Welcome to beautiful Xinjiang! After airport pickup, you will be transferred to the hotel to rest, and then enjoy free time. If time permits, you may visit recommended attractions on your own (separate vehicle use not included). 【Warm Tips】 1. Xinjiang is very large, and the drive between attractions is long. Travel is very physically demanding, so please prepare some food or snacks for unexpected needs 2. Keep your mobile phone reachable before departure. The butler or driver will contact you in advance.

08:00-09:00 We are very happy to meet you in Xinjiang in this season! The driver will arrive at the hotel at the time agreed in advance and pick up everyone in order according to distance. The small-group pure sightseeing journey is about to begin. 09:00-19:30 Accompanied by cheerful music, we chat, laugh, and head to the [Duku Highway]. After entering the Duku Highway, we will stop and go along the winding mountain road. Along the way, we pass snow mountains, lakes, pine forests, and grasslands, cross the Tianshan Mountain passes, and experience the scenery of four seasons in one day—surely a wonderful experience on this trip! Along the way there are vast grasslands with charming scenery, towering cloud-shrouded snowy ridges, and the world-famous hundred-meter snow-proof corridor. The beautiful scenery along the way is endless. Riding over this highway, you experience the wonder of ice and fire. There are several viewpoints along the way for stopping and taking photos, including snow scenery at the Hashilegen Tunnel, the barrier lake, the panoramic view of the Duku Highway at Tianlu, and the Tianshan Watching Stone Tablet. 19:30-20:30 Head to Nalati Town to check into the hotel. Dinner is at your own expense. [Warm Tips] 1. The ultraviolet rays are strong. Please prepare sun protection measures. 2. The Duku Highway is a mountain road. The entire route is asphalt road and relatively flat, but because there are many bends, narrow roads, and many uphill and downhill sections, it is easy to get motion sickness. Friends prone to motion sickness should prepare motion sickness medicine in advance. 3. Mountain roads are highly dangerous. The driver will make appropriate stops at safe parking spots for photos, but the overall timing should follow the driver's arrangements. 4. Some sections of the Duku Highway are more than 3,000 meters above sea level. Temperatures drop, so please prepare thick clothing in advance. 5. Because the Duku Highway is affected by weather, as a rule it is only passable from June to September each year. During the period when it is not passable, the plan is as follows: the itinerary is changed to Urumqi-Flaming Mountains-Grape Valley-Korla.

09:00-15:00 After breakfast, drive to Kuqa County in the Aksu region of Southern Xinjiang. Once again cross the [Southern Section of the Duku Highway] to experience a Xinjiang road journey. Along the way, pass [Big and Small Dragon Pools] and seek the legend of the Queen Mother of the West: winding up along the curved mountain road, amid surrounding mountains and layered peaks, a stretch of green water suddenly appears, inlaid among the mountains like a gem, set beneath the azure sky, bringing an unexpected surprise. Green shade and lake water blend into one, and the water surface is as smooth as a mirror. Blue sky, white clouds, green mountains, green grass, distant pale-yellow barren mountains, and beautiful snow peaks harmoniously form the most magical scenery beyond the Great Wall, like two oil paintings. One hangs in the sky, one is reflected in the water. In mythology, the Queen Mother of the West of the Western Heaven loved Big Dragon Pool very much and often bathed in its broad, clear waters 15:00-18:00 In the afternoon, arrive at [Tianshan Mysterious Grand Canyon]. Entering the valley and walking among the reddish-brown mountains feels like entering a quiet and cool world. The canyon mouth is very wide, but deeper inside, peaks turn and paths wind, sometimes broad, sometimes narrow, with some places allowing only one person to pass sideways. The canyon floor is relatively flat, and much of the time you can stroll at ease. On both sides are towering stone walls, beneath your feet fine sand, and many sections are covered with a shallow layer of water and a thin layer of ice. After the tour, stay overnight in Kuqa 18:00-19:30 After the tour, go to Kuqa to check into the hotel. Dinner is at your own expense; you may also split the bill with fellow group members or enjoy local specialties on your own [Warm Tips] 1.

As an important cave complex in the history of Buddhism's eastward spread along the Silk Road, it was once filled with the sound of Buddhist chants. After a thousand years, only the remaining caves and faded murals are left, which cannot help but make one sigh. At the entrance, the sculpture of the eminent monk Kumarajiva gazes with half-closed eyes at the footsteps of today's visitors. Climbing the steps leading to the cliff, dozens of cave ruins are distributed on the cliff face, letting people feel the power of faith. After leaving the scenic area, have a simple meal along the way 13:30-17:00 Drive to Wensu Tomur Grand Canyon 17:00-20:00 Visit [Wensu Tomur Grand Canyon].
