Staying in a small cabin in Hemu, I encountered the dream cabin

Finally made a trip to Altay in winter, and on a snowy day, I checked into the dream cabin. One cat, two dogs, a courtyard, several small cabins—this is the ideal travel life. There are many homestays in Hemu, mostly small cabins. Considering room design and location, I finally chose "KHAYA" in the old village. There are 6 small cabins here, 2 little dogs, and 1 orange cat. As soon as you enter, you feel the warmth. The rooms are not big, but full of design sense, and it feels very cozy to nestle inside. It started snowing lightly the night I arrived, so I quickly put on a sweater over my pajamas and went to play in the snow under the streetlamp at the door. The next morning, the courtyard was already covered with thick snow. We shoveled snow, played in the snow, and watched the snow with Xiaobai, Pidan, and Yuanbao—it was truly wonderful. Breakfast in the cabin, simple meals and coffee were enough. Looking out the window at the snowy scene, herders riding horses passed by, like a framed painting. No wonder they say the world is a huge Xinjiang; Norway and Switzerland are nothing compared to it. Don’t miss the blue hour in the early morning and evening; you can take atmospheric photos right in the courtyard.
