It is reasonable to call the glacier No. 1 here, first of all, it shows that the proportion of glaciers is large, and the ice cubes of the ice and snow world have achieved an alternative style in the cold wind here, which is very popular.

Beautiful, but the road conditions are a little bit worse, the road is dusty, it is best to find a master in the local area to pack the car, familiar with the road conditions, otherwise it is easy to have accidents, dusty blocking the line of sight. During the day, you must pay attention to sun protection. There is this road to live in Kuitun. The hotel is very sufficient. Don't worry about no place to stay. There is a night market in the city center. Sheep baby barbecue is OK. In the past two years, there have been more people taking the Duku Highway. Many travel agencies on Danxia Highway are unwilling to go. Although I have visited Zhangye Danxia landform, I can still find a different beauty here!

The scenery is good, and the construction management is also very good, including the ropeway and the bus. But the 220 tickets (with traffic, ropeway) are still a bit expensive. We only climbed to the second viewing platform and looked at the third. It was too high, which was equivalent to climbing Huangshan. As a tourist who played in Tianchi on the first day of the trip, it is recommended not to climb to the top, and leave physical strength for the follow-up trip. Finally, I think the stone forest here is better than Kunming.

The southeast is 55 kilometers from Toxon County and 10 kilometers from Keerjian Town. Features: The peak forest landscape formed by erosion and wind erosion is called "Pan Jiltage". "Pan Jiltage" Uyghur meaning "like a porous window of the mountain". The stone forest monolithic structure is generally 2 ~ 5 meters, the large height is more than ten meters, the total area is about 1 square kilometer. The rock mass is mostly Carboniferous volcanic rock and tuff, green gray or brown red, the rock contains rich calcium carbonate. Cause: wind and rain are the two main reasons for the formation of Panjir Monster Forest. Panjir Monster Forest is located in the "30-mile wind area" in the west of Turpan. It has strong winds and fast winds. The winds above level 8 account for one-third of the year. A train encountered a wind gust of level 13 in Turpan, and 11 carriages were overturned. The place where the incident occurred was the closest to Toxon County. Strong wind erosion coupled with the effect of rainwater in the mountains, formed a stone forest landscape similar to Taihu stone shape. This strange stone forest is a kind of Carboniferous volcanic rock mountain type stone forest formed under specific natural conditions. Attractions: Enter Panjir Monster Stone Forest Scenic Area, all kinds of strange rock formations are characters, birds and animals, with different appearances and lifelike. Among them, the thousand-year-old camel, Tang monks took scriptures, Li Bai asked the moon, the eagle overlooking, the crocodile out of the hole, etc., it is floaty and has a endless aftertaste. It is rumored that after Tang Seng's Xitian, monks of all ethnic groups living in the Western Regions followed suit and went to India to study. One day, a group of monks traveled west with business travelers, passing by the strange stone mountain, attracted by the wonderful scenery here, and advancing along the mountain road, but they never returned and mysteriously disappeared. [Fun] Eat a delicious Toxon noodles in Toxon, 40 minutes to reach the strange stone forest scenic spot, the tickets are not expensive, there are discount activities in the off-season, the mountain climbing road is all over the scenic spot, relatively good to climb, reserve 2 hours, while walking while watching while taking pictures, unique beauty makes people linger, Bringing children and family together is a good choice.

Flame Mountain is basically to take pictures and leave. The reason why I chose to go is because of a feeling of travel west. The online netizens commented correctly. If you don't go, you want to see it. Go there and never go again next time.

Yadan landform, or wind erosion ridge, is a typical wind erosion landform. "Yadan" in Uyghur means "small hill bag with steep wall". Due to the abrasion of the wind, the lower part of the hill bag often suffers strong denudation and gradually forms a concave shape. Looking at the ghostly work of nature, I can't sigh my own smallness at the same time, and the endless charm of the desert ~~~
