Harmony, the full name of Harmony Kanas Township, is located in Burqin County, northern Xinjiang, east of Kanas Lake, bordering Mongolia, Russia and Kazakhstan. From Urumqi to Brzin, the coach walked all night. The next day, just as the sun shone into the car, Brzin had arrived.

Brzin is a very neat border town, just one step away from the affluent realm of "every household, every household blossoms". The Irtysh River flows slowly, and there are patches of birch forests and sunflowers on the shore, mixed with the local white felt houses, and the scenery is pleasant. Get off the bus and get a breath of fresh air, and my heart is completely new.

On the way to Harmony, the scenery is very charming. Cars sometimes hover on the hillside and sometimes bypass the valley. Outside the window, it is a large meadow, and sometimes it is surrounded by towering Woods. The slender wildflowers under the trees seem to poke their heads out of the window to meet us. Only when you arrive in Xinjiang can you feel the vast territory of China. Surrounded by infinity, the road is thrown into the distance like a white ribbon, and the endless flatness around it highlights its bending and elegance. We gallop on this ribbon. Plants with shallow sides are all dyed, which are generally well-defined and bright. Pale Achnatherum splendens, pink willows, green weeds, blue sky, white clouds and golden sunshine ... I have never seen so many colors competing in nature at once, and it looks spectacular at present.

One turned around, and before he could react, his eyes suddenly opened up, just like walking out of the tunnel and seeing the outside world. The golden color of the mountain stung everyone's eyes; At the foot are colorful flowers and plants, and the colors are richer than the palette; In the distance is a towering and beautiful mountain peak, surrounded by thick white fog, slowly wandering, revealing the peak from time to time, even covered with snow, shining; There are some fairy-tale cabins scattered at the foot of the mountain, with fences and cattle and sheep, like European pastures. A transparent river meanders through, the river is clear and jubilant, and the snow under the snowy mountain has a refreshing feeling ... everything is so ethereal, transparent as in a vacuum, and beautiful as a fairyland. Here, there is no earthly noise, here, people's hearts have been baptized! Looking at it makes people want to cry, and the beauty makes people feel shallow and painful. This is harmony, the agate deep in Altai Mountain.

Harmony village is located in a big river valley blocked by mountains. The river flows through one side of the valley. The valley is surrounded by high mountains and dense forests, and the bottom of the valley is a grassland. There are many cabins scattered on the grassland, most of which are buried in the soil to resist the cold during the closing period of heavy snow in the past six months. They are particularly primitive and simple, and have the traditional characteristics of nomadic people. Generally, the roof is nailed with wooden eaves, and the room is made of single-layer logs with a diameter of 30-40 cm, which is both warm and moisture-proof. Outside the house is a barn with strong local and ethnic colors. Cabins and herds, together with snow peaks, forests, grasslands, blue sky and white clouds, constitute a unique natural and human landscape.

In the evening, we came to Harmony Village. The sunset melted the gold, and the clouds in the twilight merged together, reflecting the small village exquisitely. Cabins are arranged in rows in a standardized way, separated by fences, and the yard echoes with the croons of cattle; There is a big wild dog wandering in front of every house, watching passers-by warily; From time to time, there are burly Kazakh boys riding behind them, splashing mud; A woman with a high nose, blue eyes and a headscarf is doing everything silently in the hospital. Walking in a small village is like going to a pasture in the middle ages in the west, with a strong exotic flavor.

Walking out of the village, there is a grassland in front, which is divided into two layers along the river. The valley is so quiet that few people can be seen. There are all kinds of small flowers on the grassland, and occasionally a hut and a solitary tree can be seen on the open grassland. Clouds hover over the valley, sometimes the sun shines on the valley, and sometimes the clouds stumble. Walking towards the river, through a bush full of bright red wild strawberries, into a birch forest. The gurgling Harmony River flows through the forest to Kanas Lake. The river is swift and clear, blue and green, and there are broken trees on the river. Walking along the river, walking through the birch forest, watching the clouds floating in the sky, listening to the wind whistling in the forest, I feel a kind of lazy time. I don't know which year, the troubles and fame in the world seem to have been filtered by mountains and layers of forests, and I have been staying outside this valley. My impetuous heart has been washed away by the river. I don't know what it is.

At dusk, under the afterglow of the setting sun, the smoke curled up, and wooden houses and Kazakh yurts were scattered along the Harmony River. Cattle, sheep and horses go home by themselves or accompanied by their owners. At this time, tourists have reached their destination by various means, either by car, by bike or on foot. After a shouting bargain, peace was restored in harmony.

When I woke up the next morning, I found that the sun had shone into the room through the thin curtains. I got up and opened the curtains, and the grass outside was covered with morning light. The smoke from wooden houses in the valley, the hiss of cows and the barking of chickens and dogs from time to time in the valley make people feel more peaceful and full of vitality. Harmony in the morning, no noisy crowds, no traffic, only peace and serenity.

The main attraction of harmony is the scenery of the whole country, which is an indescribable beauty. Harmony River originated in Kanas. On sunny days, the water is very clear blue. Harmony Bridge is an all-wood bridge with local characteristics. It is paved with wide or narrow strips of wood, and some places are damaged. Standing on it, you can easily see the river flowing under the bridge through a big or small gap. The most beautiful time here should be the moment when the sunset is plated with golden light here. Crossing the Harmony Bridge, there is a large birch forest on the other side of the river. When the sun sets, you can see that the leaves of birch trees reflect the sunlight neatly. After crossing the river, you need to cross a shallow stream upstream along the river, where the birch forest becomes a pine forest. There's only one lone horse's hoof with clear marks. I don't know when to leave. This is also my favorite place in Harmony. Walking on the road, everything in the world seems to be abandoned, leaving only myself.

There is a place where the scenery is on the road; There is a kind of travel, and the scenery is in my heart. The harmonious sky, light and clouds are wandering together, which makes people feel trance! From the moment we left harmony, there was no regret in our hearts.
