Guided by our professional guide, you will delve into the history of the park: since 1958, nearly 400,000 military and civilians have planted trees together, turning the former barren mountain into a scenic spot today with a green coverage rate of 97.5%. The guide will explain the origin of the name "Hongshan" (the cliff at the western end is composed of Permian reddish-brown sandstone), introduce the legend of the pagoda built on the top of the mountain in 1788, and the 270-million-year-old ancient cod fossils found in the scenic area. Climbing to the top, you can overlook the Bogda Snow Peak of the Tianshan Mountains and the entire urban landscape of Urumqi. The guide will also point out the best viewing positions for you and share the development and changes of the city.


After the tour, we will smoothly head to the next stop - Xinjiang International Bazaar, with a driving time of about 20-30 minutes to achieve seamless connection between scenic spots. As a national AAAA-level scenic spot, it is a folk resort integrating tourism, ethnic trade, catering and ethnic art display, known as the "Window of Xinjiang". The guide will take you to appreciate the architectural characteristics integrating Islamic, Central Plains, Uyghur and other styles, introduce the construction history of this bazaar built in the early 21st century with a construction area of 90,000 square meters, and the changes of the Erdaoqiao area from an ancient commercial thoroughfare to a folk gathering place today.

The guide will assist you in completing the museum appointment in advance (you need to provide relevant information cooperatively).
