Southern Xinjiang In-Depth Exploration:Complete Guide to Small Group Carpooling and Customized Vehicle Custom Tours✨
[Detailed introduction to the route or destination]
Southern Xinjiang, a land accounting for about 40% of Xinjiang’s total area, is famous for its magnificent landscape of “half flame, half sea.” In 2026, it not only retains the profound history of thousand-year-old cities, but also incorporates the stunning experience of natural wonders. From the shifting dunes of the Taklamakan Desert to the snow-capped mountains and glaciers of the Pamir Plateau; from the intangible cultural heritage handicrafts of Kashgar Old City to the treasure-hunting journey along the Yulong Kashgar River in Hotan, every corner of Southern Xinjiang exudes unique charm.
🌄 Core landscape highlights:
Taklamakan Desert Highway:Crossing the world’s second-largest shifting desert, the entire route is paved in 2026, with 4 viewing platforms along the way where you can photograph the magnificent juxtaposition of desert and poplar forests.
Pamir Plateau:Muztagh Ata, White Sand Lake, and Karakul Lake form the “Three Plateau Scenes,” and a permit must be obtained in advance (the travel agency can assist). The Panlong Ancient Road is fully open, and 7-seat business vehicles can pass smoothly, with 6 viewing platforms along the route.
Kashgar Old City:Upgraded to a “museum without walls,” with Id Kah Square, century-old teahouses, and Craftsman Street open for free, and two opening ceremonies daily at 10:30 and 18:00 (no performance on Mondays).

Clothing suggestions:The temperature difference between day and night in Southern Xinjiang is large, so bring a thin down jacket, sun-protective clothing, and comfortable sports shoes. The nighttime temperature on the Pamir Plateau can reach 0℃, so it is recommended to bring a windbreaker.
Photography equipment:For the desert highway, it is recommended to bring a polarizing filter to reduce reflections; for the Pamir Plateau, bring a telephoto lens to photograph the snow mountains.
Special reminder:In summer 2026, the average daily temperature in Southern Xinjiang is 30-38℃, so carry heatstroke prevention supplies such as Huoxiang Zhengqi water. Obtain consent before photographing people of various ethnic groups, and no loud noise is allowed inside.
