[Nalati Grassland | A poetic oasis at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains]

The Nalati Grassland, located in the Ili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture of Xinjiang, is known as the "Switzerland of Xinjiang." It is a vast alpine meadow nestled in the Tianshan Mountains. Its carpeted grasslands, dotted with wildflowers and filled with melodious pastoral songs, create a captivating scene that inspires longing.

In spring and summer, the grasslands are awash in emerald green, with herds of cattle and sheep grazing leisurely and herders moving between yurts, radiating a rich sense of ethnic charm. Strolling through the grasslands, the fresh air and expansive views soothe the soul, as if time has slowed to a crawl. In autumn, the grasslands bathe in golden light, and the scenery, set against the backdrop of the snow-capped peaks of the Tianshan Mountains, is even more spectacular.

Nalati also offers a wealth of outdoor activities, such as horseback riding, hiking, and photography. As night falls, the sky is dotted with stars, and pitching a tent to enjoy the tranquility of the grasslands at night is a rare and refreshing experience.

🌿 Traveler's Notes:
• Best time to visit: June to September, when the weather is comfortable and the scenery is at its peak.
• Essential equipment: Sunscreen, a windproof jacket, and comfortable hiking shoes. • Featured Experiences: Horseback riding on the grasslands, stay in a Mongolian yurt, and enjoy ethnic song and dance performances.

Nalati Grassland, a breathtaking natural landscape, is a perfect place to experience Xinjiang's diverse ethnic cultures and magnificent scenery.
