Scenic spot combinations:If focusing on natural scenery, prioritize routes with Kanas + Hemu + Sayram Lake; if preferring cultural experiences, add Yili Nalati Grassland or Turpan Jiaohe Ancient City.

Suitable groups:Family trips need attention to children’s entertainment facilities and meal arrangements; elderly tours need to confirm driving time and accommodation comfort; photography tours need to know shooting spots and optimal times in advance.
