Winter Xinjiang customized vehicle tours:Unlock the Northern Xinjiang ice and snow fairy tale with a regular choice
❄ ️[Detailed route or destination introduction]
In winter, Xinjiang sheds its autumn colors and transforms into a snow-covered ice and snow kingdom. Northern Xinjiang, centered on Kanas, Hemu, and Sayram Lake, forms the “Three Ice and Snow Wonders” landscape belt:The rime corridor of the Three Bays of Kanas, the starry skies over the Tuvan wooden houses of Hemu Village, and the blue ice bubble clusters of Sayram Lake form a rare ice and snow secret realm in China. In the winter of 2026, the northern section of the Duku Highway (Urumqi to Qiaoerma section) will open for a limited time, connecting geological wonders such as Tianshan Tianchi and Koktokay, forming a dual-theme loop of “ice and snow + geology.” Although Southern Xinjiang is mainly known for cultural landscapes, the snow scenery of Muztagh Ata on the Pamir Plateau and the frozen wonder of Baisha Lake also attract photography enthusiasts.
