Altay（阿勒泰）, a place in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region（新疆维吾尔自治区）, has become a famous place for tourists because of a successful TV show named To the Wonder（我的阿勒泰）. The show displayed the area's amazing natural beauty, with mountains covered in snow, lakes that are very clear, and old villages that are still in good condition. Altay is also a favorite place for skiing during the cold season.
People who study tourism say that Altay has always been famous for its beautiful nature, but it was no a popular place to visit before because it took a long time to travel there and the cost of staying in hotels was high. However, the popular TV show has made more people, especially young people, interested in visiting Altay.
Even though it can be difficult to travel to Altay, experts think that the area could become a great place for tourists. Altay has different interesting things to see in summer and winter, so it can attract visitors all year. The people in charge of Altay are advised to keep making their area better for tourists by improving their tourism and cultural attractions, as well as making the places for tourists to stay and visit better.
It is not the first time that a TV show has made a place more popular for tourists. In the last few years other places, like Dali in Yunnan Province, have also become popular tourist destinations（目的地） because of interesting TV dramas. By making tour products that include both natural beauty and cultural activities, Altay can make visiting even better and bring more people to see their special area.
