Qiongkushitai Grassland

　　It is situated near the Kalajun Grassland in Tekes County, Ili, Xinjiang, in an area called “Qiongkushitai,” which means “large platform” in the Kazakh language. The over 100-meter-deep gullies of Qiongkushitai Grassland resemble the troughs of ocean waves, stretching layer upon layer into the distance. The vast flat plateau in front of the mountains is covered with lush green grass, and countless gullies cut vertically across the plateau, painting the serene grassland like waves rising from the sea—an extraordinary display of dynamic beauty.

　　The vast and boundless Qiongkushitai Grassland seems to have stopped time. The fresh and natural breeze gently brushes away the fatigue of every visitor from afar with its simple touch. Sheep and horses are scattered across the grassland like stars, while the wooden houses dotting the landscape, white yurts, and the snow-capped mountains in the distance form a breathtaking highland grassland scene. Following the movie “The River,” Xinjiang Film Studio’s next major production, “Flower,” began filming here in this beautiful Qiongkushitai Grassland in May.
