On the last leg of our journey in Xinjiang, we stayed in Yining City and took a day trip to Koksu Grand Canyon. Having visited the Nalati Grassland the previous day, we decided to explore the Koksu Grand Canyon this time.
We first took a shuttle bus to the pier and then switched to a boat to reach the next transfer point. The scenery at the dam was quite different from what we had seen in Kashgar Old City and the Nalati Grassland in the past few days.
At Crocodile Bay, you must walk down to the viewing platform. The bay, which resembles a crocodile's head, is a perfect spot for taking photos. A young man nearby was having a great time flying his drone.
The winding river with its nine bends and eighteen turns is also a great place for photography. The grasslands, rivers, blue sky, and white clouds create a stunning natural beauty right before our eyes, making for a very pleasant experience.
