Enjoy the Silk Road Mountain Ski Resort, an ultimate ice and snow experience!
From the moment I stepped into the Silk Road Mountain Ski Resort in Urumqi, Xinjiang, I was deeply shocked! The snow-covered mountains, under the sunlight, looked like a shining silver world, dazzling yet so beautiful that I couldn't take my eyes off it.
When my feet touched the snow, the coldness instantly shot up from the soles of my feet, as if the snow could penetrate the soles of my shoes and reach my heart. But this coldness made me feel the reality and purity of the ice and snow world even more clearly.
Make sure you have all the necessary equipment, choose the right skis and boots for yourself, and don't forget helmets, wrist guards, and other protective gear, as they are the foundation for safe and enjoyable play.
Once inside, beginners can head straight to the beginner slopes, where the slopes are gentler and the snow is softer, perfect for getting a feel for skiing and practicing basic braking and turning techniques. Once you get the hang of it, bravely challenge the intermediate slopes and feel the collision of speed and passion, with the wind whistling in your ears and snowflakes constantly hitting your face, the thrill is indescribable.
If you're already a skiing expert, the advanced slopes are definitely your stage, with super long slopes and large drops, racing down from the top like "flying" on the snow, fully releasing your energy.
When you're tired of skiing, don't miss the snowmobile project, ride it on the snow, speeding through the mountains and forests, and experience a different kind of ice and snow fun.
At noon, the food area of the ski resort offers a variety of specialty foods, a bowl of steaming Xinjiang soup, and eating baked naan can instantly dispel the cold and replenish energy for the afternoon's play.
In short, the Silk Road Mountain Ski Resort is a happy place for ice and snow, with its cool snow and exciting projects that make people linger. As long as you do your homework and play with your heart, you will definitely have a super shocking and unforgettable ice and snow time here. I believe that once you come, you will be like me, and never forget it!

I traveled to Xinjiang last winter and went to the Xinjiang Silk Road Ski Resort. It is said that this is the most beautiful ski resort in China. It takes about half an hour to drive from Urumqi.
Silk Road International Ski Resort is located in the Tianshan Mountains, 38 km south of Urumqi, National Forest Park, Nanshan Shuixigou Town, Pingxi Liangjing District, with convenient transportation. The
Silk Road Ski Resort is the best ski resort in Xinjiang and must go in winter. The eco-hotel here is a highlight. Tropical plants grow indoors and dine here, like being in tropical forests, even in winter. Unlike other ski resorts, it is open all year round, so even if you don't come here to ski, you can feel the eco-hotel, which is a great place to take a walk.
The ski resort here is between 1800m and 2500m above sea level. It is not suitable for skiing high skiers. It attracts countless skiers from all over the country and at home and abroad every year. It is very exciting for me. It is too difficult for people to look up.
