Took a little trip to Yining, hoping to visit Sayram Lake and do the overland trip from Yining to Kucha across TianShan mountains, which was recommended by many for its wonderful sceneries. But things didn't turn out all that well. Sayram Lake wasn't that impressive as seen from the bus due to major road reconstruction by the lake, and the road from Yining to Kucha was closed to public bus at that time. Sighz... In the end, had to waste 2 days 1 night on the bus to get from Yining to Kashgar enroute through Urumqi again. Bad planning all in all, but I guess at least I learnt abit of the bus culture here in Xinjiang haha =)
