The herds of cattle, sheep and horses are scattered on the grassland like stars, forming a magnificent picture with the distant white snow-capped mountains, dark green Tianshan spruce, white yurts and blue sky.
Being in this vast grassland, riding on horseback and riding the wind, my heart is also widened; watching the simple and beautiful life of herdsmen, my heart is quiet.
