West of the lli River Valley, lies a strange place.The mystery is revealed from above,The inspiration comes trom the Bagua – the Eight Diagrams, Seven decades ago. the magistrate of Tekes fitted 20 cows with ploughs,Starting from the centre. they sketched out the first streets in Bagua Town.
The town today ties eight main roads linked by four loop lines,Especally in winter
the humans in the Ili River Valley need help with their hunting,It’s a tradition among Kazakhs to train golden eagles to hunt
Golden eagles are among the fiercest birds of prey on the planet , The vast, two-metre wingspan makes gliding easy.Golden eagles also have excellent vision – eight times sharper than any human’s,And swooping at a speed of nearly 320 kilometres an hour.they make it virtually impossible for any prey to escape
The Sayram Lake to Guozigou Highway was Xinjiang’s first major mountain road, It crosses many precipitous valleys, none deeper than Guozigou. This is the main route from Ili to northern Xinjiang, Beyond the bridge.the next major landmark is Sayram lake
A cycle race takes place around the lake every year as spring turns to summer,The cyclists follow a beautiful route through the mountains, until they reach Sayram Lake
Sayram Lake was created by movements of the Himalayas,As mountains rose, basins have formed along the fault lines.In time, one of these basins filled with water,became the Sayram Lake
But no fish could survive here – only a few micro orgasms,Eventually people succeeded in raising cold water fish in the lake, The fish, in turn, attracted birds in search for food.
In the desolate desert of northern Xinjiang,we hear the call of the wild.It’s a plece of ghost cities chiseled out by Nature ,alongside one miracle city built by Man,In Kalamaili,We’ll chase a willd ass faster than wolves, and search for the last wild horse species on Earth.
Ghost cities are found in various parts of Xinjiang, Strong winds have ravaged the terrain for centuries, shaping the rocks at will,The result is the unique landscape of Yardang, Devil City on the Sea lies on the east shore of Jili Lake.
Life is drawn here by the lake’s water, Birds have made their home in the cliff caves,300 kilometres further into the Junggar Basin.another devil city comes into sigh. With lush vegetation and water, this place used to be a paradise for animals
Life that existed billions of years ago is now dark, sticky and priceless petroleum,The extraction of the petroleum gave rise to a city in the Gobi Desert,Karamay.
