Grape Valley |
![]() |
| Looking at the Flaming Mountains in the distance from | |
| the city of Turpan, one can see nothing but glowing, | |
| barren red sand. But the Grape Valley of the Flaming Moun- | |
| tains, 15 kilometers from the city center, is a world | |
| of unique beauty, presenting a striking contrast with | |
| the
hot, dry and barren outside. | |
| grass and graced with green trees, the valley is a | |
| world of green with brooks, canals and sparkling springs. | |
| There is a poetic flavor to the idyllic beauty of the | |
| valley. Scattered everywhere in the valley are trees: | |
| mulberry, peach, apricot, apple,pomegranate, pear, fig, | |
| walnut, elm, poplar and willow; also watermelons and muskmelons, making the valley into a "garden of one hundred flowers" | |
| in spring and an "orchard of one hundred kinds of fruits" in summer. In the valley there is a reception center where dense | |
| grapevines
interweave with each other and winding paths lead to secluded places with
clusters of grapes within easy reach. | |
| 8
kilometers long, half a kilometer wide and inhabited by about 6,000 people
of the Uygur, Hui and Han nationalities, | |
| the Grape Valley has more than 400 hectares of cultivated land, 220 hectares of which is grape-growing area. Grapes | |
| growing in the valley are of several strains, including the seedless white, rose-pink, mare-teat, black, Kashihar, | |
| bijiagan
and suosuo. There is a fruit winery producing several kinds of wines and
canned grapes. | |
