The Legend of Zelda by the Duku Highway

When going to the Duku Highway, I accidentally stepped into an unknown 'Zelda in real life'! The Tianshan Stone Forest, a niche secret spot that probably 98% of the locals in Xinjiang don't know about, is right next to Bayinbuluke The moment I set foot on it, I was surrounded by the rich wilderness atmosphere, as if the land of Hyrule from the game came to life before my eyes🏞 📍Location: Tianshan Stone Forest, Hejing County, Bazhou, Xinjiang 🎟Ticket: Free ⌚️Time: Open all day, the light is most beautiful in the morning, but it takes about 3 hours to drive in from the entrance, so remember to reserve enough time 🚐Transportation: Only accessible by self-driving, there is only one road in, it is recommended to drive an SUV or four-wheel drive for stability. Also, don't forget to fill up the gas tank beforehand, as there are no gas stations here! Shooting Locations 🏠Cabin: Entering the grassland section, you will see an idle wooden house, which is a good spot for shooting 🌱Vast Grassland: Behind the wooden house on the hillside, there is a grassland with a wide view, very suitable for photography Grassland Track Road: Along the way to the plank road entrance, the track road adds a different charm 🏔Snow Mountain: The stone forest and the Tianshan mountain range are in the same frame, and the effect of aerial photography with a drone is yyds Mountain Road: The downhill road before entering the village, winding and meandering, is a bit like the Panlong Ancient Path ⚠️Tips: 1️⃣There is almost no signal, only a little mobile signal, but it is intermittent. However, in the village at the foot of the mountain, 4G is full, so don't worry about losing contact 2️⃣There are no shops here, so be sure to bring enough drinking water and self-heating food 3️⃣The temperature difference between day and night is big, remember to wear a three-in-one jacket or other warm clothing 4️⃣For accommodation, you can choose the yurts at the foot of the mountain to experience the grassland style The village is sparsely populated, mostly Mongolian herders who do not speak Mandarin well, but please respect each other and communicate friendly 5️⃣Respect nature, do not drive over the grassland outside the pastoral road, and take your own trash with you!
