🌄 [Route Highlights:A Southern Xinjiang Scroll Where Nature and Culture Interweave]
Autumn in Southern Xinjiang is the season when the golden poplar forests interweave with the vastness of the Pamir Plateau.

The itinerary follows the principle of “from low to high, scenery first then culture”: the first day adapts to the cultural atmosphere of Kashgar Old Town, the next day gradually enters the plateau landscape belt, and finally returns via the desert highway, balancing physical adaptability and landscape layering.
