Hey there, winter explorers! ❄️
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to live in a snowy mountain village? Well, let me tell you about a magical place in the Altay region of Xinjiang, China. 🏔️
Every winter, these villages turn into real-life snow globes! 🏘️✨ Covered in fresh, fluffy snow, they become the perfect spots for fun activities like skiing, snowboarding, and even cool music festivals! 🎿🎶
But here’s the best part: there’s a local hero named Abdullah Ali who’s making these snowy villages even more amazing! 🌟
Abdullah grew up in one of these mountain villages. After studying tourism management in Urumqi, the big city, he decided to come back home. Instead of staying in the city, he wanted to share the beauty of his village with the world. 🌍
He turned his own home into a cozy homestay where visitors can come and experience life in the snowy mountains. 🏠⛄ His place has become super popular on social media—people just can’t get enough of the breathtaking views and warm hospitality! 📸❤️
Every year, when the first snowflakes start to fall, Abdullah knows it’s time for his busiest season. His homestay gets booked up fast with guests excited to enjoy the winter wonderland. ❄️🏂
Thanks to Abdullah and others like him, these once-quiet villages are now bustling with visitors. This not only brings joy to travelers but also helps the local community thrive. 👫💖
So, if you ever dream of a snowy adventure, maybe one day you’ll visit Abdullah’s homestay in Xinjiang’s Altay mountains! Who knows, you might even get to build a snowman with him! ☃️😊
Stay warm and keep exploring! ❄️🌟
