The Xinjiang Birch Forest Scenic Area welcomes the most poetic moment of the year. This natural birch forest belt, located 4 kilometers west of Habahe County and near the Kanas Scenic Area, stretches about 28 kilometers long and 1.5 kilometers wide. It is the largest natural birch forest in Northwest China and is known as the "Number One Birch Forest in the Northwest." The birch trees stand 20-40 meters tall, with pure white trunks. In autumn, the leaves turn yellow and red, contrasting beautifully with the silver-white trunks and the deep blue sky, as if stepping into a European oil painting. The forest floor is covered with reddish-yellow fallen leaves, and walking through it feels like treading on poetry and romance with every step. Spring brings lush green grass and blooming flowers, summer reveals verdant trees, and winter dresses the forest in silver-white; each season offers a unique view, with autumn being the most stunning. Here, you can experience the perfect blend of nature and art, gaining relaxation and healing. Whether you’re capturing photos or taking a peaceful stroll, you’ll find your own romantic moment. Come to Xinjiang Birch Forest and encounter this autumn visual feast!
