Desert Park
           The Camel Bell Dream Slope Desert Park lies on the southern edge of the Gurbantünggüt Desert in the Junggar Basin. It is a pristine, rugged, and boundless desert world, as well as a natural desert botanical garden. Here, lush saxauls, dense populus euphratica trees, fragrant jujube trees, gracefully feather-leaved needlegrasses, the "ugly-beautiful" sowthistles, medicinally valuable rhubarbs and cuscutas, the tinkling camel thorns, and the gnarled, deer-horn-like phoenix trees, along with strikingly crimson tamarisks, together form a spectacular natural landscape full of color, scent, sound, and visual splendor.

          149 species of psammophytes from 89 genera and 24 families thrive here with remarkable resilience. The green saxauls, thick populus euphratica trees, fragrant jujubes, feathery needlegrasses, tinkling camel thorns, antler-like phoenix trees, and the vividly red tamarisks all combine to create a stunning natural wonder that engages the senses of sight, smell, sound, and more. In addition, the park is home to a large population of Class I protected animals, including wild boars, goitered gazelles, wolves, foxes, jerboas, and many other species such as the "baby-headed snake," totaling hundreds of varieties.

        At the Desert Park, visitors can climb sand dunes, trek across sandy seas, and embark on hiking adventures. They can also ride the “ships of the desert,” enjoying the melodious sound of camel bells while taking in the magnificent desert scenery. The park also offers activities such as sandboarding, target shooting, watching desert sunrises and sunsets, and joining bonfire parties, making the desert experience rich, colorful, and truly memorable.
