夏塔古道景区

Xiata is a river valley shaped by meltwater from Tianshan glaciers and is associated with the historic mountain pass and is now visited via a managed corridor. Meadows and forests lead to distant ice and snow, not an easy glacier walk; older routes on the network may pass through areas closed by rivers, weather or protection.

伊犁州博物馆

The Yili Prefecture Museum provides context for understanding a river valley shaped by grassland passages, Silk Road exchanges, Qing governance, agriculture, and multiple ethnic groups. Exhibitions of archeology, fabrics, metal tools and local history prevent the grassland trip from leaving only deserted scenery and vague era.

喀赞其历史文化街区

Kazanqi is a neighborhood where Yining still lives, with colorful courtyards, mosques, workshops, restaurants and tree-lined lanes intertwined. Some courtyards are open to tourists, but a large number of residences are still private spaces, and access rights must be determined on a door-to-door basis.
