Who knows the characteristics of Turpan?

Turpan is a this beautiful city in Xinjiang, China, and a beautiful pearl on the Silk Road. Turpan is located at the southern foot of Bogda Mountain in the east of Tianshan Mountain, in the center of Turpan Basin, and the urban area is 0/84 km away from Urumqi/KLOC.

There are museums in the city, as well as the most complete preserved giant lizard fossils in Xinjiang. There are Gaochang Park, water park and folk resorts under construction in the city, which can be described as an ancient folk city.

Of course, I have to say it's Turpan grapes. The grapes here are famous at home and abroad and enjoy a high reputation! The grapes will be ripe at the end of April, and in August, there will be a lot of grapes, which are sold all over the street. You can enjoy singing and dancing in the grape valley while eating grapes! The grapes here are especially sweet and high in sugar content, which is caused by the unique climate in Turpan. The grapes here are incomparable to those in other regions. Grape varieties include mare's milk grape, seedless white grape (also known as small grape) and red grape. Of course, other melons and fruits here are also famous. Like cantaloupe-don't think cantaloupe is the best. In fact, because the melons in Turpan are the best, they were given to the emperor by King Hami. The emperor ate it and felt quite good. He immediately asked: What's the name of this melon? King Hami was speechless for a moment. The emperor gave it a name: Hami melon. In fact, cantaloupe originated in Turpan.

Turpan is famous for its heat in summer. In August, the daily temperature is basically above 42 degrees Celsius, and the ground temperature of Flame Mountain can reach 80 to 90 degrees Celsius, so it is called "Shawo boiled eggs". It is too hot for you. Fortunately, there is air conditioning.
