Northern Xinjiang took my breath away with its endless natural beauty. While I’d heard of Kanas Lake, discovering Hemu Village, the picturesque Saramy Lake, and the vibrant Wucaitan Danxia formations added so much more. Urho Ghost City’s mysterious landscapes and the relaxing, scenic spots around each lake made every day exciting. This area is an absolute paradise for nature lovers!

Dunhuang’s stunning desert and artistic treasures made for an unforgettable experience! The Mogao Caves were filled with remarkable historical art, while the desert landscape offered the thrill of camel riding and hiking up the sand dunes.
