The first stop after entering Xinjiang | Xinjiang·Hami!

| Xinjiang·Hami!.🎈"The ancient gateway of the Central Plains, the old Yiwu, once had a powerful vassal stationed here". Upon arriving in Xinjiang, the first thing that catches the eye is the boundless Gobi Desert. Passing through the Gobi, you arrive at Hami City, located in the eastern part of Xinjiang. As an important town on the ancient Silk Road, Hami's geographical position is very important, and it is known as the "Eastern Gate" of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, also referred to as the "throat of the Western Regions, the passage of east and west". 🎈If you have half a day's time, why not explore the four attractions within 500 meters. Hami King's Mansion The Hami King's Mansion was the residence of the Uyghur leaders in the Hami region after the Qing Dynasty. It was built in 1706 by the first Hami King, Ebeydulla, who invited Han craftsmen to design and construct it, and it was rebuilt on the basis of the original Mongolian King's Mansion. After several generations of renovations and expansions by the Hami Kings, the mansion reached its peak size of "over a hundred acres". Due to its grand architectural style, it is known as the "Little Forbidden City of Hami". (Admission fee 35 yuan) Hami King's Mausoleum The Hami King's Mausoleum is a group of tomb buildings for the Hami Kings and their family members throughout history. It is a famous Islamic architectural site in Xinjiang, with a square base and a round top. Covering an area of 13,000 square meters, it is a mausoleum complex that integrates various styles. As one of the highest level architectural works in the Hami region of the Western Regions during the Qing Dynasty, it has great artistic value and historical significance. (Visiting alone might feel a bit eerie, and there are fewer tourists this season, so I did not enter the tomb) (Admission fee 18 yuan) Hami City Museum Its architectural appearance alone is enough to attract attention. Coming out of the King's Mansion, you can see the museum across the street. Inside, you can see a wonderful display of dinosaur fossils and other exhibits! And admission is free. Aleltun Ancient Street This place is very suitable for taking photos and checking in. Perhaps because it is the off-season, some shops have not yet opened. But all the buildings display the unique characteristics of the Western Regions. 🎈(In Hami City, if you have time, you can also go to these places to check in and take photos. The whole trip only takes two to three hours, and it is also very close to the city center. Additionally, the Hami King's Mansion is not Hui, but Uyghur)
