Located about 13 km (8 miles) east of Turpan, Grape Valley is the best summer resort due to its shady and cool weather, sweet grapes and hospitable locals. Grape valley is not far from Flaming Mountain, but the weather is indeed as different as two worlds! Escaping from the dry heat of Flaming Mountain and walking along this 8 km-long (about 5 miles) fertile green valley, you may feel you are in grape heaven! Water piped from Tian Shan Mountain flows freely in Grape Valley. Various types of grape can be seen everywhere within the valley. Beautiful Uigur girls in their colorful ethnic costume perform intoxicating and exquisite local dances. You can also visit local families and enjoy the delicious local food.
