🌿"North of Northern Xinjiang is Altay, she is a wild dream, she is the wind of the mountains and wilds." In Li Juan's words, Altay seems to have come to life. Travel Experience 1⃣️Hemu Village is divided into new and old villages, with the new village having better accommodation conditions, being quieter, but further away from the Hemu Viewing Platform. · 2⃣️Kanas also has old and new villages, both consisting of log cabins, with the old village closer to Kanas Lake and the new village near the Fish Viewing Pavilion. · 3⃣️Don't go to the Devil's City in the afternoon, it's too hot, go at 8 or 9 pm instead to see the sunset, just perfect, and so beautiful. · 4⃣️Sun protection is very important, bring a hat, sunglasses, sun protection clothing, and an umbrella! Sincere advice from someone who got sunburned in layers in just one day, a lesson learned with blood and tears. · 5⃣️Definitely experience staying in a log cabin in Altay, but remember to book in advance, as it's hard to find availability during peak season. · 6⃣️Try not to bring large suitcases into the Hemu Village scenic area, as you need to take a shuttle bus there, and large luggage can be left in the car or at the hotel. · 7⃣️The scenic area is large with many places requiring walking, so wearing a pair of comfortable shoes is very important, and the best shoes should be slip-resistant. · 8⃣️Hadan Viewing Platform, this is the best spot to overlook Hemu Village, and also the best place to watch the sunrise in the morning. · 9⃣️The scenic area implements an online real-name system for time-slot reservation and ticket purchase. Be sure to buy tickets in advance during peak season, no need to pick up tickets, just swipe your ID card to enter the park directly. 🔟Temperature difference is significant: Altay has a large temperature difference between day and night, it is recommended to bring warm clothing, such as jackets, sweaters, etc.🧥 Tried and tested good food🍽️ 🐟Grilled fish: Various types of fish caught from the clear Irtysh River, such as whitefish, five-stripe, nine-stripe, dogfish, etc., with a wide variety. ☀️Svayda breakfast: Russian-style bread with sweet jam and milk skin, plus potato beef patties and horse intestines. 🍪Kazakh cookies: Handmade by local Kazakhs, each piece is filled with tradition and authentic flavor.👩‍🍳🍪 Here's my travel itinerary for those who may need it 𝘿1: Direct flight to Urumqi 𝘿2: Urumqi-S101 Baili Danxia-Dushanzi Grand Canyon-Kuitun 𝘿3: Kuitun-Devil's City-Burqin 𝘿4: Burqin-Kanas-Lakeside Plank Road 𝘿5: Kanas-Baihaba-Lonely Tree-Hemu 𝘿6: Hemu-Most Beautiful Figure in Birch Forest-Burqin 𝘿7: Burqin-Ulungur Lake Golden Coast-Urumqi 𝘿8: Fly back home from Urumqi

When the spring chill in Altay had not yet completely dissipated, I rushed to Fuhai County like a migratory bird returning to its nest. Here is the northern Xinjiang bird-watching resort - Ulungur Lake, and the Marriott Fuli that I have been longing for. Last spring, I stepped into this newly opened hotel for the first time. Not only did I taste the authentic Kazakh food, Baursak, but I was also lucky enough to meet a couple who also loved bird watching and came all the way from Beijing. This year, I came back again, still in the familiar Fu Yi king-size bed room, brewed a cup of fragrant tea, waited for my friends, and waited for the migratory birds to return together. Lake Ulungur in spring is a paradise for migratory birds. As the temperature rises, the ice and snow in Ulungur Lake National Wetland Park melt, providing a natural "energy supply station" for migratory birds. Every spring, dozens of migratory birds fly in flocks over the Tianshan Mountains and the Altai Mountains to rest and recuperate. The arrival of hundreds of swans adds a lively beauty to this area of ​​water. The total area of ​​Ulungur Lake National Wetland Park is over 120,000 hectares, with rich wetland types. Lakes, swamps and river wetlands provide sufficient food and safe habitats for migratory birds. This place is not only a habitat for migratory birds, but also an important channel for their migration. Every year, it presents the spectacular scene of hundreds of birds singing in spring. If you also love birds and nature, you might as well come to Fuhai and stay at Fuhai Marriott Hotel, start a bird-watching trip in comfort and feel the vitality and infinite charm of nature. Fuhai County Furui Marriott Hotel (Fuhai Station Wulungu Lake Park Branch)
