Xinjiang Grand Theater is located in the suburbs of Urumqi. It covers a large area and has a spacious parking lot. There is a buffet on the first floor of the theater. The tour group arranged dinner here that day and went directly to watch the Thousand Returns to the Western Regions performance after dinner. There are entrances to the performance hall on the second and third floors of the theater, which are divided into odd and even numbers. The theater is large and imposing.

Xinjiang Grand Theater is the most famous modern architectural landmark in Xinjiang. Located on the west bank of Tunhe River in Changji City, the Grand Theater often stages large-scale song and dance performances featuring Xinjiang folk customs: &quot;A Thousand Returns to the Western Regions&quot;. It is a must-see for tourists visiting Xinjiang. Now, due to the epidemic, the performance has been suspended.

Xinjiang Grand Theater is the most famous modern architectural benchmark in Xinjiang. At present, the Grand Theater performs large-scale song and dance performances with Central Asian and Xinjiang folk customs all year round, &quot;Thousands of Returns to the Western Regions&quot;. The program is divided into several movements with different styles and different nationalities, and shows the unique mountains, grasslands, lakes, deserts and different cultural features of various nationalities in Xinjiang. It is a model of performance activities in Xinjiang. In addition to being located in the easternmost part of Changji City and close to Urumqi Diwopu International Airport, if you go from the city, sometimes there will be traffic jams and you need to arrange time in advance to avoid delays. Overall, the viewing effect and visual experience of this large-scale song and dance performance here are shocking, and it is worth it for tourists and first-time visitors to Xinjiang to experience and play.

Speaking of deserts, friends in the south must be very curious and unfamiliar with them. It is hot in summer and cold in winter. It is very beautiful and has a unique western style. It is a place you will fall in love with as soon as you come. Come and check it out! !

We took a bus from Urumqi to Altay Kanas via Turpan and passed through the Gurbantunggut Desert, the third largest desert in Xinjiang. The edge of the desert was seriously deserted and almost eroded by the Gobi Desert. There was a salt lake on the way that looked like a mirror from a distance, shining white, which means it reflected the sunlight...

The second largest desert in China, it is called a desert, but there is not much quicksand, it is more like a wasteland. There is no scenic area, you can enter from anywhere, and off-road vehicles can drive in. It is said that you can find wild horses and wild donkeys in the deep, and ordinary cars cannot drive in.

The three largest deserts in China are the Taklimakan Desert first, the Tengger Desert third, and the Gurbantunggut Desert second. This desert is also very large, but it does not cross the province like the Tengger Desert. The section I went to was the Baisha Lake Scenic Area, which is close to Kazakhstan. The neighboring country is a green forest, which is in sharp contrast to our desert.
