Autumn Scenery Season (Late September to Early October):Forests ablaze with color contrast with snow-capped mountains, but the Duku Highway may close early due to snowfall.

The current Yili tourism market is well-regulated, with all fees required to be included in contracts. Choose a travel agency with proper operating credentials to avoid hidden costs or self-funded items in ‘discount’ tours. Before departure, request to see the vehicle’s registration and driver’s professional certificate for a worry-free trip.
