Ili Apricot Valley | Meet the Most Beautiful April

At the beginning of April every year, the Ili River Valley begins to enter the rhythm of spring. The Apricot Valley, located in Turgen Township, Xinyuan County, also ushers in the most charming season of the year. This place, located in the hinterland of the Tianshan Mountains, is surrounded by mountains and undulating hills. The green grassland and the pink sea of flowers blend together, forming the ultimate beauty of April.
From Ili to Xinyuan County, you can take a bus at the Ili Prefecture Bus Station, which takes about three hours. There are also many commercial vehicles at the Xinyuan Bus Station that can take you to the Apricot Valley Scenic Area.
The apricot trees are basically located on the mountains, so you need to climb the mountains when you come here. The current apricot blossoms are in full bloom and are beginning to wither slowly. The wind on the mountain is relatively strong and the light is also very strong.
