It is reasonable to call the glacier No. 1 here, first of all, it shows that the proportion of glaciers is large, and the ice cubes of the ice and snow world have achieved an alternative style in the cold wind here, which is very popular.

Flame Mountain is basically to take pictures and leave. The reason why I chose to go is because of a feeling of travel west. The online netizens commented correctly. If you don't go, you want to see it. Go there and never go again next time.

Tianshan Stone Forest is also known as Quekwusu Stone Forest, which is named after Quekwusuda in the west section of the Tianshan Mountains and the north foot of Nalati Mountain. It is 9000 meters long and about 5,000 meters wide, and the relative height is 30 meters. Walking 100 kilometers southwest from Bayinbrook grassland, boarding the top of Kokwusuda, looking around the snow peaks, it seems that there is a virgin forest scattered on the hillsides on both sides of a deep valley, and looking closer, it was not pine and cypress, but a pavilion and jade "stone forest". After millions of years of baptism by nature, this sandy rock forest is sculptured in a thousand shapes and strange. Some are like castles, some are like pedestrians and beasts, lifelike; some are like swords and swords, directly inserted into the blue sky, and there are also large caves and small holes, which are full of secluded paths. The stone forest is located in the depths of Tianshan Mountain, and the traffic is inconvenient. It has become a protective circle of natural wildlife.

Beautiful, but the road conditions are a little bit worse, the road is dusty, it is best to find a master in the local area to pack the car, familiar with the road conditions, otherwise it is easy to have accidents, dusty blocking the line of sight. During the day, you must pay attention to sun protection. There is this road to live in Kuitun. The hotel is very sufficient. Don't worry about no place to stay. There is a night market in the city center. Sheep baby barbecue is OK. In the past two years, there have been more people taking the Duku Highway. Many travel agencies on Danxia Highway are unwilling to go. Although I have visited Zhangye Danxia landform, I can still find a different beauty here!

The scenery is good, and the construction management is also very good, including the ropeway and the bus. But the 220 tickets (with traffic, ropeway) are still a bit expensive. We only climbed to the second viewing platform and looked at the third. It was too high, which was equivalent to climbing Huangshan. As a tourist who played in Tianchi on the first day of the trip, it is recommended not to climb to the top, and leave physical strength for the follow-up trip. Finally, I think the stone forest here is better than Kunming.

Yadan landform, or wind erosion ridge, is a typical wind erosion landform. "Yadan" in Uyghur means "small hill bag with steep wall". Due to the abrasion of the wind, the lower part of the hill bag often suffers strong denudation and gradually forms a concave shape. Looking at the ghostly work of nature, I can't sigh my own smallness at the same time, and the endless charm of the desert ~~~

It is best to choose to see it in the evening, because on the deserted mountain top, it is empty and exposed to the sun. On the long wooden plank road, you have to walk about 500 meters along the earth and stone road to the hillside. There are two places surrounded by fences, and one of them has not moved. You can also watch the sunset in the evening. It depends on the individual whether it is fun or worth it. It is not bad if you just pass by and have leisure to see. When the sun set, we went down the mountain, and the night light on the boardwalk was on, and it was quite beautiful.
