Selimu Lake Winter Lake Circuit Guide + Tips

Selimu Lake in winter is quiet and beautiful, with few tourists, perfect for a leisurely stroll and check-in. Winter lake circuit guide: - ✨ Selimu Lake Tips: After entering, turn left and go counterclockwise around the lake for a better visual effect! Sunrise is around 10:30 AM; on clear days, you can see the pink alpenglow on the mountains (visible near the entrance!) For photos at the S-shaped curve, navigate to "Songshutou," then drive another two kilometers along the road to reach it. For self-driving tours, it’s best to rent a four-wheel-drive vehicle, as most roads are icy and snowy; regular two-wheel-drive cars may not be suitable. - ✨ Must-visit check-in spots at Selimu Lake - Santai Ancient Post Station, enter from the east gate and drive one kilometer to the left, where the lakeside is already frozen. Kele Yongzhu and Xihai Grassland are places where swans gather in winter. The wild "S" bay, head from Dianjiangtai towards Xihai Grassland! At night, Selimu Lake is filled with stars; choose places with less light pollution to capture stunning starry sky photos. -

Exploring snowy Xinjiang? You’re in for a treat ⛄️✨ The combo of epic winter scenery and a super chill, beautiful hotel totally made my trip. If you dream of post-card sunsets, modern vibes, and waking up to outdoor cultural wonders—read on! Must-See Places in Sunny Xinjiang: 1. Sunrise/Sunset Spot Catch the dazzling sunrise or sunset for that golden hour wow factor – ask your hotel for the best local viewing spot! 2. Modern Architecture Marvel Walk the area to find architecture that’s all vision and glass—get your Insta-shots! Tip: Snap close-ups of cool buildings for your feed. 3. Local Outdoor Cultural Landscape Explore nearby outdoor spots for a real taste of local culture and fresh air. Insider tip: If you spot a car with funky graffiti and a Malaysian shoutout (“Malaysia TEAM Come Here!”) in the hotel parking lot, that’s legit travel story material. Where to Stay: Definitely book the chill and beautifully designed hotel I stayed at (ask Trip.com for top picks near sunrise/sunset viewpoints). The vibe is stylish but totally relaxed—ideal for winter coziness. Getting Around: Rent a car right from the hotel or use local taxis; parking is hassle-free. Foodie Tips: Don’t miss the traditional breakfast served at the hotel (think warming soups and Xinjiang pastries—perfect after snowy mornings). Quick Tips: Pack layers—the sun may shine but temps drop fast. Most big hotels have English-speaking staff and can help with local directions. Final thoughts: If you’re heading to Xinjiang for snow, innovation, and chill vibes, this hotel is your go-to. Super recommended! #XinjiangVibes #SnowyViews #TravelChina #SunsetMagic #Tripcom
