The Jiayuguan Jiuquan Airport is set to launch a new route starting June 11 to connect Korla, Dunhuang, and Jiayuguan cities. Flights operate every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.

Dunhuang

Thousands of years away, Dunhuang retains its magnificent allure. The Mogao Grottoes, Mingsha Mountain, and Crescent Moon Spring continue to enchant visitors. It will be a good choice to gather some friends to Dunhuang, being immersed in a journey where nature offers a profound spiritual renewal.

Jiayuguan

Nestled between Qilian and Heishan mountains, the ancient Jiayu Pass served as a critical juncture along the Silk Road. It witnessed the bustling commerce and rich cultural exchanges of ancient times.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Jiayuguan city and its neighboring cities became industrial powerhouses, contributing significantly to the nation's economy. The dedication of workers from across the country transformed this historic city into a modern economic center in Gansu province.

At present, Jiayuguan features a stunning oasis landscape, with ice and snow introduced from the Qilian Mountains.

Korla

In Uyghur, "Korla" means "looking out." The city is known for its abundant fragrant pear production.

Korla fulfills all fantasies about China's western region. It is surrounded by snow-capped mountains, deserts, lakes, and grasslands, with the Peacock River flowing through it. Modern high-rises and extensive road networks blend western region style with contemporary fashion.

On summer nights, the Swan River Scenic Area comes alive with activity. Painted boats glide along the river, offering passengers a picturesque experience. Visitors can enjoy musical fountain displays, listen to world-famous music on the boat.
