Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region has opened its first China-Mongolia cross-border tourist route in Qinghe County.

The route is from Tarkshken border crossing in Qinghe County, Xinjiang to Bulgan, Mongolia. Tourists from both sides can travel to specific areas with a valid border pass.

Qinghe Kanas International Travel Service Ltd and Xinjiang Overseas International Travel Service Company are the only two travel agencies that are allowed to organize group tours to Bulgan.

Tourists will go to Bulgan by international shuttle bus. They will have to register with a travel agency for a border pass one day before traveling to Bulgan.
