🌄 Route Highlights:Crossing the Tianshan Mountains from north to south, unlocking the secrets of the Pamir Plateau
The vastness of Xinjiang never fails to amaze. As the Anyi Hao special train slowly departs from Chengdu/Lanzhou, a 16-day journey into the Western Regions begins. This route not only connects classic attractions such as Tianchi Lake in the Tianshan Mountains, Kanas Lake, and Sayram Lake, but also goes deep into the heart of the Pamir Plateau, taking you to hidden gems like Baisha Lake, Golden Grass Beach, and the Stone City. Whether you are a photography enthusiast, a nature explorer, or a lover of culture and history, you will find your own inspiration on this journey.
📜 Core Scenery and Cultural Highlights of the Route
【Geographical Location and Seasonal Advantages】
According to the latest 2026 data, the best time to visit the Pamir Plateau is from June to September. During this period, the plateau climate is mild, the waters of Baisha Lake are a brilliant blue, and snow-capped mountains are reflected on the lake surface, creating a stunning picture of “half white sand, half lake.” The Anyi Hao special train is specially scheduled during this period to avoid the harsh winter and sandstorms, ensuring maximum comfort.
【Key Photo Spots】
▪️ Baisha Lake:The “pearl” of the Pamir Plateau. The lake water takes on a unique Tiffany blue due to its mineral content, and the white sand on the shore is as fine as snow. Every shot you take is a masterpiece.
▪️ Golden Grass Beach:In autumn, the Golden Grass Beach is dyed golden by the sunlight, forming an oil painting with the distant snow-capped mountains and nearby yurts.
▪️ Stone City Ruins:The ruins of the capital of “Puli Kingdom,” one of the 36 kingdoms of the Western Regions. The broken walls tell the story of a thousand years of prosperity and vicissitudes.
▪️ Karakul Lake:The “Black Lake” at the foot of Muztagh Ata. The lake water changes color with the light, from deep blue to dark green, making it the best spot to observe the “Three Heroes of the Kunlun Mountains.”
