Xinjiang's Colorful Beach, with its fairytale-like Yadan landforms, is said to offer a chance to see a dreamy, colorful landscape at sunset! Located in the Altay region of Xinjiang, near the northern bank of the Irtysh River, the Colorful Beach scenic area may be small in size, but its valleys and hills are staggered in height, with peculiar rocks resembling the feet of giants, making it quite unique! Due to its location in an arid area, the large rocks of the Colorful Beach have been shaped by river erosion and strong winds into many steep mounds and wide, shallow grooves, along with steep cliffs and hills, creating picturesque scenery. In the distance, you can also see rows of wind turbines, making it a great spot for photography. The best time to visit is at sunset, when the colorful clouds and the reflection of the poplar forest on the opposite bank in the water make for perfect photo opportunities. However, there are quite a lot of mosquitoes in the wilderness, so you can't stay for long.

The Colorful Beach Yardang Landform is something I've heard about for a long time, but experiencing it in person is truly astonishing! I knew about wind-eroded landforms, but I never imagined they could be this magnificent. The sunlight bathes the vast land, as if gilding every inch with a golden edge. On both sides of the river, there are stones of various shapes and colors—some are deep red, some golden yellow, and others are a dazzling array of colors. They sparkle charmingly under the sunlight, like nature's treasure trove. In the distance, a surreal mist rises from the dark green forest, and with the Irtysh River as the backdrop, it creates a sense of infinite time and space interweaving, evoking a profound respect for nature in the observer.

Wucai Beach is nestled on the bank of the Irtysh River. On the other side of the river is the lush secondary forest of the river valley. The afterglow of the setting sun paints the Wucai Beach colorful, and the Yadan landform suddenly becomes colorful, which can be regarded as a masterpiece of nature. The unique landscape of Wucai Beach is vividly summarized as "a river separating the two banks, like two different worlds." There are oases and deserts on the south bank, and cliffs on the north bank. The mountains are undulating and the colors are varied. Under the sunlight, the landforms appear even more magical and colorful. #wintergetaway#localtravel
