Xiangfei Garden is an artificial scenic spot located in Kashgar, Xinjiang. The scenic spot has been under construction since 2014. The architectural style is mainly a combination of ethnic characteristics and modern elements. It tells the legendary story of Xiangfei from birth to death, from Kashgar to Beijing, from Princess Xiangxiang to the beloved one. "Happy Xiangfei Garden, a love check-in place" will allow people to have a deep understanding of Xiangfei's love story and experience the folk customs of the Uyghur people in person. It is a good experience.
The architecture of Xiangfei Garden is very nice, with strong ethnic characteristics. Those who like architecture and aesthetics can take a good look at it. The performance time is relatively fixed, so pay attention to the specific time.

Enter from the east gate, watch the opening ceremony, stroll through Gulijia and the Sky Garden. Go to Kantuman Bazaar to experience the iron art culture, and then go to Wulanduo B&B to rest. Visit the Id Kah Mosque and the century-old teahouse in the west city, and enjoy the night view of the ancient city in the evening. Features Kashgar Ancient City has a unique Uyghur architectural style and rich intangible cultural heritage such as ironware making and bronzeware craftsmanship. The colorful Rainbow Alley and the artistic Oil Painting Street are both special check-in spots
Kashgar, a place where even naan can dance. The sunshine here is as warm as a steamed bun oven, and people are sweating profusely under the sun. The air in the alleys is filled with the smell of cumin, as if the whole city is grilling kebabs. The shouts of vendors in the bazaar are louder than donkeys, and tourists shuttle through the crowd like lost camels. The most amazing thing is that the clock here is always two hours slower than Beijing time - it's not the time difference, but the pace of life. Remember, in Kashgar, those who are in a hurry will miss the sweetest melons and the most fragrant smiles.

Muztagh Ata Glacier Park is located on the Pamir Plateau in Taxkorgan County, Xinjiang, close to the Muztagh Ata Peak, the "Father of Icebergs". The glaciers here are majestic, the ice towers stand in rows, the ice lake is as green as jade, and the four-layer ice lake and ice cave are shocking. You can touch the billion-year-old glaciers up close, overlook the reflection of the snow-capped mountains, and watch rare wild animals such as snow leopards. The sad story of the fairy melting ice adds to the mystery. Travel tips: Take a bus from Kashgar to the scenic area, take the shuttle bus to the foot of the glacier, and choose to ride a horse or hike to the viewing platform.
It's a very shocking feeling. The hiking time is only about 30 minutes. I was a little uncomfortable at the beginning, but I walked slowly step by step. If you are worried, you can bring a bottle of oxygen. You can see typical glaciers, alpine deserts, and glacial lakes.

Baisha Lake in southern Xinjiang is like a plateau wonderland, with the blue lake and Baisha Mountain complementing each other, the snow-capped mountains reflecting like a painting, and the lake water as clear as a mirror. Baisha Lake is located in Taxkorgan County, Kashgar, Xinjiang, next to National Highway 314, at an altitude of 3,300 meters, about 200 kilometers away from Kashgar, and is a must-go place to Tashkurgan County and Khunjerab Pass.
① Self-driving or chartering from Kashgar, about 6 hours to arrive; ② Border defense permits must be obtained in advance; ③ Observation Deck 2 has a better view, or take a detour to Muji Fork Road to avoid the crowds
Baishashan Lake Scenic Area is on the only way from Kashgar to Taxkorgan.
After purchasing the ticket, enter the parking area. There is an underground passage connecting the lakeside viewing platform. There are camels on the shore where you can ride and take photos.
Covered by snow-capped mountains and lakes, the scenery is stunning.
Especially for tourists from the east, they have never seen this scene before.

Karakul Lake is like a sapphire on the Pamir Plateau, lying quietly at the foot of Muztagh Ata. The lake changes color with the light and shadow. When it is sunny, the lake is as blue as a mirror, and when it is cloudy, it is dark and deep. Legend has it that water monsters appear, adding to the mystery. Strolling on the plank road by the lake, the reflection of the snow-capped mountains is picturesque, and there are herds of cattle and sheep on the grassland. Camping and stargazing are extremely romantic. The scenic area is well managed, parking is free, and the ticket price is only 45 yuan. It is very cost-effective and is a must-visit wonderland for self-driving in southern Xinjiang!
The three peaks of the Kunlun Mountains, Muztagh Ata, Kongur Peak, and Kongur Jiubie Peak, surround Karakul Lake. They are really amazing. For an in-depth tour, you can consider staying at Muyun Camp for two nights. Whether it is the morning sun shining on the golden mountain, the morning clear lake imprinting snow, the afternoon sunset on Muyun Peak, or the night and early morning Milky Way starry sky, it is worth staying for one night. Let you experience that the world is worth it. Stepping onto the Pamir Plateau, I saw the reflection of heaven on the mirror surface of **Karakul Lake**! This "black lake" is not in vain. The lake is as deep as black jade, but it can embrace the towering snow cap of **Muztagh Ata Peak**, the nine-blade cold front of **Kongur Jiubie Peak**, and the flowing clouds and sky. **The beauty of the world discovered during the journey is often in the great silence of heaven and earth-** In the early morning or at dusk, press the shutter when there is no wind by the lake, and you will get not only a photo, but also the peerless elegance of the solidified "Father of Iceberg" and "Jiubie Fairy" dancing together.

The scenery here is very beautiful, especially the homestay inside the north gate, called the Sun Never Sets. Many people don’t know that it is a treasure homestay. You can enjoy the scenery while lying in the room.
Xinjiang Panlong Ancient Road is now a super and dazzling Internet celebrity road. It is a road connecting Xinjiang Taxkorgan County to Waqia Township. Its official name is Waqia Highway. Panlong Ancient Road is like a huge dragon, hovering on the Pamir Plateau at an altitude of about 4,219 meters. The dark asphalt road is perfectly integrated with the surrounding mountains, and with the continuous snow-capped mountains in the distance, such a grand spectacle belongs only to the Pamirs. I took a photo when I came down the mountain from Panlong Ancient Road, wishing that I had gone through all the detours today, and my life would be smooth from now on.

This is the border I crossed with Pakistan. It is very spectacular on the Pamir Plateau at an altitude of 5,100 meters. The Pakistanis on the other side were also very enthusiastic and kept shouting at us. Haha
It is convenient to buy, and you don't have to queue up to buy tickets on site. However, there was no electricity on that day, and the ticket verification required the order QR code, and the ID card alone could not be used.
There were many people, and you needed to queue up to take the bus. Anyway, you queued for an hour and clocked in for ten minutes.
The scenery along the way is unique. In your life, you must go to Tashi County once, and you must go to Khunjerab and Wakhan Corridor for a day.

We arrived at Zepujin Populus euphratica National Forest Park at 10:30 am. Although we arrived a little late (the staff said that the best view is at the end of October), it is still very beautiful. Any photo can be used as wallpaper. After entering the park, we took the scenic shuttle bus. There are five stops. The natural scenery at the first stop is the most beautiful, which is similar to the imagined poplar forest. The following stops also have their own characteristics. We stayed in the park for nearly three hours.
If you are not in a hurry, you can walk through the entire scenic area in about 2-3 hours and 10 km. If you don't want to walk, just take the sightseeing bus, which is also cost-effective. It is a scenic spot that I will recommend to my friends in the future. It takes an hour and a half to drive from Shache.

I hired a tour guide, otherwise I wouldn't understand it. The tour guide charged a very low fee, but he was very dedicated and explained the traditional history of these ethnic minorities clearly. Thumbs up!
The Amanisa Khan Memorial Mausoleum and the Yarkand Khanate Mausoleum are together.
The Amanisa Khan Memorial Mausoleum was built to commemorate the Uyghur poetess and Muqam scholar Amanisa Khan, and displays the names of the twelve sets of Muqam and her poems.
The Yarkand Khanate Mausoleum was built in the 12th year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty (1533). It is the mausoleum of the Yarkand Khanate, where many Khans and their family members such as Suritang Sayyid Khan were buried. The mausoleum architecture combines Islamic style, glazed brick decoration and plaster pattern.
Through the visit, people can get a closer understanding of Xinjiang's history and culture.

Panlong Ancient Road is a road completed in Xinjiang in 2019. After opening, it immediately attracted widespread attention. It is connected to the 314 National Road, and there are more than 600 S-curves in a total length of about 75 kilometers, and the altitude has risen from 3,000 meters to 4,216 meters. It is a long-standing transportation line, an important transportation hub connecting ancient Central Asia and China. The magic, wonder, mystery, spectacular and exciting 600 S-bends of this road are more embodiment of the wisdom and hard work of designers and pavers.
The phrase "the most beautiful scenery on the road" can be most fully experienced in the Pamir Plateau, from Kashgar to Ta County, the scenery is infinite, amazing, the Pamir Plateau stands, the arid climate makes everything here full of luxury, many times we stopped the car to enjoy the shooting. Panlong Ancient Road has more than 600 curves, at an altitude of 4,200 meters cliff edge, like a dragon hovering in the Pamir plateau, after walking these curves, I believe that "Today has passed all the curves, and life is a smooth road".
