In the heart of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, the apple harvest season is in full swing. On October 23, 2025, an aerial drone captured the bustling activity at an orchard in Alaer city, where workers diligently transported freshly picked apples. Known for its unique climate, Xinjiang boasts abundant sunshine and dramatic temperature fluctuations between day and night, creating the perfect environment for cultivating fruits with naturally high sugar content. Among these, the apple stands out as a regional specialty, celebrated for its thin skin, dense texture, and juicy flesh. This year’s harvest not only highlights the agricultural prowess of the region but also underscores the economic and cultural significance of this beloved fruit. As the apples make their way to markets across the country, they carry with them the essence of Xinjiang’s rich agricultural heritage.
