Starred Recommendation✨:Nalati Grassland In-Depth Exploration Tour – Immersive Experience of Grassland Culture and Natural Wonders in 2026
🌿 Nalati Grassland:An Ecological Museum in the Hinterland of the Tianshan Mountains
Located at the eastern end of the Ili River Valley in Xinjiang, Nalati Grassland sits at an average altitude of 2,200 meters. Surrounded by mountains on three sides and traversed by the Kunges River, it forms three core scenic areas: the “Sky Grassland,” “Valley Grassland,” and “Panlong Valley Path.” Not only is it recommended as one of the world’s four major valley grasslands, but its unique inverse temperature zone climate also makes it synonymous with the “early spring flower sea”—from May each year, globeflowers, primroses, and wild lilies bloom in succession, intertwining with snow-capped mountains, forests, streams, and flower fields to create a dynamic ecological tapestry.
The grassland is home to various ethnic groups, with nomadic culture passed down for thousands of years. Visitors can explore nomadic families, experience traditional skills like making nang (unleavened bread), milking cows, and crafting milk skins, stay overnight in yurts or characteristic homestays, gaze at the Milky Way, and feel the poetic life of “where the wind bends the grass to reveal sheep and cattle.”
