The snow-capped mountains of Xinjiang in May/June are even more stunning than Switzerland!

❄️Early summer ice and snow adventure|The snow-capped mountains of Xinjiang in May/June are even more stunning than Switzerland! ✨Still squeezing into Switzerland to see the Alps? The snow-capped mountains of Xinjiang are sinfully beautiful in early summer! 🌲Wildflowers bloom at the foot of the snow-capped mountains, the meadows are covered with oil painting filters, and there are few people and beautiful scenery, so hurry up! Essential spots 🏔️[Kuerdening] Spruce forest × Tianshan Mountains in the same frame 🔥This year's top spot! Hike along the wooden boardwalk for 30 min to encounter a fairy tale forest. A drone taking off will instantly produce a National Geographic blockbuster 🏔️[West Bank of Sayram Lake] Snow-capped mountains and blue lake double strike 💦Snow-capped mountain reflections + S-shaped road, get up early to wait for a 5:30AM orange-flavored sunrise (remember to bring something to prevent frostbite ❗️) 🏔️[Xiate Ancient Trail] Epic hiking route 👣Take a sightseeing car deep into the hinterland, where the glacier is within reach! Encounter cute marmots and enjoy a super healing horse riding experience (remember to bring cash) 📸Exclusive photography tips √ Light-colored fairy dress + windproof thick coat! The snow-capped mountain reflector comes with its own lighting √ Lower the camera's color temperature (below 5500K) to instantly transform into a cold wonderland √ Use a telephoto lens to shoot the S-shaped road, and stand on the top of the slope to capture the oppressive feeling of the snow-capped mountains at the end of the road ⚠️Things special forces need to know ❶ The temperature difference is so great that you'll doubt your life! Lock in a thin down jacket + sun hat ❷ If you don't wear sunglasses, you'll get snow blindness, so apply high SPF sunscreen three times ❸ The signal in the mountainous area is weak, so download the Two Steps track in advance
