avatarNokia Eighta year agoThis is a very worthwhile day trip in a valley, with a bus and then with another bus. You are rewarded with beautiful views to a snow covered mountain range. Horse riding and hiking is rather popular with tourists.
avatar强哥6 years agoXiata in Zhaosu, Xinjiang, also known as the Tang Monk Ancient Road, is the most precipitous passage on the Silk Road. It crosses the Muzart Pass on the main ridge of the Tianshan Mountains. More than 30 kilometers away from the gorge is the Xiata Hot Spring, with a water temperature between 42 and 64 degrees Celsius, which has a good health-care effect. Going up the Xiata Gorge for 20 kilometers, the misty snow-capped Muzart (ancient Turkic, meaning Bingda Pass) peaks are in front of you. It is said that this is the only way for the famous "Gongyue Road" in the Tang Dynasty, and the "Lingshan" that Xuanzang crossed on his way west is here. There are many stone stairs along the gorge, which are the remains of the ancient road. Other wonderful attractions include the grassland stone men, the large-scale Wusun ancient tombs and the ruins of the ancient city of Xiata, which are distributed on the alluvial plain formed by the Xiata River.
