The Yashan Glass Walkway in Urumqi is a unique attraction where visitors can enjoy both natural and urban landscapes of the area, set against the backdrop of the region's history and culture.

Be sure to pay attention to safety when visiting and prepare clothes suitable for the weather.
Winter Trekking in Zhaoya Grassland, Urumqi...
The Zhaoya Grassland in the Tianshan Grand Canyon is located next to Zhaoya Lake, offering a serene natural setting to enjoy leisurely. Although there are museums and small restaurants near the grassland, they are closed during the off-season in winter, which might be disappointing.

It's a perfect place to walk leisurely and take photos without any interruptions, facing nature. For those dreaming of a quiet winter trip, there's no better place than this.

The Joaya Grassland in the Tianshan Grand Canyon of Urumqi is a vast land spread at an altitude of 2500m. In winter, it is covered with pure white snow, creating a landscape reminiscent of a winter wonderland. This place got its name from the history of being the land of an elder in the past. It is a special place where you can feel not only the beauty of nature but also the traces of nomadic culture. The primitive coniferous forest on the northern side of Tianshan continues around the grassland, known for preserving the purest and most marvelous natural scenery in the Grand Canyon.

Shanghai, an Asian city with a beautiful night view
I've traveled a lot, but is there another city with a night view as beautiful as Shanghai? Unique buildings that I haven't seen in other cities, and a 360-degree view of the buildings from the overpass. Enjoy a cocktail at a rooftop bar and experience a different kind of Shanghai.
China is now more easily accessible than ever before with a visa-free system. I was surprised by the relatively low cost of living and the cleanliness of the city, and it's a place I'll visit again because it even has Disneyland.
If you're planning your first trip to China, I'd like to recommend Shanghai!
Alipay or WeChat Pay is a must~!

🇨🇳Kunming UNESCO World Heritage Site Stone Forest, Feel the Wonders of Nature🪨🌳
#ChinaTravel #StoneForest
📍StoneForest,StoneForest,KunmingSilinYiAutonomousCounty
StoneForest is a world cultural heritage site located in the southeast of Kunming.
Among the magnificent and bizarre rocks,
I could feel the wonders of nature once again.

Yongdeng Temple... A local Islamic temple in Urumqi.
Yongdeng Temple in Urumqi is a small Islamic temple located in an ordinary commercial building in the city, making it difficult to notice at first glance. Although it is neither grand nor magnificent, it is a unique space where you can feel the breath of Islamic culture within its modest exterior.
This temple, which blends into the daily life of the locals, exudes an atmosphere where religious sanctity and secular reality intersect in a peculiar way. Upon entering, a quiet and solemn aura flows, bringing a sense of calm as if cut off from the outside world.
Despite its small size, the sense of reverence and warmth felt within is large and intense. This place, where I happened to stop by during my travels, felt like a small window conveying the hidden stories of Urumqi. However, as it is a local temple, it is actually not easy to visit inside.
Hantengri Mosque (Not Open to the Public)... Urumqi Mosque.
Located on Jiefang South Road in Tianshan District, Urumqi, Xinjiang, this Islamic mosque has a deep historical heritage. The mosque was first built in 1864 and has undergone several expansions and renovations to reach its current size. The architecture is unique, skillfully combining traditional Islamic art with modern architectural art to present a distinctive style. The mosque includes a minaret building, prayer hall, courtyard, and other parts, with strict layout and exquisite decorations. It is one of the important religious sites in Urumqi and a great place for tourists to learn about local religious culture and history. However, due to some restrictions on entry, it was a bit disappointing that we could only look around the surroundings.
Nanjing Road.. Shanghai.
I encountered the city's long-standing dreams and illusions on Nanjing Road. Take a stroll down this historic street lined with European-style buildings that quietly tell of past prosperity, having withstood the test of time. Sunlight filters through the leaves, and the interplay of light and shadow on the retro stone paths gives the feeling of traveling through time and space. Around the corner, chic shops and fashionable cafes create a captivating atmosphere. The fast pace of modern life is cleverly harmonized with the slow passage of time. Hidden bookstores in deep alleys exude a subtle ink fragrance between the pages, making you feel as if you've found a sanctuary for the soul. Nanjing Road is not only a shopping paradise but also a travel destination where you can experience the unique charm and warmth of this city, oscillating between history and modernity.
Near the Shanghai Cultural Museum, there is a modern village called Yuhefang.
Yuhefang is not just a place with old buildings. The cafes and galleries scattered around showcase a harmonious blend of modern sensibilities and traditional beauty. Especially, enjoying a warm cup of tea while reading a book in a cafe filled with antique furniture and items will be an unforgettable memory.
Yuhefang is not just a space to remember the past, but also a space moving towards the future. In the craft shops made from renovated old buildings, you can find unique works by young artists. Additionally, the regular flea markets add to the shopping pleasure with a variety of vintage clothes and items.
Shanghai Dongyili Yuhefang is not just a tourist spot, but a living history and cultural space.

This is Qinglong Temple!!! You need to enter 'Qinglongsi' to find it. I also searched for a long time.
This place is a drama filming location, so I wanted to visit it.
It's because it's a drama I like^^
It was a drama I enjoyed watching^^
That's how I learned about Qinglong Temple.
It was a Buddhist temple in Xinchangfang, east of Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty in China.
Currently, there are ruins in Niumiaocun, about 5km southeast of Xi'an city, and traces of pagodas and Buddhist halls were excavated in 1973.
It was founded during the Sui Dynasty and was originally called Yinggan Temple.
In the 2nd year of Jingyun of the Tang Dynasty (711), it was renamed Qinglong Temple.
Designated as a national 3A-level site!!! It is an old temple and is said to be one of the top 10 cherry blossom spots in spring.
The cherry blossoms in full bloom in spring looked beautiful in the drama, but I only stopped by briefly this time, so I decided to come back in March next year.

Yangxing Qingzhen Temple...Urumqi city mosque...
#ChinaTravel #Urumqi #洋行清真寺
This area is a no-fly zone, so I couldn't see it even with a drone, but I was drawn to the unique architecture and went there.
It wasn't as colorful as the photos, but it had another charm when I saw it in person. It has the unique colors of China's Islamic culture, so if you see it while walking around Urumqi, take a picture and feel the daily life of the people of Xinjiang.
However, the biggest regret is that I couldn't see the whole thing from a high place because I couldn't see the inside.
I don't know if there's a time when you can see the inside or if you can't go in at all.

I'll introduce you to RUXU 入续鸳鸯糖水铺, a dessert cafe that is popular with MGs these days.
The signature here is the cinnamon almond tofu pudding.
This is a pudding shop that makes and sells pudding directly with tea or milk. That's why it's not too sweet and is light and delicious.
In addition to pudding, it's also a famous egg tart shop.
Unlike regular egg tarts, the tart dough is thicker and feels more like bread, like a croissant.
It's really crispy and has a lot of cream inside. It's so soft and delicious
I highly recommend Guangzhou Dessert Hot Cafe
