In the golden autumn of Xinjiang, encounter the dazzling Populus euphratica and the romance of the vast desert

🍁 Xinjiang, this magical land that occupies one-sixth of China's territory, shows its most splendid side in autumn. Let me take you to appreciate the golden autumn world that I deeply love, and together feel the endless charm of nature. 🌟 Ever since I set foot on the land of Xinjiang, the autumn colors there have captivated me. Friends who have seen Xinjiang through my lens have all been deeply moved, and they have asked me how to capture this enchanting autumn scenery. Xinjiang is truly a paradise for photographers, where every frame is a touching painting. 🚗 Xinjiang is vast, and self-driving travel is certainly free, but it is also quite tiring. Fortunately, I chose a private tour, which allowed me more time and energy to appreciate and record the beauty of this land. 📅 The four-day autumn appreciation itinerary is as follows: Day1️⃣: Depart from Urumqi, pass through Turpan, and finally arrive in Korla. Day2️⃣: Rest in Korla, head to Huyanglin in Huludao, explore Lop Nur (Tata Secret Realm), and stay overnight in Yuli. Day3️⃣: From Yuli to Luntai, delve into the Tarim Populus euphratica forest, and then return to Korla. Day4️⃣: Leave Korla, return to Urumqi, and end the unforgettable autumn appreciation journey. 📸 Recommended photography spots: ✅ Tuyugou Mazha Village: This place is like the filming site of Game of Thrones, with a strong exotic atmosphere, making it an excellent place for photography. ✅ Flame Mountain Thousand Buddha Caves: Located behind the Flame Mountain, the palace is majestic and there are few tourists, making it an ideal place to take Journey to the West themed photos. ✅ Huludao Populus euphratica Forest: The scenery of the Populus euphratica forest on the water is unique, complementing the cruise boats and the desert, and is of great value for photography. ✅ Lop Nur (Tata Secret Realm): The perfect combination of lake, desert, and Populus euphratica provides a wealth of photographic elements. ✅ Taklamakan Desert: China's largest desert, where every casual shot is a blockbuster. ✅ Tarim Populus euphratica Forest: The largest Populus euphratica forest in Xinjiang, it is an excellent place to shoot the scenery of the Populus euphratica forest. 📷 Photography tips: 1️⃣ Dress suggestion: Choose light-colored or bright clothing, so that when taking photos in the Populus euphratica forest and desert, you can better contrast with the background and highlight the subject. 2️⃣ Equipment recommendation: If possible, bring a DSLR camera and a drone, as the aerial photography perspective will give you a whole new visual experience. 3️⃣ Sun protection measures: The ultraviolet rays in Xinjiang are strong, so be sure to do a good job of sun protection to avoid affecting the mood for photography and play. 4️⃣ Photo editing tips: In post-processing, you can try to warm up the tones to better restore the romantic atmosphere of Xinjiang's golden autumn.
