Tour Highlights

Holiday with friends & family.
As many activities & excursions as can be fitted in to your trip.
Go any day of the week and most times of the year.

Day 01 :

Departure point - Urumqi (airport pick-up)

Airport Pickup: According to your flight schedule, our staff will greet you at Ürümqi Diwopu International Airport. Subsequently, you will be transferred to the urban hotel by car (driving time: approximately 40 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the hotel location). After checking in, take a short rest to refresh yourself.
Recommended Activities:
- Visit Xinjiang International Grand Bazaar to wander through specialty shops (e.g., hand-woven carpets, ethnic musical instruments) and experience Uyghur urban culture.
- Alternatively, go to Erdaoqiao Market to purchase dried fruits such as raisins and badam nuts (remember to compare prices and choose shops with clearly marked prices).
Dining Recommendation: Taste Xinjiang specialties at restaurants near the Grand Bazaar or in the urban area, such as Polo (Hand-Grabbed Rice, lamb flavor recommended), Roasted Buns (crispy crust with generous filling), and fresh pomegranate juice (freshly squeezed is better). Avoid overeating to prevent gastrointestinal discomfort.
Time Difference Reminder: Xinjiang has a 2-hour time difference with inland China (e.g., it gets dark at around 19:00 in inland areas but around 21:00 in Xinjiang). It is advisable to rest early to adjust your schedule and reserve energy for the long-distance drive the next day.

Day 02 :

Urumqi S21 Desert Highway - Passing through Lake Ulungu - Burqin/Altay

Departure from Ürümqi: Depart by private car from Ürümqi to Bosten Lake via Turpan-Korla Expressway. Stop at service areas twice along the way for rest and meals (the guide recommends special simple meals at the service areas).
Sightseeing at Bosten Lake: Visit 【Bosten Lake】 (admission + scenic area shuttle bus included). The guide will lead you to check in at "Golden Beach" and stroll along the lakeside plank road to enjoy the scenery of "China's largest inland freshwater lake". Optional activities: Lake cycling (at own expense) in summer; viewing reed marshes and migratory birds (subject to season) in autumn.
Transfer to Korla: Drive to downtown Korla by private car. On the way, the guide will introduce Korla's characteristic as the "Pear City" and recommend local fragrant pear purchasing channels.

Day 03 :

Burqin/Altay Ahe Highway (if open) - Hemu

Breakfast & Departure: After breakfast at the hotel, depart. Priority is given to taking Ahe Highway (if closed due to weather/construction, take the regular route "Burqin → Jiadengyu → Hemu"). The whole journey is about 180-200km, with a driving time of 3.5-4.5 hours.
Scenery Along Ahe Highway: Ahe Highway connects grasslands, forests, and villages. Along the way, it passes through "Chonghu'er Grassland" and "Hemu River Valley". Stop at viewing platforms or safe parking spots (10-15 minutes each time) to take photos of grassland cattle and sheep, forest streams—every shot is wallpaper-worthy.

Enter Hemu Village: Purchase Hemu scenic area ticket + shuttle bus ticket, and take the shuttle bus into the village (about 50 minutes' drive; enjoy river valley scenery along the way while passing Hemu River).

Afternoon Free Activity (2 Recommended Options):
1. Hike to Hemu Viewing Platform (about 1 hour one-way, gentle trail suitable for all groups) to overlook the entire Hemu Village (wooden house clusters, Hemu River, distant snow-capped mountains) and take panoramic photos.
2. Wander along Hemu River (from the west end of the village to "Hemu Bridge")—step on pebbles, listen to the sound of flowing water, feel the primitive tranquility of the Tuvan village up close, and encounter herdsmen grazing (do not feed cattle and sheep randomly).
Sunset Viewing: Head to the viewing platform to wait for the sunset (sunset at around 21:00 in summer, 18:00 in winter) and watch the setting sun gild the wooden houses and forests.
Dinner: Return to the village after sunset and have dinner at the homestay or a village restaurant (recommended: Hand-Grabbed Meat, Large Plate Chicken; average cost: 60-80 RMB per person).

Transfer to Kanas Scenic Area: Drive from Hemu Ticket Office to Kanas Scenic Area (about 1 hour's drive; if staying in Jiadengyu the previous night, take the Kanas scenic area shuttle bus directly from Jiadengyu).

Lunch: Have lunch at a restaurant near the tourist center (consumption in the scenic area is relatively high, with an average cost of 50-80 RMB per person; you can also eat self-prepared snacks such as bread and ham).
Wander Along Kanas Lake Three Bays (Fairy Bay, Moon Bay, Wolong Bay):
- Recommended Route: First take the shuttle bus to "Fairy Bay" (about 15 minutes' drive from the tourist center)—there is morning mist in the early morning, and the lake surface reflects like broken silver in the afternoon; stay for 20 minutes to take photos.
- Walk to "Moon Bay" (about 1.5km, gentle trail with forests and streams along the way; about 30 minutes)—admire the crescent-shaped lake surface and the "Footprint Beach" on the shore, and take iconic photos.
- Continue walking to "Wolong Bay" (about 1km, 20 minutes)—see the island in the lake shaped like a lying dragon; you can go down to the lakeside to touch the icy water (do not play in the water).
Optional Activity: If time permits, optionally take a cruise on the lake (about 1 hour, cost: approximately 120 RMB per person) to admire the blue and magnificent Kanas Lake from the water perspective.
Return to Burqin: Take the shuttle bus out of Kanas Scenic Area (about 30 minutes' drive if leaving from Jiadengyu), then drive back to Burqin (about 150km, 2.5 hours' drive).

Burqin - Wucaitan - Urhe

Breakfast & Departure: After breakfast at the Burqin hotel, depart for Wucai Beach (about 24km, 25 minutes' drive) and arrive at the scenic area before 09:30 (avoid strong midday light; the soft morning light makes the yardang landforms more colorful in photos).
Sightseeing at Wucai Beach: Purchase tickets (approximately 50 RMB per person) and enter the scenic area. Walk along the wooden plank road (about 1.5km, 1.5 hours) to admire the landscape of "two different worlds on both sides of a river":
- North Bank: Yardang landforms—rocks show colors such as red, green, yellow, and purple due to different minerals, presenting a colorful scene in the sun.
- South Bank: Lush poplar forests, forming a sharp contrast with the desolation of the north bank.
- Middle: Irtysh River (China's only river flowing into the Arctic Ocean) flows through, with clear water reflecting the scenery on both banks.
Photo Spots: Recommended to take photos at the "Viewing Platform" and "Suspension Bridge" to record the different scenery on both banks.
Lunch: After leaving Wucai Beach, have lunch in downtown Burqin or a town along the way (e.g., "Woyimoke Town"). Recommended: "Burqin Cold-Water Fish Braised with Pancake"; average cost: 60-80 RMB per person.
Transfer to Urho: Drive to Urho after lunch (about 220km, 3.5-4 hours' drive). The scenery along the way is mainly Gobi and grasslands; you can take short breaks at safe parking spots to relieve travel fatigue.
Evening Activity: Arrive in Urho in the evening, check in at the hotel, and rest for 1-2 hours to avoid the high evening temperature (Urho has high temperatures in the afternoon in summer). If it is autumn (October), you can go to Urho Populus Euphratica Forest Park after 19:30 (about 10km, 15 minutes' drive; ticket: approximately 40 RMB) to watch poplar trees at sunset (golden leaves against the Gobi, highly atmospheric). Return to the urban area for dinner after about 1 hour (recommended: Urho Large Plate Chicken, generous portion).

Day 06 :

Urhe Devil City Urumqi

Breakfast & Departure: After breakfast at the Urho hotel, depart for World Devil's City and arrive before 09:00. Purchase tickets + small train tickets (ticket: approximately 46 RMB; small train is mandatory: approximately 50 RMB; 1 hour round trip).
Sightseeing at Devil's City: Take the small train into the scenic area for a tour. The small train stops at 4 fixed viewing platforms (15-20 minutes per stop):
- Get off to take photos and listen to the guide introduce the formation of the landforms (it was a lake hundreds of millions of years ago, forming yardang landforms through weathering and erosion) and the origin of the name "Devil's City" (wind passes through rock crevices, making howling sounds similar to "devil's roar").
Photo Spots: Recommended to take photos at "Castle Viewing Platform" and "Dinosaur Valley Viewing Platform" to see various shaped yardang stone pillars (e.g., "Peacock Spreading Its Tail", "Sea Lion Watching the Moon") and feel the desolate grandeur of the Gobi.
Lunch: After leaving Devil's City, have lunch at a restaurant at the scenic area exit or in downtown Urho (recommended: Xinjiang Stir-Fried Rice Noodles; choose mild spicy to avoid stomach irritation; average cost: 30-50 RMB per person).
Return to Ürümqi: Drive back to Ürümqi after lunch (about 400km, 4.5-5 hours' drive). Enjoy the alternating scenery of Gobi and farmland along the way; if it is evening, you can watch the Gobi sunset (around 19:00).
Farewell Dinner: Arrive in Ürümqi in the evening, check in at the hotel, and then go to a characteristic urban restaurant (e.g., "Xiaogaizi", "Abula's Naan") for a hearty farewell dinner. Recommended: Large Plate Chicken, Spicy Pepper Chicken, Yogurt Rice Dumplings; average cost: 60-80 RMB per person.

Day 07 :
