The Most Beautiful Grassland | Nalati Grassland

➡️ Nalati Grassland, one of the world's four major grasslands, is unbelievably beautiful, a national-level tourist resort, and a national 5A-level tourist scenic spot. The traditional pasture of the Wusun people, the emerald of the Ili River Valley, a secret realm that no description can exaggerate. 🛖 The name Nalati originates from Mongolian, and it is said that during Genghis Khan's western expedition, a Mongol army passed through the grasslands of Tokesun and Bayinbuluke to gather in the Ili River Valley. They traveled along the southern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, and in midsummer, the mountains were still shrouded in snow and cold. The Mongolian officers and soldiers, hungry and cold, were all exhausted. Unexpectedly, after crossing a pass (in Mongolian: mountain ridge), they suddenly saw the clouds part and the sun shine brightly, revealing a flat plain with blooming flowers and babbling streams, as if they had entered another world. The soldiers felt immediately refreshed and couldn't help but exclaim in unison: 'Nalati, Nalati...', which in Mongolian means 'the place that first sees the sun', later transliterated as 'Nalati'. Thus, an evocative place name was born and has been passed down to this day. 🏕️ Great beauty of Xinjiang! Great beauty of Ili! Great beauty of Nalati!!!
