Welcome to Ili, a hidden gem in Xinjiang, the Chinese mainland – an epic poem written in snow and grass. ❄️🌾
In every gust of wind through the Tianshan forests, you can feel stories and heartbeats weaving their way into the landscape.
Take the old Kazakh craftsman who still keeps saddle-making alive. His hands shape leather into saddles that echo centuries of nomadic life. 🐎
Or meet the young Uygur who has fallen in love with stand-up comedy, turning open-air squares into stages of laughter with fresh punchlines. 🎤😂
From the soaring peaks of the Tianshan range to endless grasslands, Ili is where nature and culture become one. Every poem here feels like a breath of crisp mountain air or the soft sway of tall reeds under a golden sunset. 🌄✨
Let Ili's verses spark your wanderlust and remind you that the best poetry is written by life itself. 🌍✈️
