For example, Nalati Grassland requires online reservation 7 days in advance, Kanas Scenic Area requires real-name ticket reservation 3-5 days in advance, and Sayram Lake individual tickets need to be purchased 1-3 days in advance. After registration, staff will assist with the reservation procedures for all scenic areas, and passengers only need to provide valid identity information.
