Shihezi: Oasis and reclamation

Shihezi is a stop worth making a special stop in the new military reclamation city. In one day, between the Military Reclamation Museum and General Mountain, encounter the unique atmosphere of Shihezi.

Before venturing deep into Shihezi, the atmosphere of the Military Reclamation Museum arrived first. From afar, seeing that scene, even the fatigue from traveling quietly eased, making one want to stand a little longer.

General Mountain is the most captivating highlight of Shihezi. Following its veins slowly, every corner hides a different expression, stretching time and space here.

Avoiding the crowds and slipping into Manas, Shihezi reveals its true form. Old people, alleys, stoves, and laughter all settle in memory before the sights do.

After nightfall, the oasis in Shihezi lights up, 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 Shihezi, I felt a bit reluctant, but what played in my mind was the Military Reclamation Museum. But it was precisely this reluctance that proved the trip was worthwhile—it quietly left a part of itself with you.
