At present, the average temperature of the Altun Mountain National Nature Reserve in Xinjiang, located in the eastern part of Kunlun Mountain, is below minus 30 degrees Celsius. However, among the mountains and endless sand dunes, you can still see Tibetan antelopes, wild yaks, Tibetan wild asses, falcons, giant bustards and other creatures everywhere. The reporter entered this "no man's land" with the rangers and recorded the magnificent vitality here with the camera.
