Tangbula·Mengket Ctrip 3-Diamond Hundred-Mile Gallery View Twin Room - Wake up to grassland views

Just returned from a healing trip to Xinjiang and discovered this hidden gem of a homestay in the Mengket Scenic Area of Tangbula, Nileke County - Yunqi Ancient Trail! As an enthusiast of off-the-beaten-path Xinjiang travel, this homestay completely captured my heart🥰 ✨【A Fairytale Retreat Straight Out of a Painting】 Nestled beside the ancient Mengket Trail deep in Tangbula Scenic Area (locally called "Little Kanas"), every window frames breathtaking views of snow-capped mountains, grasslands, and wildflowers. Each morning, you'll wake to golden sunlight dancing on mountain peaks🌄 🛏️【Signature Rooms + Immersive Experiences】 - Cloud View Room: 270° floor-to-ceiling windows perfect for stargazing from bed (bring a tripod!) - Yurt Experience Area: Authentic nomadic dwellings with nightly Kazakh song & dance performances - All rooms feature floor heating + humidifiers - dry skin saviors! 🚗【Travel Tips】 - 1.5-hour drive from Nileke County (recommend private car/self-drive) - Stop at the "Hundred-Mile Gallery" viewpoint en route - Navigate to "Mengket Ancient Trail Parking Lot" - free shuttle service available 📸【Instagram Hotspots】 1. Backhill grassland slope (best light at 6pm) 2. Starroom glass reflections (after midnight) 3. Swing photoshoot (white dresses recommended) 4. Morning mist over mountains from terrace (early risers only) 🍵【Hidden Experiences】 √ Horseback riding to nearby Fairy Lake √ Free traditional Kazakh costumes for photos √ Nightly bonfire parties + fresh milk experience √ Must-try homemade wild strawberry jam! ⚠️Notes: - Bring jackets for drastic temperature changes - Book view rooms 1 month in advance for peak season - SUV recommended for bumpy road sections This homestay brings "Heidi" scenes to life - perfect for escaping crowds and immersing in grassland beauty. Still swooning over my photos💓
