Exploring the Hidden Treasures of Southern Xinjiang:2026 National Day 8-Day Custom Vehicle In-Depth Tour: The Complete Guide from Kashgar to Tashkurgan
🌄 [Detailed Route or Destination Introduction]
Southern Xinjiang, this land embraced by the Kunlun Mountains and the Taklamakan Desert, hides China’s finest autumn scenery and culture. During the 2026 National Day period, the Pamir Plateau route from Kashgar to Tashkurgan has become a popular choice—here we do not merely recommend the majesty of Muztagh Ata, the ‘Father of Ice Mountains’; the emerald waters of Baisha Lake reflect the snow-capped mountains, and the Panlong Ancient Road carries the philosophical meaning of ‘Today I have traveled all the winding roads, from now on life is a smooth path.’ Tashkurgan County (Tashkurgan), as a border county bordering three countries—Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan—offers along the way visits to the Stone City ruins and the Golden Grassland wetlands, where you can experience the unique charm of various ethnic groups blending together.
