Beauty Has a Name — Yiwu County
Nestled in eastern Xinjiang under the administration of Hami City, Yiwu is a hidden treasure tucked against the eastern Tianshan Mountains, hailed as the welcoming lounge of grand Xinjiang. It owns diversified scenery blending snow-capped glaciers, ancient poplar forests, magical color-shifting lakes, vast grasslands and desolate yardang landforms, forming a breathtaking landscape gallery unique to eastern Xinjiang.
The most iconic landmark here is the Naomaohu Populus Euphratica Forest, one of the world’s three major original poplar woods. Enduring thousands of years of scorching heat, bitter cold and raging sandstorms, poplars stand tall in the Gobi with the legendary vitality of remaining alive for a thousand years, standing upright for another thousand years after death, and never rotting for a further thousand years. Twisted trunks shaped by wind mark the traces of time; some trees are aged over 6,000 years, turning the desert into a natural sculpture museum forged by nature and history.
Symphony Lake (Huancai Lake), known as China’s Dead Sea, amazes visitors with its magical color-changing feature. Governed by sunlight, wind and rainfall, the salt lake shifts its hue between sapphire blue, tender pink, crimson red and lavender purple throughout the day and seasons. Local residents even predict weather by observing the lake’s changing colors马蜂窝. Towering Karlik Flat Glacier, the largest flat-topped glacier in Asia, wears pure white snowcaps, with snow lotuses blooming quietly at its foot. The boundless Nalenggel Grassland, mysterious yardang ghost city, singing sand dunes and primitive rock paintings jointly compose the wild, soft and magnificent natural charm of Yiwu伊吾县人民....
Beyond natural landscapes, Yiwu bears profound red memories of the Forty-Day Defense Battle. The Martyrs Cemetery inherits the revolutionary spirit of loyalty and perseverance. As an important post on the ancient Northern Silk Road, it gathers Kazakh folk customs, ancient relics and primitive geological remains. Here, desert toughness meets lake tenderness, primitive wilderness meets quiet vitality, heroic history meets mild pastoral scenery.
This is Yiwu, where every frame is a landscape painting, every gust of wind carries ancient stories. There is a kind of unmatched beauty that belongs exclusively to Yiwu.
