As autumn deepens, the desert poplar forests in Makit County, northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, have gradually turned golden and entered their best viewing season, drawing droves of visitors from near and far.

Makit County is home to over 19,000 hectares of desert poplar forests. With desert poplars standing proud in the sand, and water poplars nestling along the banks of the Yarkant River, the golden foliage creates a striking autumn scene in the heart of the arid wilderness.

"This is my first time admiring the desert poplar trees up close. It's hard to imagine that poplars can take root and grow in an arid desert. The scenery is both unique and magnificent, with the desert and the poplars setting each other off. I've truly felt Xinjiang's exceptional natural beauty. It's well worth the trip," said Zhao Nanyu, a visitor from Guangzhou of south China's Guangdong Province. 

"From a distance, the poplar forest looks like a sea of gold. I've never seen a poplar tree before, and I took lots of photos and posted them on my social media," said Qu Yanyu, a visitor from Yulin in northwest China's Shaanxi Province.  

The desert poplar is a rugged species of tree, known as "guardian of the desert". It is resistant to low temperatures, drought and saline-alkali soil, and serves as an ideal windbreak and sand-fixation plant.

Since the beginning of this year, Makit County has continued to advance ecological protection in the Yarkant River basin, poplar forest management and wetland restoration, building a solid ecological barrier at the desert's edge. What was once riverbank wetland has been transformed step by step into an ecological and cultural park with clear water, lush forests and beautiful scenery.

　秋の気配が深まる中、中国北西部の新疆ウイグル自治区カシュガル地区マキト県にあるポプラ林が見頃を迎え、遠近からの観光客を引き寄せている。

　マキト県には1万9000ヘクタール余りの原生ポプラ林があり、砂の海に堂々と立つ砂漠ポプラとヤルカンド川岸に寄り添う水辺のポプラが互いに照り映え、息を呑むほどの絶景となっている。

　＜広東省広州市の観光客　趙南玉さん＞
　「砂漠ポプラを間近で見るのは初めてだ。乾燥した砂漠でポプラが根を張り育つとは想像しにくい。砂漠とポプラが互いを引き立て合い、非常に独特で雄大な景色だ。新疆ならではの自然の美しさを実感し、来た甲斐があった」

　＜陝西省楡林市の観光客　屈彦瑜さん＞
　「遠くから見ると、このポプラ林は金色の海のようだ。ポプラの木を見るのは初めてで、たくさん写真を撮り、SNSに投稿した」

　今年に入ってから、マキト県はヤルカンド川流域の生態保護やポプラ林の管理、湿地回復作業を継続的に進め、砂漠の縁に強固な生態障壁を築いている。かつての河川敷の湿地は、水が澄み、森が茂り、景観が美しい生態文化園へと変貌した。
