Statistics show that there were more than 8.6 million tourist visits to the city in the first six months of this year, an increase of more than 60 percent compared to 2019, while revenues also grew nearly 20 percent.
For self-driving tour enthusiasts, the Dushanzi-Kuqa Highway, which winds through the Tianshan Mountains that separate northern and southern Xinjiang, is a must-see. Due to erratic weather conditions in winter, the road is only open to the public during the summer, but that only increases the desire to take advantage of the opportunity to drive this beautiful road.
