Hey everyone👋, I'm a travel enthusiast who loves exploring hidden gems😎. I recently visited Altay, taking advantage of the beautiful spring weather in April. This trip felt like stepping into a fairytale wonderland, a blend of snow-capped mountains and vast wilderness. Now, I'm sharing my detailed travel guide with you all. 📍Altay, located in northern Xinjiang, is a treasure trove of natural beauty👏! Here, you'll find Kanas Lake, a "paradise on earth," with its mystical lake monster legends and waters that change color with the seasons, creating a dreamlike landscape. Hemu Village, with its charmingly scattered Tuvan wooden houses and wisps of smoke rising from chimneys, resembles a utopia. Add to that the boundless grasslands and majestic snow-capped mountains, and Altay becomes a magnificent oil painting, every inch exuding a primitive and captivating charm. 🚗【Transportation Guide】 ✈️If you're flying, you'll land at Altay Airport. While not large, the airport has seen an increase in routes over the years. Upon arrival, shuttle buses are available to the city center and major scenic spots. Taxis are also an option, making it super convenient to start your journey. For budget travelers, the airport bus offers a leisurely way to enjoy the scenery along the way. 🚌From Urumqi, you can take a long-distance bus or train to Altay. Buses are more frequent and offer stunning views of northern Xinjiang's vast landscape. However, the journey is long, so be prepared for extended travel time. Distances between scenic spots in Altay are considerable, so renting a car is recommended for flexibility and photo opportunities along the way. 🗺【Recommended Itinerary】 Day 1: Altay City - Kanas Scenic Area Arrive in Altay City in the morning, take a short break, and head to Kanas Scenic Area. Once inside, take the sightseeing bus to Kanas Lake. In April, the lake is partially frozen, creating a mesmerizing blue and white spectacle😃. Enjoy some freshly baked naan for lunch; its crispy crust and fragrant aroma are irresistible😋. In the afternoon, stroll along the lakeside boardwalk, admiring the surrounding snow-capped mountains and forests, and breathe in the fresh air. Spend the night in a cozy cabin within the scenic area, falling asleep under the tranquil night sky. Day 2: Kanas Scenic Area (Guanyutai - Three Bays) - Hemu Village Ascend Guanyutai in the morning for a panoramic view of Kanas Lake. The morning light shimmers on the water's surface, and you might even catch a glimpse of the mythical "lake monster." Savor hand-pulled lamb for lunch at the scenic area's restaurant; the tender and flavorful meat is a true delight. In the afternoon, visit the Three Bays of Kanas (Shenxian Bay, Moon Bay, and Wolong Bay), each showcasing breathtaking colors as the light changes. Continue to Hemu Village, where the Tuvan village, bathed in the evening glow, offers endless photo opportunities📷. Day 3: Hemu Village - Return Trip Spend the day in Hemu Village, exploring the wooden houses, experiencing horseback riding, and immersing yourself in the local culture. Visit the Harden Platform for a bird's-eye view of the village. Enjoy a Kazakh lunch of milk tea and baursaki; the rich tea paired with the crispy baursaki is a perfect combination. In the afternoon, pack your bags and head back, filled with wonderful memories. 🌟【5 Must-Visit Attractions】 📍Kanas Lake: Xinjiang's iconic landmark, renowned for its color-changing waters, lake monster legends, and unparalleled natural beauty. 📍Hemu Village: A Tuvan settlement, a primitive village where wooden houses, smoke from chimneys, and grasslands create a poetic scene. 📍Guanyutai: The best vantage point for overlooking Kanas Lake, offering panoramic views of the lake and mountains. 📍Three Bays of Kanas: Shenxian Bay with its morning mist, Moon Bay shaped like a crescent moon, and Wolong Bay resembling a dragon lying in the water, each possessing unique charm. 📍General Mountain Ski Resort in Altay City (end of the ski season in April, but still an option): Experience the thrill of Altay's snow and ice, and enjoy skiing on powdery snow. 📌【Practical Tips】 🎫Book tickets for Kanas Scenic Area and Hemu Village in advance, especially during peak season. 👗Temperatures in Altay are low in April, so pack warm clothing, including a down jacket, and waterproof, non-slip snow boots. Don't forget sunscreen. 📸The lighting is ideal for photography in the early morning at Kanas Lake and in the evening at Hemu Village. Remember to bring a portable charger. 🍜【Local Food Recommendations】 🥘Naan: A traditional Xinjiang staple, available in various flavors like sesame and onion. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and keeps well. 🍜Hand-pulled lamb: Lamb boiled in plain water and sprinkled with salt, preserving its natural flavor and tender texture. 🥣Milk tea: A daily beverage for Kazakh and Mongolian ethnic groups, rich and savory, often enjoyed with dairy products and naan. 🐟Burqin grilled fish: An Altay specialty, grilled until golden brown and seasoned with cumin and other spices. The fish is tender and juicy. 🥔Baursaki: A traditional Kazakh pastry, similar to a donut, deep-fried until crispy, and often dipped in jam or milk tea. 🏨【Hotel Accommodation】 📍Kanas Scenic Area: Wooden cabin hotels within the scenic area offer an immersive nature experience, with stunning views right outside your door and stargazing opportunities at night. 📍Hemu Village: Unique homestays in Hemu Village provide a glimpse into Tuvan life, with the sounds of birdsong and mooing cows in the morning. 📍Altay City: Hualing Hotel Altay offers a prime location, convenient transportation, and comprehensive facilities for a comfortable stay. 💖【Travel Experience】 My three days in Altay felt like a journey into a wonderland of snow and greenery.

Don't miss this hidden gem; start planning your Altay adventure today💕.

In the last few days of 2024, I took a trip to Xinjiang on a whim. Ever since I started learning to snowboard during the pandemic, I've longed to visit Northern Xinjiang. After hesitating for a week, a friend's words, "When else will you have such a long vacation to go to Xinjiang?!" ignited my desire to just go! - Kanas was our second stop in Xinjiang. After experiencing the beauty of the sunset at General Mountain, we drove for 5 hours the next day to Kanas. We knew that Kanas and Hemu hadn't had snow for a long time before we went in the winter of 2024, but we were super lucky that Kanas ushered in a long-awaited snowy day on the day we went! - On the way into Kanas, passing through Moon Bay, Fairy Bay, Crouching Dragon Bay, and Kanas Lake, it was really beautiful. Under the sunlight, ice and snow were filled with water mist. At the frozen Kanas Lake, I spent CNY 20 to experience a horse ride around the lake, which was really fun!! - Perhaps because of the snow, the actual temperature wasn't too cold. However, it is more important to pay attention to slip resistance when going down to the lake to take pictures. Otherwise, you will keep falling. Be sure to choose snow boots with good slip resistance. After all, it hurt just watching the girls in the group wearing non-slip snow boots fall and doubt their life!!
