There were several domestic long-distance self-drivings in the past two years, and there was no systematic record and arrangement.
This time, I will list the self-driving tour of Northern Xinjiang in June 2018.
This trip is for three people, starting from Shanghai, taking the train to Urumqi, renting a car and driving, the model is Langyi.
A total of 34 days of travel, 28 days of car rental, per capita cost: car rental fee of 1215.33 yuan, refueling 1103.57 yuan along the way, toll 385 yuan, accommodation fee 1887.5 yuan, the ticket fee is not more than 300 yuan (by photographer The card is free of charge. The transportation is 1,300 yuan, totaling 6191.4 yuan (excluding meals). The whole journey was relatively smooth, basically achieving the purpose of taking the ancient Silk Road in the Western Region, and the harvest was great.
The lessons must be learned: When the vehicle was picked up, the vehicle's driving license was not reviewed, resulting in two police officers issuing a violation order along the way of the expiration of the driving license. Although the car rental company bears the consequences, a series of processing procedures bring a lot of trouble and consume a certain amount of energy.
Specially reminded friends who rent a car to remember to review the vehicle driving license!
One, the car sees
From the train, Z40 times, Shanghai - Urumqi. The lower bunk is 680.5 yuan, and now the online ticket purchase is 60 years old and above automatically.
The first time I took a long-distance train, the condition was much better than expected, and the bed was changed, neat and orderly. The bathroom is long with hot water and the toilet has no smell. The flight attendants work dedication, cleanliness, and service standards. The whole car was full of people, no sense of noisy, and it was very quiet.
I am very comfortable with this kind of travel environment. I can eat and sleep, and I have a few TV series in love. I have a chance to follow the drama.

Neat Cars
Go to the train window in the west to make a good dream for the upcoming South Xinjiang self-driving.
Second, Arrived in Urumqi
After 10:30 in the morning, arrive in Urumqi Station, total driving 39 hours. On the day of arrival, the climate plummeted and the sand was heavy. Have a good check-in and go to the car rental point to pick up the car, and use lunch. After two days of using the train, the travellers couldn't wait to improve. They ordered the large-scale chicken to be told to use a large portion (small 60 yuan, large 100 yuan). As a result, the two large plates could not be eaten. Finally, the store Deliberately sent a large packing box, brought back to the hotel to continue eating in the evening and still can not finish, the first task after the car to go to the supermarket to shop, there are cars, there is food, prepared, and not worried.
Three, Urumqi
The original first day of the trip was very easy, but it was not expected to leave at 9:00 am until 11:00 pm. From Urumqi, through the Turpan Bula, visit the ancient city of Gaochang, visit the Bodhi Creek Thousand Buddha Cave, Sahuan Kumutag Desert, and stay in Shanshan. The content is very rich and it feels wonderful along the way. What is intoxicating is the exchange with the warm and hospitable Uighurs in Brake Village. It’s true that the grapes in Turpan are still not ripe, and we have already melted our hearts by the enthusiasm of the Uighur sisters.
A lot of times, the excitement of the journey is really not in the five-star scenic spot, but in the moment of encountering the impact of the soul.

Between the mountains of the Flame Mountain Scenic Area in Turpan, there is a road that is not open for a long time. The end of this road is In the wood ditch gorge behind the flaming mountain, in addition to burning into the mountains of the bonfire, there are a number of grottoes built in the Southern and Northern Dynasties to the Tang and Yuan Dynasties, earlier than Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes.
On the way to Thousand Buddha Caves
Because the long years of the Thousand Buddha Caves have not been effectively protected, especially after the introduction of Muslims, Buddhist caves tend to Debilitating, fortunately, after liberation, it was attached to the list of nationally protected cultural relics in 1982. These precious caves were finally effectively protected.
To visit the Thousand Buddha Cave tickets for 40 yuan, 60 or more no discount. Photographs are not allowed in the cave.
V. Kumatage Desert
The second time I came to Turpan, this time I chose to stay in Shanshan, just to see the Kumutage Desert. This desert is famous for its close contact with the city. We specially took the desert surf car to the commanding heights to enjoy the beautiful scenery like a cream cake. I have been playing until it is dark. Tickets for the scenic spot are 40 yuan, half-tickets over 65 years old, 30 yuan for scenic cars and 150 yuan for surf cars. The ticket sales stopped at 8:00 pm and the clearance began after 9:00.
Six, Muqam Heritage Center
The car can be driven in. There is a more spacious parking place. Of course, people in the car must go down to the security check.
Enter the lobby, on the left is the exhibition hall about Muqam, wooden card Mum is an art culture handed down from the ancient Western region. It is rich in expression and expresses different contents through music, dance and narrative poetry.
When we went, we just caught up with a performance, basically the team Look at the guest, full of games. The performance time is not long. After coming out, I went to the "Uygur Embroidery Pavilion" on the right to visit. It is very exquisite and has been applied for the national intangible cultural heritage. The hand-embroidered patterns on the exhibits are really beautiful.
<VII. Hami Museum
Hami Museum and Muqam Heritage Center in a land area, building The exterior is very regional and aesthetically pleasing. It is free to enter the tour and there is security check at the door. The size of the museum exhibition room is not very large, but the content is very rich, and the display type is also very novel. The most innovative thing is that the stones are on the plate. It is more and more like, it is too fresh, and I can’t help but shoot them one by one. Next, on the WeChat, there is a dish of real food.
8. Crossing Lop Nur (Hami-Milan Town)
646 kilometers, 18 hours, set a record for a single driving time in the history of self-driving. So "crazy" is to cross Lop Nur.
From Hami at 8:30 in the morning, stay at Milan town at 2:30 in the middle of the night. Lop Nur, the mysterious veil was opened by the wheel.
The high temperature along the way is unbearable, uninhabited, the terrain is dry, the traces of the crustal movement appear, and the car dealership is like a boat. There are about 8 hours of hard road along the way, security checks are severe, especially the Lop Nur post check carefully, including cell phone pictures.
There is a discussion around the topic of the Shanghai man Yu Chunshun’s tragic Trip. Today, the road through Lop Nur is complete, although the road conditions are extremely poor, but after all, it is not a fantasy.
PS: After entering the Lop Nur area, all the way is ridiculous, if you arrive in Lop Nur town After you don't stay, the road behind is very difficult to walk, so you have to control the time, don't be too greedy to stop shooting. There are accommodations in Lop Nur town and there are gas stations.
Nine, Milan ruins
After reaching Lop Nur, I arrived in Milan town at 3 am. The hotel stayed, in fact, Milan Town is the location of the 36th regiment of the second division of the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps. When I left the next day, I knew that there was a Milan ruin and I was looking for it.
The ruins of Milan are important ruins and Buddhist sites in the Han and Tang Dynasties. It is said that there are ancient cities, Buddhist temples, Buddhist pagodas, and ruins. And ancient irrigation channels and other remains. It was easy for us to find it, but we saw that the long loess in front of us was surrounded and could not enter.
Ask the surrounding staff, answering the development of the scenic spot, currently does not receive tourists. We had to peep into the nearby path and saw a watchtower. Nothing else could be seen. I don't know what scale and level of scenic spots will be developed in the future.
