Compared with the time difference of nearly two hours in Wu Hanyou, Xinjiang, it was still dark when we left the station at 6 o'clock. Among many soliciting drivers, we chose a private car named Wang Gang. After necessary verification and conversation, we got on his car and started the planned one-day tour of Turpan.

From a photographic point of view, our first stop is to shoot the sunrise in the Flame Mountain. Flame Mountain is a scenic spot with the natural landscape of Flame Mountain and the plot of Journey to the West as the main line. When we came, the scenic spot was not open yet, but this did not affect our shooting.

When looking for a shooting location, look inside through the fence of the scenic spot. At the foot of the Flame Mountain, there are many bronze sculptures of figures in the distance of The Journey to the West, especially the story of "borrowing a banana fan for three times". The figures are vivid and lifelike.

According to reports, the Flame Mountain is about 98 kilometers long from east to west and 6- 10 kilometers wide from north to south. Located in the north-central Turpan Basin, with an average elevation of 500 meters and the highest main peak of 85 1 meter.

Because the mountain is red and blue-brown, in summer, the average surface temperature can reach 70 degrees Celsius and the highest can reach 83 degrees Celsius. From a distance, the volcano is steaming and smoky, just like a flame burning. Very spectacular and magnificent.

Although our coming season is not summer, if we carefully observe the grain on the mountain, we can see the burning flame floating in the wind.

Here, the Monkey King's modeling is the most. On the modeling of the gate of the scenic spot, it is the modeling of the Monkey King stepping on Xiangyun and carrying a banana fan on his shoulder to explore the road. I wonder, if the crossbar at the Monkey King's feet is removed, will people really think that the Monkey King is here?

Because the climate here is dry, the moisture content in the air is low, there is no cloud as a foil when the sun rises, and there are distant peaks to block it, so the sun will soon become bright and dazzling.

When the sun rose, we ended our first stop in Xinjiang and set off for the next goal by bus.

On the way from Flame Mountain to Gaochang Ancient Town, the driver pointed to the green plants on both sides of the road and told us that these were wild mulberry trees. When the mulberry trees bear fruit, many tourists will come here to pick them.
