📖 'Xitiya' translates to 'The Immortal Cliff' in Chinese. According to the 'Charm of Yecheng' series, it was founded at the end of the 11th century. Some believe it was the Khan's city during the Kara-Khanid Khanate. It was destroyed in 1218 during Genghis Khan's western expedition.
🪪 Ticket price: 30 yuan per person. You can either walk or take a shuttle bus to enter the scenic area, which is not very large. It takes about 40 minutes for a photo tour.
✴️ In the scenic area, 'The Thirty-Six States of the Western Regions' is recommended for everyone to see. It showcases the distinctive features of each of the thirty-six states through oil paintings, sculptures, and video animations, allowing for a greater understanding of Xinjiang's history.
🕛 The scenic area has a city gate opening performance, which takes place at 12:00 PM and 5:00 PM.
💢 The scenic area is all in earthy yellow, so fairy girls can wear bright colors to stand out in photos~
