Star and moon icon✨ [Altay Northern Xinjiang 5-Day Customized Vehicle In-Depth Tour:Full Cost Breakdown for 13-Seat Business Vehicle Mid-Autumn Kanas]
In September, as autumn deepens, Kanas and Hemu in Altay usher in the most gorgeous season of the year. Golden birch forests, emerald-like lakes, and Tuva villages shrouded in morning mist form the most moving autumn picture of Northern Xinjiang. If you plan to visit during the Mid-Autumn holiday (September 15-17), choosing a 13-seat business vehicle customized trip can both meet the comfort needs of families or small groups and allow flexible itinerary changes to explore lesser-known secret places. Below is a practical guide newly compiled in September 2026 to help you plan a worry-free Northern Xinjiang autumn journey.
1. Route Highlights: Northern Xinjiang Autumn Colors Interwoven with Nature and Culture
[Kanas Lake]🌲
Rated as “China’s most beautiful lake” by Chinese National Geography, Kanas in September sees the lake water change with the light into colors such as blue-green, dark green, and sapphire blue. Take the shuttle bus to visit the “Three Bays” (Fairy Bay, Moon Bay, Wolong Bay), hike along the wooden boardwalk to feel the forests dyed in autumn colors; climb the Fish Watching Platform to overlook the panorama, or take a boat tour on the lake to observe up close the traces of the legendary “lake monster.”
[Hemu Village]🏡
Known as a “private plot,” Hemu is a primitive village inhabited by the Tuva people. In the early morning, climb the Harden viewing platform to watch cooking smoke and morning mist dance together; in the afternoon, stroll through the birch forest and listen to the rustling fallen leaves; in the evening, taste hand-grabbed meat and milk wine in the wooden houses of the village and experience the traditional life of various ethnic groups.
