Day 1 Urumqi
Urumqi Airport Pick-up

Welcome to beautiful Xinjiang! After airport pickup, you'll be transferred to your hotel for the day and free at your own leisure. If time permits, you can visit recommended attractions on your own (separate transportation not included). The driver and steward will notify you of your departure time the next day via text or phone. Please check back.

Day 2 Kashgar
Lobu Village

Searching for the last "fishing tribe" in the Xinjiang desert, the Lobu people are one of Xinjiang's oldest ethnic groups (with the erosion of modern civilization, only a few relics can be found now). They live by the small lakes along the Tarim River. They "don't grow crops or raise livestock, but rely on fishing in small boats for food." Going deeper, you can see large tracts of poplar trees along the Tarim River and see part of the vast Taklamakan Desert, "China's largest desert." Admire the magnificent Taklamakan Desert, a vast expanse of water.

Day 3 Kashgar
Urumqi - Lobu Village - Yuli/Korla

Golden and crispy, with a fragrant wheat aroma, Kuche big naan is a Xinjiang memory on your tongue! From the richness of meat naan to the crispness of oil naan, from the softness of nest naan to the sweetness of sesame naan...each one is an ultimate temptation to the taste buds. Special arrangement for the naan making experience

Day 4 Kashgar
Yuli/Korla - Kizilya Grand Canyon - Experience the Memory of Kucha (Restan Street/Menbazaar/Huamao Alley/Kucha Alley) - Kuqa

[Kiziliya Grand Canyon] Scenic Area, one of the few canyons in southern Xinjiang where you can drive yourself, you can stop and go as you please, without the trouble of transferring to other buses. The scenic spot of Kyziliya was formed in the Cretaceous landforms of the Mesozoic Era 140 million years ago. After millions of years of wind and rain erosion and the careful carving of nature, it has formed today's magnificent spectacle of ravines and mountains.

Day 5 Kashgar
Aksu-Kashgar Old Town (Ancient Town: Rainbow Alley/Budai Alley/Century-old Teahouse/Mosque)-Kashgar

In the ancient city CITYWALK: Rainbow Alley - Navigate "Meet Love at the Corner" and you will arrive at Rainbow Alley, which is colorful, like an overturned palette. The graffiti and colorful colors on the wall are unique, telling their stories to every visitor.

Day 6 Kashgar
Kashgar - Baisha Lake - Karakul Lake - Tree Hole Highway - Taheman Wetland - Stone City Golden Grass Beach - Tashkurgan County

Baisha Lake, a scenic spot on the Pamir Plateau, is known as "White Sand Lake." Like a blue gem, it stands atop the plateau. From afar, it appears azure, while up close, it resembles a emerald green lake, like the Maldives. Behind it, the graceful, rolling White Sand Mountains rise. The white sands gleam metallically in the plateau sunlight, while the emerald waters reflect the snow-capped mountains. Against the majestic Pamir Plateau, Baisha Lake resembles a gentle maiden, guarded by the flanking Kongur Jiubie Peak.

Day 7 Kashgar
Tashkurgan County - Panlong Ancient Road - Bandir Blue Lake - Kashgar

The Panlong Ancient Road is locally called the Waqia Highway. The entire winding mountain road has more than 600 bends and a total length of 75 kilometers. The highest altitude is about 4,100 meters. The perfect combination of the black road and the earth-colored mountains, plus the continuous snow-capped mountains in the distance, can only belong to the Pamir Plateau. After going through all the detours in life today, life will be smooth from now on.

Day 8 Kashgar
Kashgar Airport drop-off

We will arrange drop-off at the station (flight ) according to the flight/train schedule. Happy times always pass quickly, and now it's time for us to say goodbye. We hope that this short trip to Xinjiang will leave you with good memories and we look forward to seeing you again.
