If you live on the migration of the Kazakh herdsmen living on this land, then you will find dust smoke again when you overlook the pass, a family herd, the herd of one household, and the "home" camel to the mountain stream. In the year after year, the Kazakh people of Aletai, who were born for grazing, lived by water and grass, accompanied by the mountains and prairies, and continued their ancestral life.
According to a local friend who is familiar with the Kazak nomadic culture, the Saar Braque Valley in Fuhai, Aletai, is a hundred years of pastoral road. Every summer and autumn two specific times, the migratory Kazakh herdsmen are going to pass here. He said you should pay attention to the big stone boards in the mountain stream. The footsteps of cattle, Ma Qun and the camels are the years of migration.

On a relatively gentle slope between the valleys, the herdsmen, busy on the road, said, "now our family and many herdsmen have settled down, and we don't go to winter in winter." The government is now subsidising the transit market, which will gradually replace this hard migration. Photography: Xiao Jiang (net name) in Fuhai
The Kazakh herdsmen walked along the everlasting, endless stream of pasture, from spring to summer, from autumn to winter, from childhood to twilight. Photography: Xiao Jiang (net name) in Fuhai
As the dust goes down, the Kazakh herdsmen have gone down the pasture of the ancestors, and the responsibility of history is not only to inherit the civilization of the harmony between man and nature, but also to protect the faith. Photography: Xiao Jiang (net name) in Fuhai
In the past few years, with the increase of carrying capacity, the ecological environment of the mountains and pastures was destroyed. In order to protect the ecology, Fuhai county put forward the request of postponing up the mountain. The time of the herdsmen transferred to the summer pasture was postponed to mid June, and the transfer activities were more concentrated. Photography: Xiao Jiang (net name) in Fuhai

Every time we set foot on the road, Kazakh herdsmen reverently revere nature. In their hearts, there are the general freedom of the eagle, the unrestrained and enthusiastic horse, the open mind of the prairie, and the national tradition that can't be measured by money.
