Respect the customs and habits of local ethnic groups. Do not pick plants or disturb livestock in the scenic areas.
The beauty of Yili lies in the layered changes of the seasons—pink apricot blossom valleys in spring, green grasslands and flower seas in summer, wheat waves in Zhaosu in autumn, and quiet snowfields in winter.
