The Nanshan Mountain Scenic Area is located at the northern side of the Tianshan Mountains to the south of Urumqi. The area boasts snow-capped mountain peaks, vast grasslands, green forests, running waterfalls and massive rocks in various shapes and sizes. The major attractions include Miaor Gully, Shuixi Gully, Zhaobi Hill, Banfang Gully, Eastern and Western Baiyang Gullies, Daxi Gully and Gangou Gully. It is cool here in summertime and therefore makes a good place to get away from the usual summer heat.
