Photography guide for Xinghua Valley:

Due to the overall direction of Xinghua Valley facing south and its antler-like overall structure, Xinghua Valley in Xinjiang is 1 hour after sunrise. An excellent layering effect can be formed in 2 hours, so this is the best time for photography.

Xinghuagou, located at the southern foot of Awulal Mountain in the Ili Valley, is affected by the overall climate environment of the Ili Basin, with a humid climate and abundant water vapor. In addition, the open horseshoe-shaped valley to the south not only shields the northwest mountain wind, but also embraces the abundant sunshine from the southeast, forming a semi-enclosed small environment. Thanks to this, more than 30,000 acres of original wild apricot forests can thrive to this day.
