People often say nature favors Switzerland, but only when you witness Jiangbulak can you truly grasp the profound meaning of "nature's divine craftsmanship." Jiangbulak is a national forest park, a 4A-level tourist attraction, and recognized by the Chinese Academy of Sciences as one of the most well-preserved oasis ecosystems. Covering 48 square kilometers, it stands as a key scenic area along the ancient northern Silk Road, featuring expansive dry wheat fields, the mysterious Tianshan Slope, the ancient Han Shule City, wooden walkways, and Black Lake. The attraction boasts exceptional natural resources, blending majestic landscapes, historic cultural sites, and vibrant ethnic traditions into a distinctive and picturesque destination. It offers both globally rare natural wonders and uniquely shaped mountains and waters, drawing countless domestic and international visitors each year. Today, Jiangbulak has become a renowned brand in Xinjiang's tourism industry and a premier leisure resort. What does Jiangbulak look like in your eyes? Some describe this picturesque natural scenery as "Van Gogh's wheat fields meet Monet's haystacks." Yet even the brushes of master painters might not capture all the beauty here. The attraction allows self-driving entry, camping, and pets. Visitors can also bring pets to the check-in area at the attraction's visitor center. Introduction to main sub-attractions: Tianshan Wheat Sea: One of the spectacular wonders of Jiangbulak. For thousands of years, it has rested gracefully in Jiangbulak, captivating visitors with its breathtaking beauty. Located in the Tianshan Mountains at an average elevation of 1,700m in the foothills and rolling hills, it forms a stunning contrast with the snow-capped peaks. Tianshan Mystery Slope: Nature's craftsmanship creates this wonder regardless of seasonal changes. Witnessing and experiencing the Mystery Slope not only brings surprises and amazement but also accompanies every visitor with an air of mystery, inspiring them to ponder and explore the marvels of nature. Majestic Canyons: The chill lingers only at dawn and night, while the radiant snowscapes are but fleeting glimpses of Jiangbulak's many splendors. Summer and fall take center stage here. Bask in the cool, gentle breezes as you marvel at the emerald grandeur of mountain ranges and the awe-inspiring beauty of Tianshan Canyons.Qitai · 47.5 km from downtown

Jiangbulak is breathtakingly beautiful. Although you can see snow-capped mountains and wheat fields along the mountain road, it makes sense to fence off the scenic area and charge admission. Speaking of which, the admission fees for scenic spots in Xinjiang are really reasonable, and they are all very well maintained and clean. Compared to many 5A-level scenic spots in inland China, the value for money is much higher.

Jiangbulak Shule City is worth a visit. The vast grasslands combined with the ancient city architecture make it a great spot for taking photos during the day, and the night view is enchanting, allowing you to immerse yourself in the unique charm of this ancient city in the Western Regions.

Tianshan Wheat Sea is one of the important scenic spots in Qitai Jiangbulake Scenic Area. It is located in the front mountain and hilly area with an average altitude of 1,700 meters. It is the only wheat field in the world with the highest and largest wheat field. Its dry land planting area is as wide as 200,000 mu, and the main scenic area of Jiangbulake alone has nearly 50,000 mu. The farmland on Tianshan Mountain is infiltrated by rainwater and does not need to be watered, so there is a saying in the local area that "dry land is not early, and it depends on the weather for food." In 2015, it was awarded the title of "Important Agricultural Cultural Heritage of China" by the Ministry of Agriculture of China. Especially in summer and autumn, the grasslands, snow-capped mountains, canyons, forests, and wheat fields are colorful and beautiful. It is worth a visit.
