If you want to experience a unique trip in winter, then Hemu must be your best choice
Today, I will share with you a winter Hemu travel guide, so that you can spend an unforgettable holiday in this beautiful place.
🚗 Transportation
1. ✈️➕🚄, if there is no direct route, you can choose to fly to Urumqi first, and change to Y965/k9765 Snow Country Train to Altay. The tourist train departs in the evening and arrives in the morning. The whole car is sleeper. The number of soft sleepers is small and needs to be purchased in advance. The price is also more affordable. Urumqi arrives in Altay. Hard sleeper 184 hard sleeper 284. It is very suitable for friends who arrive in Altay before noon! You can go to Urumqi city for a stroll!
2. ✈️ Direct flight to Altay Snow Capital Airport/Kanas Airport. Compared with Kanas Airport, Altay Airport has good landing conditions, high flight punctuality rate, and low cancellation probability. Recently, Altay area has discounts for buying snow tickets with air tickets.
Ps: After arriving in Altay and playing for 1-2 days, you can share a car/charter a car to Hemu
🏨Accommodation
Hemu accommodation is divided into two areas: New Village/Old Village. Both the New Village and the Old Village are in the form of log cabins.
There are about 4,000 beds in Hemu.
Old Village: The most primitive village with tiles, located next to the Hemu River. The sunrise viewing platform and sunset viewing platform are all in the old village, and there are more activities to play. However, the accommodation conditions are a little older than the new village.
New Village: The new village is a newly built village to increase the reception capacity of Hemu, and the hotel facilities are relatively new.
🐑Food
1. Beijing Restaurant, the dishes are stable and the price-performance ratio is also high. I especially like their earthen hot pot, which has a heavy taste and is very suitable for people like me with heavy tastes! They can also provide take-out service.
2. Taoyuan Flavor Restaurant, their pepper chicken, scallion lamb and potato stewed beef are all very good.
3. Xuexiang Balang Restaurant, spicy chicken fried wide noodles are very delicious and the portion is also large.
4. Crazy coffee, many people go there to take photos and check in in winter.
❄️Play
Recommended activities in Hemu
Hemu has abundant snow resources and there are many activities worth experiencing! It is recommended that you spend more than 2-3 days in Hemu, so that you can fully experience the charm of the fairy tale world.
1. Snow horseback riding and horse-drawn sleigh: You can choose four routes and buy tickets at the horse team. I recommend two cost-effective routes:
- Rime Bridge, 260 yuan/person, 3 hours round trip. This route is very consistent with the scene of the Northland in "Game of Thrones", primitive forest + snowfield, and finally stop at an iron bridge, the shooting effect is very good!
- Beautiful Peak Village, 320 yuan/person, 4-5 hours round trip. You can ride a horse to explore the secluded village hidden in the mountains. After arriving, you can also drink a bowl of hot milk tea at the herdsmen's house, eat some local specialty dried fruits, and experience a fairy tale journey!
2. Snow hiking: There are virgin forests around Hemu, which is very suitable for hiking and exploring. You can really feel the quiet romance in the deserted forest! #美丽坎斯
