Nalati is a stop worth making a special stop on the Ili grasslands. For 2 days and 1 night, between the sky grasslands and the river valley grasslands, encounter the unique atmosphere of Nalati.
Before even entering the depths of Nalati, the aura of the aerial grasslands had already arrived. From afar, seeing that scene, even the fatigue from traveling quietly soothed it, making one want to stand a little longer.
The river valley grasslands are the most captivating part of Nalati. Walking along its veins, every corner hides a different expression, stretching time and space here.
Avoiding crowds, you slip into the snowy spruce, and Nalati reveals its true form. Old people, alleys, stoves, and laughter all settle in your memory before the sights do.
After nightfall, the Kazakh pastoral songs of Nalati turn on, and the warm yellow glow turns the grandeur of the day into gentleness. Sitting down and doing nothing is also a form of arrival.
When leaving Nalati, you feel a bit reluctant, but what plays in your mind is the airborne grasslands. But it is precisely this reluctance that proves this trip was worthwhile—it quietly left a part of itself with you.
