Frozen Wonderland · Northern Xinjiang Snow Scenery In-Depth Exploration:2-6 Person Carpool Kanas & Sayram Lake No-Shopping Tour Group
Detailed Introduction to the Route or Destination
Winter in Northern Xinjiang is a snow-and-ice painting drawn by nature’s own hand. The blue ice of Kanas Lake shimmers with a cold blue light in the sunlight; the ice layer on the lake can be over one meter thick, and natural phenomena such as ice bubbles and ice cracks display fantastical colors as the light changes. The wooden cabin roofs in Hemu Village are piled with fluffy snow mushrooms, and the birch forests are covered in thick snow, as if entering a quiet fairy-tale world. Sayram Lake is famous for its blue ice, ice bubbles, and ice cracks; in winter the lake surface is like a giant sapphire, reflecting the distant snow mountains, and the scenery is sacred and breathtaking.
Besides natural landscapes, winter in Northern Xinjiang also holds rich ethnic cultures. The Tuvan people’s thousand-year-old fur skiing craft, the winter fishing traditions of various ethnic groups, and the warm hospitality and folk customs of all ethnicities all add unique cultural charm to this world of ice and snow.
