Northern Xinjiang. All kinds-from Karajun to Nalati

On the 9th, I have to leave Karajun. The owner of Tex Hotel told us that if we go to Karajun, we don't have to go to Nalati. However, since we are going to Bayinbuluke, xinyuan county and Nalati are the only roads, Xinjiang will have to summon up courage after all, and it will be difficult to come back for a long time. After all, I don't want to pass by, so I plan to go to Nalati around 18:00 in the afternoon and take a look and leave.

Karajun's two main parking spots, one is the flower terrace and the other is the falcon terrace, not the loop line, but the retreat. The last aerial photography was carried out early in the morning. After a simple breakfast, Posen sent us out of the animal husbandry area and told us that the bus would stop to get on the bus along the way, but if the bus was full, the driver would not stop.

Friends who want to travel here must remind that Karajun is not a bustling tourist destination. There are fewer tours, more go on road trip, and far fewer tourists than other scenic spots. Therefore, the car ferry does not leave when it arrives, but after dispatching and coordination, the personnel are fully equipped before leaving. To this end, many friends who planned to visit the Grand Canyon on the same day and then rushed to Nalati waited in vain, and we were only told that the bus returning to the visitor center arrived at the terminal Falcon Station and directly returned to the Flower Station, which was delayed for nearly two hours.

Arriving at the tourist center is near 1 1:00. From Karajun to Nalati, you must turn back to Tekes, then take the provincial road S220 from Tekes to the north, change to the provincial road S3 10 in Buick Township, Aktug, pass through Gong Liu County, and then drive to the national road 2 18 to reach Nalati Scenic Area.

It is more than 400 kilometers to Nalati, but it is difficult to walk. In the first half, I took the wrong road in Tex for more than an hour because of unclear road construction and no navigation signal. Finally embarked on the road of S220, potholes were repeatedly repaired, and the road narrowed. After driving S3 10, the road is straight, but the speed limit is 80, 60 or even 20. Here, friends who drive by car are advised not to transfer to S3 10. After arriving in Gebek Township, Aktug, continue to drive north for about 30 kilometers, and then drive west after reaching the national highway G2 18. Although the speed limit should be more relaxed to avoid wasting too much time.

In this way, we stumbled all the way and finally arrived at the east gate of Nalati scenic spot at 19:30 in the afternoon (the navigation deceived us). Then ..... Dongmen said that our office was closed, and we had to go through the west gate to enter the meeting place, which closed late. As a result, we can imagine that we were no longer received when we rushed back to the West Gate for more than 20 kilometers, so we had to find a nearby inn to stay for dinner and go to the scenic spot the next morning.

Nalati scenic spot is divided into east and west gates, which are more than 20 kilometers apart. Unlike other scenic spots, it is open until 9 o'clock. It closes at 20 o'clock. If you navigate Nalati scenic spot, you will not only walk from west to east, but also be easily blocked at the door. It's best to search the Nalati tourist center for navigation, and this is the main entrance, which can be received before 20:00.

This is the most painful day since I came to Xinjiang to travel. I drove all day, missed it because I was ten minutes late, and wasted one more day in Nalati. To sum up, Karajun's shuttle bus needs to communicate with the tour guide; Tex Bagua City should choose the right "Kanjie" (don't rely on navigation that is disconnected at any time); S220 Don't turn to S3 10, go straight to G2 18 and turn again; Nalati search location must search the visitor center to navigate. Only by paying attention to the above four points can we arrive on time and enter the scenic spot smoothly, so as not to return in vain like us.

This is the first 10 day of the trip. Because of the delay of the previous day, the day saved in Sailimu Lake no longer exists, and the trip has returned to the original plan. Today, I plan to visit Nalati scenic spot in the morning and start to catch Bayinbuluke at noon. This article will briefly talk about Nalati first, and then talk about Bayinbuluke in another article.

There are two major ways to play after Nalati enters the arena. One is by car ferry; The second is self-driving. Car ferry can take three routes: air grassland, Forest Park and Panshan Ancient Road. It is said that the fourth Kazakh-style air route will be opened soon. There are restricted routes to drive, but you can't go anywhere else.

If you choose to drive by car, everyone will be charged the entrance fee according to 300 yuan. If you choose a car ferry, the price of each line is different. After the tour, you must go back to the tourist center and take a bus to other places again, which is very similar to the organizational structure of Kanas tourist center station. It can be seen from this that Nalati is located on the big passage after all. Unlike Karajun, which is located in a more remote place, the tourism quality and service details are more perfect, there are many tourists, the departure time is timely, and the waiting time is naturally shorter.

We had a good tour experience in Karajun, so we only chose one route in air grassland this time. There are two stops before the end of this line, namely the observation deck and two places similar to the flower sea. My daughter-in-law is happy to take pictures along the way, but I prefer the original ecology of Kara Army. Although Nalati scenic spot also has its own characteristics and vividness, there is a lot less game, so I don't buy it. At the end of the trip, an extra car continued to go deep into the foot of the snow-capped mountain shaped like snow lotus, because it was getting late and we didn't go any further.

The beautiful scenery we really expect is waiting for us in Gongnaisi Forest Farm and Bayinbuluke below. We arrived at the gate of the scenic spot before 12:00, and continued to set off eastward with food and drinks prepared in advance.
