Reviewed By KodoDrummer - Yekaterinburg, Russia

The main attraction for me is Keketuohai UNESCO Global Geopark, also known as, Xinjiang Rare Metals National Mine Park, located at No. 9 Jianshe Road, cocoa Sea town, Fuyun County, Xinjiang. Interesting to see the open pit mine.

Flaming Mountains (Huoyan Shan)

Reviewed By KC_Melbourne - Melbourne, Australia

The Flaming mountain was renown for its red color, but it wasn't very red on the day I visited. Red mountains are not unique to this place in China. However this place is now populated with statues of the Monk, monkey and pig in the legend of " journey to the west". Visit before peak season if you can.
