This is the Yuhu-Muzi Tao Wild Luxury Resort Hotel in Zhaosu, Yili. When I open the door, the scenery outside the window instantly heals me from all the fatigue of the journey. The 52 independent guest rooms are scattered along the mountains along the bank of Yuhu Lake. The use of natural wood integrates the hotel with nature. The indoor hardware facilities are also unambiguous. The extensive use of warm colors makes it feel like home. Customized linens and bedding, various smart devices (Kohler electric toilets, Dyson hair dryers) and details also make it feel luxurious. These two words are well deserved. From the first ray of sunshine every day, the charming scenery on the canyon begins to take turns. It’s the Jade Lake against the blue sky and white clouds; it’s the sheep lazily walking by, and it’s the occasional hare that passes by; it’s the sudden shower, and it’s the charming rainbow that appears after the rain. Every moment here, the saying "life is a wilderness" is embodied. It also makes the troubles and sorrows encountered in life and work disappear. Because of this beautiful scenery, a popular movie was filmed nearby, and my eldest brother also stayed in this hotel. This is the room he stayed in, with Yuhu Lake in front of him. The hotel itself is a scenic spot, and you can enjoy the beautiful mountains and rivers without having to travel again. In your free time, you can also sit at the Xingchen Terrace Coffee Shop, which also enjoys beautiful views; or go horse riding on the grassland or take a cruise on Yuhu Lake. Yuhu Lake is like a piece of flowing Hetian jade, which makes people marvel at the uncanny craftsmanship of nature. Mountains, grasslands, lakes, woodlands, and snow-capped mountains. Instead of just watching the scenery, why not sleep in this scenery next time!

If you're choosing a flight to Urumqi Airport recently, remember to book a window seat in advance!! Because there's a spectacular view of the mountain ranges and snow-capped peaks! It's breathtaking! This was a special tip from a flight attendant before, and I'm sharing it with you today! ⚠️ Seating Strategy: The seat numbers vary by aircraft type, ✅ When entering Xinjiang, you can choose the A seat on the left side by the window, ✅ For the return trip, you can choose the J seat on the right side by the window. ✅ Before choosing a seat, look at the aircraft layout!! Try to avoid the positions near the wings!! Prefer the front and rear parts of the plane~ ✅ If you didn't manage to get one, don't worry, there are also windows reserved in the aisle between the crew and the toilets The snow mountains only appear for a short time, about 1.5-2h before reaching Urumqi, don't miss it because you're asleep~ Recently, Urumqi➡️Zhaosu, Tianjin Airlines has launched its inaugural flight! Personally tested, sitting in A or C seats allows you to see the spectacular snow mountains and grassland scenery~ ▪️📷 Photo-taking Strategy: 1⃣️ Wipe the glass clean with a wet wipe in advance 2⃣️ Remember to tap the screen to focus before taking photos, otherwise, it's easy to get a blurry picture 3⃣️ Try to choose x2 or x3 zoom to capture more details of the mountain ranges 4⃣️ Remember to turn on live mode, so you can choose the best cover angle ▪️📱 Photo Editing Strategy: It's easy to get a blurry photo through the glass, you can use the built-in photo editing features of your album to make the image clearer, the key parameters are as follows: Clarity: +15 Contrast: +15 Sharpness: +36 Color Temperature: -7 Saturation: +10 Tone: +5 Noise Reduction: +5
