Looking for Wolf Valley

Text/Figure Lv Xinya Transferred from: Xinjiang Human Geography

From the beginning of life, nature has poured an insurmountable and eternal love into human hearts. When we are in the Wolf Valley in Kaerjiao, Jimunai County, Xinjiang, we will deeply realize that this kind of love is fluid and agile.

The landform of Yelang Gorge is called Ya Dan landform community in geology, and Ya Dan means "steep wall mountain" in Uighur. It is a typical wind erosion landform, which consists of a series of long-strip earth mounds extending intermittently and grooves distributed at intervals. Under the vast sky, strange-shaped hills and cracks show a vast, magnificent and gorgeous scene under the irradiation of sunlight. The mountains and forests in the canyon are green, with strange peaks and rocks, grotesque shapes and both gods and shapes. The landscape is strange and magnificent, which is dizzying. I can't help but revel in the wonder of nature.

The scenery here is different in the morning, at noon and at night. In the morning, the mountain peak is golden in the golden sun, and it is yellow when the sun is shining at noon. In the hot evening, thousands of valleys stand under the sky, showing gorgeous red, floating in the light and shadow like a flowing landscape painting, telling the story of dusk.

The alternation of four seasons also shows the magnificent geological landscape of Yelang Valley. In spring, the snow and ice melt and songbirds sing. Extreme weather strikes, it rains and snows, and the wind blows everywhere, like a wolf howling; In summer, white clouds are blossoming, wild flowers are everywhere, and mirage looms. In autumn, the rift valley flutters and flashes in the morning fog, just like a pure and elegant ink painting; In winter, it is snowy, fresh and pure.

Early summer is the season with the most tourists in Wolf Valley. Walking into the Wolf Valley is like walking into an ancient castle. Hit it off, and you can see the wonders of nature. This is refreshing, imaginative, magnificent and charming natural scenery. I don't know how many tourists and photographers have attracted their attention, making it a treasure trove for tourists visiting Xinjiang.

Every territory of nature is absolutely beautiful. The vicissitudes of Wolf Valley will let us see every mountain and every ravine, because we are eager to gather the beauty and love of nature in the vast time of Wang Yang, and fix them in the eyes of Wolf Valley and the best memory of life.
