URUMQI, June 1 (Xinhua) -- Northwest China's Duku Highway, considered one of the most scenic roads in the country, opened to tourists on Saturday following its seasonal closure. It was the road's earliest seasonal reopening in five years.
The 561-kilometer highway connects Dushanzi in the north of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region with Kuqa City in the south, running through varied landscapes that include canyons, glaciers, lakes and grasslands.
