NO.4 Shuimogou Park(水磨沟)

Located 5 kilometers northeast of Urumqi City, Shuimogou Park is a famous scenic area inside a 1-kilometer-long canyon formed by a previous earthquake rupture. Surrounded by Qingquan Mountain, Shuita Mountain, Hongqiao Mountain and Wenquan Mountain, the park boasts green forests, colorful flowers, lakes and rivers, as well as temples and pavilions. Its most appealing feature are the hot springs scattered across the mountain. With an average temperature of 28-30 degrees Celsius all year round, the springs are good helpers to relieve any skin conditions or arthritis.
