When is the best time to travel to Xinjiang?

In Xinjiang in March, some places are still covered with snow. At this time, the ice layer of Tianchi has not frozen. You can play roller skates and drive snowmobiles on it, which is still very cool. The grapes in Turpan are not as hot as the summer legend except the grape valley. Other scenic spots, such as Jiaohe Ancient Town, Gaochang Ancient Town, Karejing, Sugong Tower, etc. You can take advantage of this cool weather to have a good look, if you are an archaeological enthusiast.

Next is April, April in Xinjiang, and the spring is getting stronger. The ice in Tianchi is almost melting, but you have to wait more than two months to eat the grapes in Turpan. The Yili grassland, which has been silent for a winter, has slowly recovered its vitality, but it will take another month to see the lush grassland. What about Kanas? Hehe, that will have to wait. It's too long in winter there, and you can't go up until the end of April and the beginning of May. It is a good choice to go to Kashgar at this time. Mosque, Princess Tomb and Lake Karakuli under the "Father of Icebergs" should be very suitable in this season. The most important thing is that tickets to Kashgar are very cheap at this time, and the price can be comparable to that of trains. So friends who are interested in Kashgar can consider it.

Xinjiang in May,

This is the real spring. However, the previous "May 1 Golden Week" actually had little significance to Xinjiang. Xinjiang has never been overcrowded during the May Day Golden Week. Because the grapes in Turpan are not ripe at this time, the water in Kanas is not beautiful enough, and the grass in Yili grassland is not green enough. The advantage of coming to Xinjiang at this time is that the price is more affordable. Hotels and transportation are off-season prices.

There is already a lot to see in Xinjiang in June. Not to mention Tianchi and Turpan. The most beautiful is the Ili grassland. The eyeful of green and wild flowers makes people feel hope and imagination rise from the bottom of their hearts. Sailimu Lake in mid-June is even more beautiful: the blue lake reflects the yellow flowers all over the mountain, and the snow-capped mountains in the distance seem within reach, which is a harmonious and beautiful natural collocation.

July, August and September are the "traditional" tourist seasons in Xinjiang. At this time, the weather is already very hot. When crossing the coastline or climbing mountains in summer, the sun is quite strong, so you must pay attention to sun protection. Melons and fruits are fragrant everywhere, including grapes, cantaloupes and all kinds of fruits. The scenic spots finally seem crowded. At this time, traveling to Xinjiang will cost more, because it is the peak season price, and of course it is worth the money. The only thing to note is that it is best to book your trip in advance, so that you won't have money and no room to live at this time.

At the end of September, Xinjiang's tourism will also come to an end, but at this time, there is a place that people are eager for, and that is Kanas! The fairy tale world in autumn will visit this magical border on time at this time of the year. If you have been longing for this place for a long time, if you are a photographer, hurry up, because her visit time is too short, only 20 days. 10-1 10. Kanas closed the mountain on October 7! Kanas closes the mountain, and Xinjiang tourism should be closed. But it is a good choice to visit Populus euphratica in southern Xinjiang at this time.

At the beginning of October, the golden-yellow Populus euphratica is particularly eye-catching in the desert and has a unique flavor.

By the end of 10, there will be few tourists.

Then in1February, the ice and snow customs in Xinjiang began again. Can you ski? Come on! It's good to feel exciting skiing in the warm sunshine in winter.
