Wuerhe Ghost City

Also known as the "Wuerhe Wind City", the Wuerhe Ghost City, is located 100 kilometers northeast of Karamay city and covers an area of about 30 square kilometers. It is a region with unique wind-eroded geological feature.

It gets the name of "Wind City" because of the frequently howling winds. It is also known as the "Ghost City" due to its eeriness. The weathered rocks are shaped in various weird forms such as human bodies, demon's faces, birds and fishes and so on. At night, when strong wind blows, sand flies and stones rolls, making terrible and frightful noises.

Admission fee: 30 yuan
