The mysterious "Tianshan Grand Canyon" is a canyon in the Tianshan branch of the Keqilia Mountain, formed by red-brown rocks after hundreds of millions of years of wind and rain. The red-brown mountain group of "Tianshan Grand Canyon" is directly inserted into the sky, and under the sun, it is like a cluster of burning flames. The fascinating aspect of the "Tianshan Grand Canyon" lies not only in its majestic and precipitousness, but in its deepness, tranquility and mystery.

The first time I contacted the Populus euphratica forest, the Populus euphratica tree was really chic. The leaves are like willow and like poplar trees and grow on a tree at the same time. There are many sand date trees in this garden. The garden is large. There are many flowers. The color of the flowers is gorgeous. The bathroom in the park is super clean. There are lots of walking trails.
