Burqin-Kanas-Jiadengyu

#summervacay
After breakfast, I loaded my luggage neatly into the car and hurried to the hotel entrance - I was thinking about the sea of ​​flowers I saw when the bus passed by yesterday evening! Some group members said that they were fake flowers before, so I took advantage of the free time before the morning gathering to find out. When I got closer, I saw that these unknown flowers were in full bloom, and they were definitely real flowers!

At 9 o'clock, we set off from the Burqin Birch Forest Jinrun Hotel and headed straight for the "God's Back Garden" - Kanas! The journey took about two hours. The scenery along the way was very pleasing to the eyes. The driver was very kind. When he saw a particularly beautiful scenery, he stopped the car and asked us if we wanted to take pictures. Of course, everyone responded in unison: "Take pictures!"

Arrived at the Kanas Tourist Service Center, we had lunch first. The tour guide introduced several self-funded projects: taking a boat to tour Kanas Lake, visiting Tuva people, and Yunxiao Peak Cableway, which cost 400 yuan. After lunch, we immediately took action and lined up to take the shuttle bus into the scenic area. This ride lasted for an hour. After getting off the bus, we still have to walk a short distance to the lakeside dock to board the boat.

The scenery of the lake cruise is really beautiful! However, the experience on the boat is just so-so: there are three seats in a row, and only the window seats have the best view and the most comfortable scenery; the first row is especially not ideal, the space is a bit crowded, and it is hot in the sun. Before getting off the boat, everyone took a big group photo happily.

Then we went to visit the Tuva family. The host warmly treated us to tea and candied fruits, and introduced their history and culture. The best thing was their song and dance performance, which was really wonderful and everyone was very excited!

Finally, we had to take the shuttle bus back to the service center. On the way back, we could see the famous "Three Bays" (Shenxian Bay, Moon Bay, and Wolong Bay), with great scenery. Unfortunately, we were a bit rushed, and the bus only stopped briefly at the viewing platform. We didn't have time to get off the bus, so we could only take a quick glance on the bus.

Then, we changed to our own bus and went to the nearby Jiadengyu Birch Forest Resort Hotel to check in. After that, we walked to "White Birch Kitchen" for dinner. It was already past 10pm after dinner, but it was still light outside! We bought some ice cream. #travel #Ürümqi #naturalwonders
