Advance reservations must be made through the “One Mobile Phone Tours Xinjiang” platform or with the travel agency’s assistance.
Core attraction highlights:
Kanas Lake:You can take the shuttle bus to Fish Watching Terrace to overlook the panorama, or hike the Three Bays (Fairy Bay, Moon Bay, Wolong Bay) to photograph the morning mist.
