etc., can be traded according to their travel time.                  —— 🌟Sailimu Lake must go, always the last tear of the Atlantic Ocean, if you do not go will regret. Several other grasslands, which can be decided according to your route and travel time, most start to turn green in May, only need to choose about two, otherwise you will appear aesthetic fatigue after seeing too much.                  ——
