"Narati" is the Mongolian language for "the sun rise place". According to legend, during Genghis Khan's expedition to the West, there was a Mongol army marching from the depths of the Tianshan Mountains to Ili. It was spring, but the mountains were full of snow and the army was tired from hunger and cold. I did not want to cross the mountains, but in front of me was a wild prairie with flowers and brocades, full of springs and gurgling water, as if I had entered another world. At this time, the clouds began to rise, and the officers and soldiers shouted "Narati, Narati", so there was this place name. Narati grassland is the earliest grassland developed by tourism among the nine steppes in Yili. It is a regional scenic spot and a national AAAAA scenic spot
