The first snow dream of Koktokay begins

From now until February next year, Koktokay Town in Fuyun County, Xinjiang welcomes the best snow viewing season, inviting you to a pure white dream where the Milky Way falls. Last night, the Siberian wind quietly arrived, the Altai Mountains donned silver armor, ice veils hung from the peak of Shen Zhong Mountain, the Irtysh River turned into a winding jade belt, birch branches held fluffy snow clusters, and when the sunlight fell, the snowfield intertwined like honey and rose gold. At dusk, the snowy plain glowed with faint phosphorescence, like a fairy tale boundary. Here, you can ride a horse-drawn sled through an ink painting scene, listen to Kazakh herders' winter dombra tunes; or wear bear paw snowshoes to venture deep into the wilderness, leaving your unique footprints in the powder snow. The dome of Feilai Peak pours the star river, the starry sky house at Longmen Square brews sea buckthorn tea, blurring the boundary between snowy mountains and the starry sky; inside the yurt, baursak dipped in wild berry jam and red willow grilled meat sizzle, an octogenarian plays "First Snow Ballad," and the stove fire bakes stories and milky fragrance into memory. Windproof down jackets, snow boots, and sunglasses are essential warm winter gear, as the snow reflects strongly and protection is necessary. The call of ice and snow has arrived, come to Koktokay and write a sparkling fairy tale together!
