Almost overnight, with various social networking sites such as circles of friends and Short Video platforms, a beautiful road became popular on the Internet and became a new Internet celebrity road. Many people couldn't believe their eyes.


They even doubt whether it really exists. It is the Panlong Ancient Road in Xinjiang, located in Wacha Township, Taxkorgan Tajik Autonomous County (Ta County), Kashgar Prefecture, Xinjiang, also known locally as the Wacha Highway.

This road was newly paved with asphalt in June this year and was only put into use in July. It greatly facilitates the travel of farmers and herdsmen in mountainous areas. The winding roads and magnificent addresses have formed a unique scenery for everyone who comes through here. Can't help but take photos.

There are more than 600 S-bends with a total length of 75 kilometers and many bends at 180 degrees or even 270 degrees are called for the Nujiang Route 72 turn and the Qinglong Route 24 turn on the Yunnan-Myanmar Highway.

The Panlong Ancient Road hovers around the Pamirs about 4100 meters like a huge swimming dragon. The dark asphalt road is perfectly combined with the colored mountains, coupled with the continuous snow-capped mountains in the distance. Such a magnificent sight only belongs to Pamirs. According to legend, Xuanzang has also walked through it since then. It is a historical road that crosses the Kunlun Mountains. Now it has become the "electrocardiogram" in the Kunlun Mountains. There are no nine twists and eighteen turns, only two turns left and right.

Magic, surprise, mystery, spectacular and exciting, these more than 600 corners reflect the wisdom and hard work of the designers and pavers. When the old driver saw the ecstasy, he couldn't wait to set off immediately to feel the roar of the car's climbing engine and the surge of adrenaline. Although the scenery is beautiful when driving on corners, you should be careful not to turn your head upside down and look cool and elegant!

Warm reminder: Walking on the Panlong Ancient Road, automatic transmission cars must change to manual low gear when going down long slopes to reduce the dangers of brake pads burning and brake failure.
