云卷云舒GExit from the south gate of Sailimu Lake and take the county road to enter the first scenic spot of Yili, "Guozigou Bridge". After the driver and guide park, walk down the wooden plank road to enjoy the scenery of Guozigou Bridge from a relatively close distance. [Scenery] Looking around, the white cable-stayed Guozigou Bridge spans the entire canyon. On the gray-green rolling mountains in the distance, there are straight spruce trees everywhere, and there are light green lawns in the near distance, plus blue sky and white clouds, colorful and layered. [Fun] Although you can walk up and down the wooden plank road smoothly, take photos from different angles. There are also many horseback riding tourists here, enjoying the fun of riding fast or slow. There are also many people walking on the lawn to enjoy the beauty here. The cost-effectiveness brought by nature is still very high.

三千夺命销魂鸭The tourism industry in Fushou Mountain seems to be very depressed now, and not many people go in. When I went there, I felt like I had the whole place to myself, the entire mountain. The scenery on the top of the mountain is nice, and there is a swing that is very suitable for checking in, and you can take pictures with that boundless feeling.

冯JQOn the way to Yili, I passed by the Yiparhan Lavender Garden. I saw the AAAA sign and went to see it. The lavender garden is quite large, the flowers are in full bloom, and there are photo-taking scenes in the fields. The check-in photos are very attractive.

- 铮宝麻麻Strolling along Yining's Liuxing Street, sunlight bathes the streets in an exotic atmosphere. Century-old alleys wind like poems, their blue walls and stained glass windows telling the story of time. Uyghur artisans strike bronze instruments, their clinking echoing through time. The aroma of baked buns fills the street corners, and the rhythm of hand drums awakens the dormant bricks and tiles. Every tile here is engraved with a story, and behind every carved wooden door lies a warm smile. The hexagonal streets and alleys, like blooming flowers, quietly embrace diverse cultures.

M47***16The sea of flowers in Tianshan is a palette kissed by the wind - lavender spreads into purple mist, rapeseed spreads like a golden carpet, and the snow-capped mountains in the distance are the white space that has not dried yet. You can ride a horse in the flower path, watch the shadows of clouds passing over the tips of the flowers, and even the air is soaked with sweetness.

天边06Huiyuan Ancient City is a historic town in Yili, Xinjiang. Once the seat of the "Yili General's Mansion," the Qing Dynasty's governing authority over Xinjiang, it's a perfect destination for travelers interested in history and culture. Here are its highlights and things to note: 🏛️ Things to Experience: 1. A Rich Sense of History: The core attraction, the "Yili General's Mansion," is well-preserved. The blue-brick official residence and ancient trees in the courtyard evoke the majesty of the former frontier military and political center, making it a perfect place for a leisurely stroll and perusing the historical landscape. 2. Visit the Bell Tower: The bell tower in the center of the ancient city is a reconstruction, offering panoramic views of the old city and excellent photo opportunities. 3. An Atmosphere of Ethnic Blend: The surrounding streets reflect a diverse culture, with Uyghur and Han residents living together, and local snack vendors offer distinctive local flavors. ⚠️ Things to Note: · Moderate your expectations: The area is small, some buildings are modern reconstructions, and the original historical sites are limited. If you prefer natural scenery or bustling tourist destinations, it might feel monotonous. Transportation: You'll need to drive or charter a car to get there, as public transportation is inconvenient. We recommend combining this with a visit to surrounding attractions like Huocheng Lavender Farm and Princess Jieyou Farm. Low Commercialization: Difficult dining and shopping options are limited, so bring your own drinks and snacks. 📌 Summary: This is a suitable "cultural supplement" stop on a loop itinerary around Ili. A 1-2 hour stay is sufficient. History buffs will appreciate this, but casual travelers can plan their itinerary flexibly based on their availability.

A꧁壹娑.孙舫꧂ 🧸Baguacheng is well worth a visit. Riding an electric donkey in the nighttime breeze was so relaxing. We had the breakfast recommended by the B&B owner, but unfortunately, we arrived late and missed out on the delicious pancakes. However, the owner ordered all the street food for us: delicious lamb skewers, dumplings, cold noodles, pepper chicken, and sauerkraut noodles... He even made milk tea for us. I wasn't used to it, but it was so touching. Afterward, we checked out at every shop and even had crayfish. Hahaha. I ate so many skewers and big plate chicken that I thought crayfish was even better. 🔴Xiwei Fast Food Restaurant. Xibe flatbread is a Xibe specialty, only found in Yili. Freshly made white pancakes are served with cauliflower, chive chili sauce, milk tea, and a delicious jerk. 🔴Ruyan Farmhouse Courtyard👍🏻 This Hui-style stir-fry restaurant is also quite good. The spicy pork and Kazakh potato chips are excellent. 🔴 Ma Bai Kailai's lamb chops and sliced pork slices are a Xinjiang specialty, and Dingjia Private Kitchen is also quite good, a Xinjiang specialty. 🔴The next morning, I went to Apa's milk tea house and had baolsak.
