Snabba fakta: Korla People's Square covers approximately 120,000 square meters, with a green coverage rate exceeding 60 percent. It serves as the core leisure space for local residents. The massive "Soaring" sculpture at the center of the square stands 18 meters tall, symbolizing the vigorous development of this oil-rich new city.
Höjdpunkter: Every evening at 8 o'clock sharp, the square's musical fountain dances to the melody of "Korla Night," with water jets reaching up to 25 meters. On weekend nights, you can see hundreds of Uyghur and Han citizens dancing together in the square, the steps of two cultures intertwining harmoniously on the same open ground.
Insidertips
- For great fountain photos, stand 50 meters directly in front of the sculpture. This way you can capture both the fountain and the sculpture in the same frame.
- The square is most crowded on Friday and Saturday nights. If you want a peaceful stroll, visit on weekday mornings instead.
- There are several century-old elm trees in the northeast corner of the square with stone benches underneath, making it a great spot to rest in the shade.
- Remember to bring mosquito repellent in summer, as there are many mosquitoes on the grass in the evening.
