Rich as oil - Karamay

Karamay, in Uighur means 'oil', located at the northwest edge of the Junggar Basin in Xinjiang. It's no wonder it's the city with the highest GDP per capita The city's infrastructure is quite good As soon as you enter, a strong smell of crude oil drills into your nose There's not much to see in the Heiyou Mountain Scenic Area, you can probably finish touring in about half an hour, there are many oil springs distributed on both sides of the viewing plank road, it is said that the first oil well that erupted here is in this Heiyou Mountain Park In fact, there are many wells in the park, constantly bubbling up, the air is filled with a strong smell of crude oil, it's quite a unique experience. Only one is not frozen, still spewing crude oil~~ Heiyou Mountain Scenic Area - 🎫39 yuan (buy on arrival) Opening hours 9:30-18:30
