What's so special about the Ellison Ula Desert, the most special desert in Xinjiang?

The clouds and snow on the Tianshan Mountains don't bloom all year round, and the top of the mountain is the top of Wanling Mountain. Speaking of Xinjiang, I believe many people, like Bian Xiao, know a little about it. Tianshan Mountain is full of mystery and unpredictability, only knowing that the girls there can sing and dance well, there are countless foods, colorful national costumes and various customs, which makes people feel novel.

For a foodie, coming to Xinjiang is undoubtedly going straight to the food street, but as a photographer, in addition to tasting the food in Xinjiang, there is another place that must not be missed, that is Tianshan Mountain. As the birthplace of life in Xinjiang, the existence of Tianshan Mountain has injected a bit of romance into this originally desert frontier. Especially in winter, Wan Li is frozen, Tianshan Mountain is covered with snow, and it is beautiful with silver makeup and jade ornaments.

However, what Bian Xiao wants to introduce today is not the beautiful Tianshan Mountains, but the most special desert in Xinjiang, which is located at the southern foot of Tianshan Mountains in Xinjiang and adjacent to the largest inland lake in China. Do you know where it is? Everyone is familiar with the largest inland lake in China, which is Bosten Lake in Xinjiang. What does it mean in Uyghur? Oasis? For Xinjiang, it is well deserved.

If you didn't see it with your own eyes, it's hard to imagine that on the west side of Bosten Lake, it turned out to be an endless desert. This desert is called Ellison Ula Desert and is surrounded by Provincial Highway 206. The originally desolate desert has become lively because of the arrival of Bosten Lake, and many tourists come here. While visiting Bosten Lake, they will also visit this desert that can't be ignored.

As Ellison Ula Desert is not the main destination for tourists, it seems a bit lonely in winter, leaving only footprints in twos and threes and the original lines of the desert, retaining the most primitive ecological beauty, which is undoubtedly true for Ellison Ula Desert. There is always a silver lining behind the dark clouds? This desert has not been developed, and many locals don't know its name, but even so, this purest beauty has touched many tourists who have stumbled into it by mistake.

Occasionally, some dead branches grow freely in the desert. With a little light, they grow to their heart's content and show the most savage vitality. As the sun sets, the whole desert is rendered with tragic colors, which reminds people of the poems of the poet Wang Wei. The desert is lonely and straight, and the long river sets the yen? There's nothing better. I don't know if you have been to Xinjiang, what kind of novel experience do you have? Welcome to leave a comment.
