When it comes to Burqin, some people may not know it, but when it comes to the colorful beach of Danxia landform, everyone must know it! It's a very famous place, it's a worthwhile trip, and I don't know what is really shocking until I come here. I really can't find a very appropriate word to describe her beauty because of its uncanny beauty.

The place in Xinjiang is really too big, so that we rushed all the way and arrived at the colorful beach after 6 o'clock in the evening. Fortunately, the sunset in Xinjiang was very late. Arrived at the scenic spot after 6 o'clock, the sun has already set to the west, but the entrance of the scenic spot is still crowded with people, and the wind turbines around the scenic spot are lined up one by one. It can be seen that the wind here is sufficient, and only such a geographical environment can create such a scene.


As the sun sinks, the light gradually becomes softer and softer. At this time, the colorful beach is more colorful like a yellow robe. The colorful beach at sunset is definitely worth the ticket price. There is a river separated by two banks, and there are two heavens, one side is Populus euphratica forest, and the other side is Yadan landform. Friends said that the sunset at Wucai Beach is the check-in time for major tour groups, so there are a lot of people during this time period. It is the first time we have seen such a scene on both sides of the river. The north bank is the Yardang landform formed by the impact of the river and the erosion of the strong wind. The difference from the Devil City is that the Yardang landform here is cliff-like, because Adjacent to the Irtysh River, the rock formations on the river bank have different wind resistance and uneven surface contours. The main scenic spot is the Aktubek Cable Bridge.

Here is a friendly reminder: go to the colorful beach in the evening, it is not suitable to wear skirts, you must remember to bring mosquito repellent, as soon as it gets dark, the long-legged mosquitoes will stick to you directly, and you can't get rid of them! We were so scared that we ran and rolled back to the car.

Under the decoration of the setting sun, different minerals in the rocks change into various colors because of different varieties, mainly red, slowly transitioning from orange, yellow, white and black, and reconciling in the color system, hence the name. Colorful beach.

After the sun goes down, don't rush to leave. Stay and wait for the change of skylight, the sky looks like macarons when the sun rises. Looking at the two sides of the strait at this time, there is no light decoration, and there is more peace and harmony. After losing the light of the setting sun, the colorful beach has restored the original roughness of the Yardang landform. The exposed rock surface records every ray of wind blowing from the Irtysh River.

After seeing so many blockbusters of Colorful Beach, I believe many friends would like to know its specific location. Colorful Beach is located in Burqin County, Altay Region, at the northern tip of Xinjiang. It is located on the first and second terraces on the north bank of the Irtysh River, which is the only one in my country that flows into the Arctic Ocean. It is 480 meters above sea level. It is also the only way to go to Kanas Lake Scenic Area. On April 13, 2018, it was shortlisted for "100 Magical Northwest Scenes".

Indeed, in this magical place, people get up earlier than usual. Early in the morning, we met many aunts with silk scarves in concave and graceful shapes. Before we set off, we were still joking about whether we should bring bright red silk scarves for a day. Then we can learn concave shapes from these aunts.

Personally, I think that when the sun shines in the morning and evening, the color of the colorful beach will be more vivid and more beautiful. The sun at noon is too strong and too white, and the colorful colors are not so obvious. Play another big movie~

Colorful Beach is a must-see to Kanas. It is said that "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was also filmed here. Thanks to the absence of industrial pollution, the sparkling Irtysh River can be seen running through a jungle under the blue sky, and the barren gray-yellow mountains in the distance form a sharp contrast with the dark green valley.

If you are not personally on the scene, it is hard to imagine that there will be such a beautiful and spectacular Yardang landform hidden in the borderlands of the vast Gobi desert and the vast snow-capped mountains and grasslands. It was already 9:00 p.m. Beijing time when we came out of the colorful beach. Tourist buses were parked outside the scenic spot. The hustle and bustle of tourists made people feel uncomfortable. It was only after getting on the bus that we left the scenic spot that we breathed a sigh of relief!
