Xinjiang Kurdening|This is not the Alps, this is Xinjiang Kurdening, breathtakingly beautiful

"If you know Kurdening, why bother with the Alps" is the slogan on the Kurdening travel brochure❗️With such a confident slogan, how could the scenery disappoint~🌲Forests, snow-capped mountains🏔️, grasslands, log cabins... it has all the elements of a fairy tale world, and everywhere you look is a picture🖼️ 🚘Self-driving route: Visitor Center➡️Zhonggou Ticket Checkpoint➡️Ten Mile Gallery➡️Fengxiang Station➡️Kafeng Base Camp➡️Qimengde Viewing Platform (must visit)➡️Ayousai Viewing Platform➡️Heritage Center Parking Lot➡️After parking (hiking) Tianshan Sleeping Buddha➡️(hiking/sightseeing bus) Spruce King➡️(hiking) Grassland in the Clouds 📸Photo spots: 📍Ayousai Viewing Platform: You can capture the hairpin turns of the mountain road and see the snow-capped Kababay Peak. If you go in mid-June, you can still see a bit of the snow-capped mountain, but by July it should be gone. 📍Qimengde Viewing Platform: To get to Qimengde, you need to climb over 2000 steps, and along the way, there are some log cabins where you can see the same type of log cabin as in "Heidi and Grandpa". 📍Grassland in the Clouds: You can capture the combination of grasslands and snow-capped mountains. ❤ Tips: 1️⃣The entire Kurdening Scenic Area is a one-way road‼️You drive straight without a chance to turn back. So make sure to note the parking spots. 2️⃣When navigating to Qimengde Viewing Platform, there is a "Y"-shaped fork near Kafeng Base Camp, one way leads to Qimengde Viewing Platform, the other to Ayousai Viewing Platform. Important❗️Because it's a one-way road, you must go to Qimengde first, then Ayousai❗️ 3️⃣You must park at the Heritage Center Parking Lot‼️Only after parking can you visit the three spots behind it. Remember to park at the Heritage Center! If you miss it, you'll drive straight to the exit. 4️⃣For self-driving, enter from Zhonggou Ticket Checkpoint and exit from Donggou Ticket Checkpoint. Although there are some unpaved roads, it's easier to drive than the road to Chaxi. ⛩️Navigation: Kurdening Scenic Area Visitor Center 🚌Transportation: It takes 1.5 hours to drive from Gongliu County 🚌Bus: There are 2-3 direct buses from Gongliu County Bus Station daily (about 1 hour) 🎫Tickets: 90/person (including shuttle bus), 60/person (self-driving) 🐴Horse riding🐴, about 80 per person ⏰Visiting hours: 10:00-20:00
