Imagine driving from snowy peaks to blossoming meadows, all before lunch. The Duku Highway cuts through the Tianshan Mountains from north to south, offering a microcosm of spring, summer, autumn, and winter in a single journey. 🌸🌞🍂❄️
But this beauty has a schedule: it's only passable for four months each year. Outside that window, heavy snow turns the highway into a winter wonderland you can only admire from afar.
When Wusu city rolled out the red carpet for the highway’s reopening ceremony, choreographer Mayila Yasin and folk activity organizer Yu Fang stole the show with vibrant performances, giving travelers a taste of local culture before they hit the road.
Mark your calendar for September 24, 2025: CGTN’s new production "A Tale of My City: Wusu" premieres, shining a spotlight on the city that anchors this epic drive. Get ready to explore Wusu’s hidden treasures and the communities that make the Duku Highway so unforgettable. 🎥✨
