The mysterious winter of Xinjiang.

Already looking forward to winter in Xinjiang • Magnificent snow scenery: In winter, especially in northern Xinjiang, the region is often covered with thick snow, creating a magnificent snow scene. Snow-capped mountains, forests, and grasslands present a tranquil and mysterious beauty. • Tianshan Mountains: The Tianshan Mountains are particularly spectacular in winter, with snow-covered peaks and frozen lakes at the foot of the mountains, creating a unique winter landscape. • Kanas Lake: Kanas Lake turns into a frozen world in winter, with the lake surface frozen and the surrounding forests and mountains covered in snow, making it a paradise for photographers. • Hemu Village: Located in the Altay region, Hemu Village looks like a fairy tale world in winter, with wooden houses, snowfields, and smoke from chimneys forming a tranquil rural picture. • Sayram Lake: Sayram Lake freezes completely in winter, turning the lake surface into a huge ice rink, making it a great place for ice skating enthusiasts. • Nalati Grassland: The Nalati Grassland is covered with thick snow in winter, and cattle and sheep graze in the snow, forming a vivid winter grassland scene. • Folk customs: Winter in Xinjiang is also a good time to experience local folk customs, such as the winter nomadic life of the Kazakh people and the traditional festivals of the Uyghur people, all of which are full of rich ethnic customs. • Food: Xinjiang's winter food is also a major feature, such as lamb skewers, pilaf, and big plate chicken, with steaming hot food bringing warmth in the cold winter. • Winter sports: Xinjiang is also a great place for winter sports, such as skiing and ice skating, with many places having well-equipped ski resorts. • Starry sky: In winter in Xinjiang, the air is fresh, and the night sky is particularly brilliant, making it an excellent place for stargazers. Winter in Xinjiang is a charming season, with both natural scenery and cultural customs worth visiting.
