The Xinhe Urban Desert and Flower Sea Tourist Project is located in Jolpanbagh Village, Tashairik Township, 5 kilometres from downtown Xinhe County. It covers a total area of approximately 3,056 mu, including 444 mu of reclaimed cultivated land. The project site stretches a maximum of 3 kilometres from north to south and 1.5 kilometres from east to west. Relying on unique desert resources and highly convenient transportation, the project builds an urban desert leisure tourism complex with sightseeing, desert experience, water recreation and other activities.
The desert experience zone contains 20 functional items suitable for visitors of all ages and backgrounds to enjoy themselves to the full. The flower sea grows more than 30 varieties of colourful flowers and seasonal fruits for tourists to admire. A rare animal zoo will also be built to popularize science among children. A small sightseeing train will take you around the whole scenic area for a fantastic visual feast.
At the Desert and Flower Sea, you can get up close to the desert and embrace nature, relaxing your body and mind. The scenic area adopts an integrated land, water and air sightseeing mode to bring you endless fun.
As a new landmark of tourism in Xinhe County, a rising star in southern Xinjiang and a promising new tourist attraction across Xinjiang, the Xinhe Urban Desert and Flower Sea warmly welcomes all visitors.
