Turpan Grape Valley

Grape Valley in Turpan or PU TAO GOU

One should come here in the summer. I was told that visitors are allowed to pick grapes from their vines and feast on them with wine at the valley. 

Anyhow, since we are in Turpan, it would be unwise not to pay a visit although we were advised 100x that they are NO GRAPES in the Autumn!!!

It was a surprisingly good visit. Although, I feel, one actually need a whole day to explore every site at the valley.

This photo shows clearly Turpan is a basin. Look at the botak mountain up behind. Look at how green we are down here!
