According to the eight trigrams orientation, eight main streets extend out from the same distance and Angle like a ray. Each main street is 1200 meters long, and a loop connecting eight main streets is set up every 360 meters or so. Because we arrived in Tex early, we had plenty of time to walk along the streets of Tex, chat with local residents, take photos, feel the local food and ethnic customs, and go to the prairie at the edge of the county to watch a sunset.

It crosses nearly ten major rivers in the Tianshan Mountains and passes over four ice dadabans covered with snow all year round. The construction of the Dukou took nine years and more than 100 officers and soldiers died there.

Every spring, when the ice and snow thaw, spring flowers, living in India, Burma, Pakistan, even as far as the Black Sea, Red Sea and Mediterranean coastal countries, whooper swans from thousands of miles away, fly to Bayanbulak to roost and breed. The vast expanse of grassland, white sheep scattered on the grassland like pearls, coupled with the snow mountains under the blue sky in the distance, give people a sense of atmosphere and cheerful. Walking up a long grassy slope, there was a picturesque scene: a slender blue river, winding into the distance. This is the Nine curves and eighteen Bays, the source of the Kaidu River, which makes the grassland rich and fertile, and also breeds the largest wetland in Xinjiang!

Tens of thousands of officers and soldiers fought for ten years to build the Duku Highway, digging a tunnel through the Dachan, where yellow sheep were afraid, and crossing the impassable mountain. The Dukku Highway is the hero’s road.

Then all the way over the Hasilegen Dasan, through the sky Falls along the highway. On one side was the jagged mountain, on the other the river. Along the way, the road is like a dragon lying on the Tianshan Mountain. Although it is only separated by a mountain, this road is the experience of "from the fire to the sea"!
