Meet the Populus euphratica in Yiwu, Xinjiang, and attend a rendezvous that spans a millennium!

Located in Naomaohu Town, Yiwu County, Hami City, Xinjiang, the Yiwu Populus euphratica scenic area is one of the only three remaining primitive Populus euphratica forests in the world. It is also the most concentrated, oldest, most uniquely shaped, and most accessible original Populus euphratica forest in China. The Yiwu Populus euphratica has fought and struggled thousands of times in the fierce winds that span thousands of miles, using its body to resist the raging sandstorms. Due to the harshness of their growth, the Yiwu Populus euphratica trees have taken on bizarre and unique shapes. Delving into this forest is like entering a palace of abstract art, captivating and beckoning visitors to return. The scenic area is developed around 'one main line and six regions,' naturally forming areas with tree ages of one thousand, three thousand, six thousand, nine thousand, and ten thousand years. Different areas and different ages offer vastly different experiences. Strolling along the scenic road, you can closely observe the Populus euphratica trees ranging from one thousand to ten thousand years in age. Each tree is a view, and each step reveals a new scene, as if entering a time tunnel and experiencing the cycle of life, truly 'one step into the Populus euphratica forest, a day's experience of a history of ten thousand years.' In the Yiwu Populus euphratica scenic area, along the 38-kilometer scenic road, you can closely observe the Populus euphratica trees ranging from one thousand to ten thousand years in age, as if entering a time tunnel and experiencing the cycle of life, truly: one step into the Populus euphratica forest, a day's experience of a history of ten thousand years. Thousands of Populus euphratica trees stretch and sway in the Gobi desert, presenting different appearances in each of the four seasons and changing colors from day to night, forming a series of vivid paintings. 🌈Other attractions: Yiwu Ancient City Hami Prince's Mansion Kazakh Ethnic Park 🍭Cuisine: Yiwu mutton, Hami melon, Xinjiang big plate chicken, mutton pilaf Xinjiang lamb skewers, pepper chicken, mixed noodles, etc. 🚗Transportation: ✈️Plane: Departure point - Hami Airport - Bus to Naomaohu Town - Taxi to Yiwu Populus euphratica 🚄Train: Departure point - Hami Railway Station - Carpool to Yiwu Populus euphratica (about 265KM) 📌Tips: ⭐️Since Yiwu is located in the eastern part of Xinjiang, you can see the first rays of sunlight in Xinjiang here.
