Xinjiang Yili | A Summer Paradise Like No Other

Yili is a must-visit destination for first-time travelers to Xinjiang, where you can experience mountains, rivers, lakes, and "seas." Here are some travel tips for Xinjiang: ⛺【Must-Visit Spots】: 🌟 Sayram Lake: Vast grasslands meet a blue lake 💙. Wearing white here and capturing the scenery with a "small person, big landscape" composition creates a high-end photo! 🌟 Zhaosu Jade Lake: From the viewing platform, the lake’s turquoise waters resemble a dazzling sapphire embedded in the canyon—so breathtaking it feels like a fairyland. 🌟 Nalati Grassland: Instantly transports you to Switzerland! The deep green spruce trees and meandering streams on the grassland look like pure white ribbons. 🛬【Travel Itinerary】: 1. Airport pickup - Ürümqi 2. Ürümqi - S101 Highway - Bole 3.
