Yizhao Highway is one of the most beautiful self-driving roads in Xinjiang, with many beautiful and spectacular scenery along the way. So where are the starting point and ending point of Yizhao Highway, and where is the most beautiful section of the road? Let’s embark on this road together and take a look.
1、 Starting Point and Ending Point
The starting point of Yizhao Highway: The intersection of the new area on the south bank of the Yili River in Yining City and the plain forest farm, and the ending point: Muzart Port in Zhaosu County.
The total length is 212 kilometers. The Baishifeng mountain section of Yizhao Highway is beautiful, but this section is close to water and cliffs, with as many as 187 bends, and heavy rain, snow flurries, and dense fog often occur.
2、 The Most Beautiful Section
The most spectacular section of Yizhao Highway is Duwusun Mountain, a thrilling mountain road with countless 360° turns, a scenic avenue. The white clouds are so low that you can almost touch them, and you are easily lost in the snow mountains, forests, grasslands, and streams along the way. The main peak is 3475 meters above sea level, Baishifeng is the highest peak on the ridge of the Wusun Mountains, three peaks are connected in a series, arranged nearly east-west. The peak area is steep and dangerous, with steep cliffs on all sides, the north slope being the steepest, and the peak top is relatively open. This peak is composed of Carboniferous gray limestone, which appears gray-white from afar, hence the name Baishifeng. It is also called Shayanhada in Xibe language, which also means white peak.
Driving along the winding mountainside, the scenery is beautiful, and there are beautiful views everywhere, as if you are traveling through the clouds. Yizhao Highway is a winding mountain road that has been gradually improved in recent years. The road winds through the mountains, with many bends and steep slopes, which is very dangerous. Only when the road is slightly flat and relies on the solid safety bulwarks can you safely enjoy the beautiful scenery along the road. Because Wusun Mountain belongs to the Tianshan Mountains, the scenery is also magnificent and diverse: towering peaks, deep ravines, alpine meadows, towering pines, and picturesque scenery along the way, truly infinite scenery in dangerous peaks.
