[Route Highlights:The Hidden Veins of the Pamir Plateau]
This off-road route through the Karakoram Mountains will take you through小众 (lesser-known) scenic spots at altitudes of 3,000-4,500 meters, visiting three newly popular网红 (internet-famous) destinations in recent years:
Bandir Blue Lake 💧:The lake water appears Tiffany blue due to its mineral content. After the completion of the lakeside boardwalk in 2025, it has become a hidden “Mirror of the Sky” for photography enthusiasts. Open from 10:00-18:00 daily, a pass is required for entry.
Muji Volcanic Craters 🌋:A dormant volcano group surrounded by the Eighteen Arhats Snow Mountains. The newly built observation platform in 2026 allows simultaneous photography of the volcanic craters and snow-capped peaks. It is recommended to bring a windbreaker as instant wind speeds can reach Force 7.
New Section of the Panlong Ancient Road 🛣️:The “Little Panlong” branch route opened in late 2025 features 32 hairpin turns densely packed within an 8-kilometer stretch. In 2026, three new observation decks with professional photography brackets have been added.
