📍 Route Highlights:Spanning East and West, an in-depth tour of China’s diverse landscapes
The ‘Yangtze River Delta Star’ starts and ends in Shanghai, forming a complete loop covering the core scenic areas of southern and northern Xinjiang. The itinerary includes natural wonders such as the edge of the Taklamakan Desert, the lakes of the Pamir Plateau, the canyons of the Tianshan Mountains, and the forests around Kanas Lake, while also incorporating cultural visits and ecological experiences.
