Chapter 489 The Beauty of Kanas
"Good afternoon, everyone. It is now 5: in the afternoon. After two days of riding, I have arrived in the Altay region from WLMQ.

This time I did not book a hotel in Altay city, but went directly to Hemu Scenic Area near Kanas.

There is a large village inside the Hemu Scenic Area. I heard that you can feed eagles there, so I stayed in Hemu tonight.

It’s still early, and we might be able to take photos of the sunset over Hemu today, so let’s not waste time and quickly enter the scenic area!”

Qin Yuan was riding a bicycle and looking at the camera and said that since entering the Altay region, the scenery along the way has become magnificent.

It is no exaggeration to say that Altay is a paradise on earth. You can take beautiful photos in any corner.

No wonder so many people fly thousands of kilometers from inland to come to Altay. It must be said that the scenery here is worth it.

“Everyone, the beautiful scenery you see through the camera now is just the daily life in the Altay region. I have to say, this place is really beautiful!

I have been watching other bloggers online promoting Altay, and I always felt that they were exaggerating a bit.

But now that I have come to Altay, I just want to say that what they said is right, it is really beautiful here! It is said that Hemu Scenic Area is even more beautiful.

Hemu Scenic Area is a scenic area in Altay Prefecture, located in Hemu Village, Hemu Township, Kanas, BEJ County, Altay Prefecture.

About 30 kilometers east of Kanas Lake is a small village inhabited by Kazakhs and Tuvans.

Most tourists will visit Hemu Village and Kanas Lake Scenic Area together when traveling in northern Xinjiang.

So I am the same, I will stay in Hemu Scenic Area today, and spend a day visiting Kanas tomorrow. "

Not long after, Qin Yuan successfully arrived at the Hemu Scenic Area. Since this is a popular tourist destination in northern Xinjiang, there are many tourists.

Fortunately, it is not the peak tourist season now, so although there are many people, it is not overcrowded.

After finding the local B&B owner, Qin Yuan successfully checked into a cabin at a reasonable price of 680 yuan per night.

"After more than an hour of hard work, I finally entered Hemu Village and lived in a small wooden house. My small wooden house is at the back of the village, so as soon as I open the window, I can see the snow-capped mountains in the distance.

I have to say, this feeling is really great. The blue sky, the snow-capped Mount Asimali, and the green village are just like a fairy tale. It’s all so dreamy!
Let’s go out for a walk while it’s still early. All the houses in Hemu Village are simple wooden houses.

These small wooden houses are scattered in the valleys between the mountains. Local ethnic minority compatriots are working in the yards. It looks very quaint and quiet.

The river in front should be the Hemu River. The water is light blue and as clear as a mirror. It is so beautiful.

The village is not big, and the main road is about two or three kilometers long. Walking in the village is like walking in a small town.

Let’s go to the observation deck on the other side of the Hemu River. I heard that you can take a panoramic photo of the village from the observation deck.

I'll see if I can take a photo of the sunset here later. There are snow-capped mountains and grasslands in this place, and the setting sun will definitely make you cry."

As Qin Yuan spoke, he led the Husky towards the observation deck. The hillside where the observation deck was located was not high, so it didn't take long for him to reach the top of the observation deck.

As he had seen on the Internet, the observation deck really gave him a panoramic view of the entire Hemu Village, which was very beautiful.

"What a beautiful scenery. Sitting here, listening to the wind and looking at the beautiful scenery is simply the most wonderful enjoyment in life."

Qin Yuan found a small deserted corner on the lawn not far from the observation deck, and then the man and the dog just lay quietly on the lawn and looked at the sky.

The scene was quiet and peaceful, just like a painting.

Qin Yuan stayed near the observation deck until after 10 o'clock in the evening. After taking pictures of the sunset, he returned to the village. After having a quick meal at the village restaurant, he returned to his room and began editing the cycling video.

Because Li Wanru was by his side for the past two days, he hadn't had the energy to update the cycling video. Now that Li Wanru is gone, he naturally has to make up for it.

It took him two hours to finally edit a 2-minute video.

This episode of the video mainly talks about what he saw and heard in Turpan, as well as the process of his visit to several scenic spots in Turpan. The content of the video is quite rich and not at all boring.

After finishing editing the video, he released it directly, and then fell asleep because he had to go to Kanas tomorrow!

With the release of the cycling video, his group of fans at home and abroad were once again excited, and the terrifying popularity of the video once again topped the hot searches.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the next morning.

Qin Yuan began to take stock of the system's gains as usual.

[Congratulations, the cycling video you released yesterday caused a huge sensation on the Internet at home and abroad.

This caused the number of fans on your domestic platform to surge by 100 million, and the number of fans on foreign platforms to increase by 50. Currently, the total number of fans on your domestic platform is 7480 million, and the total number of fans on foreign platforms is 1500 million.

Based on the above achievements, 120 reputation points will be awarded. 】

After taking a quick look at the system's results, Qin Yuan exited the system. He then quickly packed his luggage and had breakfast in the village. After eating, he rode his bike to Kanas.

"Hello everyone, it is 7: in the morning. I have left Hemu Scenic Area and am heading to Kanas immediately.

Kanas is located in the middle section of the Altai Mountains, bordering Longguo, Kazakhstan, Russia and Mongolia. The scenic area covers an area of ​​10030 square kilometers.

The core essence of Kanas National Scenic Area is the intense erosion of glaciers. The ice and rock surface blocked the valley and formed a final surface ridge that turned into a lake.

The lake surface is 1375 meters above sea level. The lake is crescent-shaped, 24.5 kilometers long, 1.9 kilometers wide on average, and 90 meters deep on average.

With a maximum water depth of 188.4 meters, an area of ​​6.9 mu and a water storage capacity of 40 billion cubic meters, it is one of the deep-water lakes in Longguo.

There are 55 scenic spots of various sizes in Kanas Scenic Area, which belong to 33 basic types, mainly including Kanas National Nature Reserve.

Kanas National Geopark, Baihaba National Forest Park, Jadengyu National Forest Park, Kanas River Valley, Hemu River Valley, and Naren Grassland.

There are eight natural landscapes and three cultural landscapes that are famous both at home and abroad, including Hemu Grassland, Hemu Village, Baihaba Village, and Kanas Village.

The main attractions are Kanas Lake, Wolong Bay and Taiga Forest Corridor, so these three places are what I will focus on today.

As for places like Hemu Valley, Hemu Grassland and Hemu Village, we had already visited them yesterday, so we skipped them today.

"Okay, no more nonsense, Kanas, here I come." Qin Yuan said, and pedaled hard towards Kanas. It was only about 30 kilometers from Hemu Village to Kanas, so it didn't take long for him to arrive in Kanas smoothly.

Kanas is known as the 'God's Back Garden', which shows how charming this place is.

The more charming it is, the more tourists there will be. Qin Yuan asked himself if he had arrived very early.

However, there was still a queue of hundreds of meters long at the entrance of the scenic spot. If it were normal times, Qin Yuan would just leave without even taking a look.

But this is Kanas, one of the most famous attractions in the Altay region and even in the entire Western Regions, so he had to queue up and wait to enter.

"As expected of a place called 'God's Back Garden', there are really a lot of tourists here! More than twice as many as the Hemu Scenic Area.

Fortunately, I set off early today and am now in line more than 50 meters away. I will be able to enter the scenic area smoothly in about half an hour.

If you come a little later today, I estimate that you will have to wait in line for several hours. I suggest that friends who are going to Kanas should be mentally prepared. "

After waiting for the sightseeing bus at the entrance of the scenic area for half an hour, Qin Yuan successfully entered the scenic area.

"Okay, I'm already in the car. Kanas Scenic Area is very large. It's impossible for you to visit every corner of the scenic area in one day, so I'll just pick a few more famous places to visit.

The most famous of them is naturally Kanas Lake, which is the core essence of Kanas National Nature Reserve.

As I said before, Kanas Lake is one of the deep-water lakes in our Dragon Country, with an area of ​​6.9 acres, which can be said to be extremely huge.

The deepest point is 188.4 meters, which is a very terrifying depth. It is rumored that there is a water monster in Kanas just like the Loch Ness abroad.

However, the identity of the Loch Ness monster has not been revealed yet, but the monster in Kanas Lake seems to be a Taimen salmon.

The Taimen is a ferocious carnivorous fish with a huge body, the largest of which is larger than two adults. It mainly feeds on small fish, wild waterfowl and other animals.

Although the identity of the water monster has been found out, Kanas Lake became popular in the beginning precisely because of the legend of the water monster.

So I have a suspicion that someone is using the experience of the Loch Ness Monster to deliberately promote Kanas Lake.

But to be honest, Kanas Lake is really beautiful. Even if there is no water monster, it is still worth coming to see.

Kanas Lake is surrounded by lush coniferous and broad-leaved mixed forests, which are connected to the vast mountain grasslands, like a beautiful blue ribbon.

When talking about Kanas Lake, we have to first talk about the origin of its name.

According to legend, when Genghis Khan led his tribe on the Western Expedition, they passed by Kanas Lake. While resting by the lake, Genghis Khan, who was extremely hungry and thirsty, scooped a mouthful of water from a container and drank it.

After drinking it, Genghis Khan asked in surprise, "What kind of water is this? It is so sweet and delicious." The guard beside him immediately replied, "This is the Khan's water, that is, the water from Kanawhas Lake."

Genghis Khan was very surprised, so he immediately named the lake "Kanas Lake".

But legends are legends after all, and we can only regard it as a reference.

In Mongolian, "Kanas" means a "beautiful and mysterious" lake, so the name of this lake has a very good meaning.

The blue lake that appears in front of you now, like a ribbon, is Kanas Lake. It is really beautiful!
It is worthy of being called the 'Back Garden of God'. The scenery here is really like a fairyland. It is worth the trip!"

Standing on the high observation deck, Qin Yuan couldn't help but sigh. After carefully taking pictures of the entire picture of Kanas Lake, he continued to the next attraction - Wolong Bay!
"The attraction I want to visit now is Wolong Bay, which is located on the way from BEJ County to Kanas, 140 kilometers away from the county seat and 10 kilometers away from Kanas.

The lake is surrounded by dense forests, colorful flowers and green grass. There is a beautiful island in the lake. There are huge rocks in the middle of the lake where the water enters the lake. The waves hit the rocks and jade beads splash.

There is a wooden bridge spanning the east and west at the outlet of the lake. Standing on the bridge, to the north is the mirror-like Wolong Bay, and to the south is the roaring Kanas River.

About 1 km north of Wolong Bay along Kanas River, you will see a blue crescent-shaped lake in the canyon, which is Moon Bay.

Qin Yuan once again turned on the tour guide mode, and while walking along the plank road, he gave a very serious introduction.

For more than an hour, he visited Wolong Bay and Moon Bay, and then took a sightseeing bus to the next attraction - the Taiga Forest Corridor.

"The place I am in now is called the Taiga Corridor, which refers to the coniferous forest area near the pole bordering the southern edge of the tundra.

The term refers to the boreal forests of the cold temperate zone, which occur across North America and northern Eurasia in the cold temperate zone of the Northern Hemisphere.

This has formed a vast and boundless sea of ​​forests, constituting the world's largest forest ecosystem.

The Taiga Corridor is 4.5 kilometers long and is rich in the essence of the Western Siberian Taiga. The corridor borders the sparkling Kanas Lake to the west.

With towering mountains to the east and winding paths along the way, you can see many attractions such as the typical Taiga swamp, the King of Taiga, and the giant root carving wall.

Therefore, this is a very suitable scenic spot for strolling. I suggest you bring your significant other to such a scenic spot. Just thinking about it is so romantic! "

Qin Yuan walked in the corridor for more than two hours. After seeing the beautiful scenery inside, he went to the final attraction - the Fish Viewing Terrace.

“It’s already past 5pm, it’s time to go to the next attraction, which is also my last attraction in Kanas.

The name of this attraction is Fish-Watching Terrace, which is a must-visit attraction in Kanas. Fish-Watching Terrace was built in Sahara-Laid-In at an altitude of 2030 meters.

The mountain top, which means "Camel Peak" in Mongolian, has a vertical drop of more than 600 meters to the lake surface.

Because it is located in the best position to observe the "lake monster", it was named Fish-Watching Pavilion. After reconstruction, it was renamed and the pavilion was changed into a platform, so it became Fish-Watching Platform.

As to why it is called Fish-Watching Terrace, there are three reasons.

First, if a pavilion is called a platform, the top of the pavilion must be larger than the bottom platform. However, in this reconstruction, the bottom platform is larger than the top pavilion, and the platform is larger than the pavilion, so it should of course be called a platform.

Second, the pavilion is suspected of being self-enclosed, while the stage is open to the outside world, which is in line with the requirements of the progress of the times.

Third, compared with the two words "ting" and "tai", the homophony is very particular.

For ordinary people, a pavilion is for stopping and a platform is for lifting. I spend money to travel in order to seek happiness and good luck, so why should I stop instead of lifting?

Who doesn’t want to make progress in life and achieve success in career after traveling in Kanas?

Again, looking up at the Fish-Watching Platform from the lake at the bottom of the mountain, it looks like an incense platform sitting upright on the Western Hills.

If the sky is shrouded in clouds or the sunset glows, the incense stand will be filled with clouds and mist, and auspicious clouds and fairy air will be everywhere.

These three reasons are exactly why calling a station is better than calling a booth.

The Fish Viewing Pavilion is the best of all Kanas attractions. It is the only best platform where one can stop and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Kanas. I certainly cannot miss it.”
