October Tour to Appreciate Autumn in Korla—Luntai Poplar Forest

In the northwest of China, there is a place known as the 'Gate of Heaven'. It boasts magnificent snow-capped mountains, vast grasslands, and abundant natural resources. However, on the edge of this place, there is a magical forest that amazes people—Luntai Poplar Forest. Luntai Poplar Forest is located in Alashankou City, Xinjiang Autonomous Region, and is a prominent representative of the global Poplar forest ecosystem. It integrates the natural landscape of the Tarim River, Poplar landscape, and desert landscape. It is the most concentrated, best preserved, and most representative area of Poplar forests in the world. Poplar is an ancient tree species left over from the third century AD, with a strong vitality, known as a living fossil. October tour to appreciate autumn in southern Xinjiang: Day 1: Urumqi - Train - Korla; Day 2: Korla - Luntai Poplar Forest - Korla; Day 3: Luobu Village - Korla - Urumqi. Luobu Village is a tourist scenic area with diverse scenery, beautiful ecological environment, and rich folk culture. The world's largest primitive Poplar forest grows here, sprouting green buds in spring, covered with green shade in summer, and falling golden in autumn, undoubtedly a picturesque paradise in all four seasons. Poplar trees live for a thousand years without dying, die for a thousand years without falling, and fall for a thousand years without decay. The strong vitality of the Poplar trees and the ancient Luobu folk customs all shock our hearts. Korla City Peacock River: The peacock spreads its tail, green splashes on the Gobi, and the picturesque Jiangnan outside the Great Wall is the Peacock River, which is also a very rare and rare river system without tributaries. Compared with the high-rise buildings in the city, the dense trees on both sides of the river cover the hustle and bustle of the market. The Peacock River flows straight down from the vast Bosten Lake, winding down through the middle of the city, and the beauty of the green mountains and rivers also flows into your heart, making your mood suddenly open. Unrestrained in the world, freely in the snowy peaks of the Tianshan Mountains and the vast Bosten Lake, this is the beautiful Peacock River~
