Xinjiang's Ili region boasts picturesque mountains and clear waters, lush grasslands and forests, and azure skies and pristine waters. In particular, Xinyuan County features 8.34 million mu of high-quality natural grassland and is known as the “Pearl of the Grasslands.” It is home to one of the world’s four major subalpine meadows, including the 5A-level natural scenic area Nalati Grassland, renowned as the “Grassland in the Sky”; the world’s second-largest and Asia’s largest primeval wild fruit forest; and the largest surviving primeval apricot forest from the Middle Ages. It has been hailed by experts from the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences as a natural repository of nectariferous plants. Ili produces 40% of Xinjiang’s comb honey, making it the top-producing region in the country. Xinyuan County lies within Xinjiang’s black bee zone.
