Half desert, half lake, a sacred land

🏜 There is a moment to experience "A solitary smoke in the vast desert straight, the long river sunset round." 🏜 Alxa League in Inner Mongolia, a 1.5-hour drive from Yinchuan Airport. 🏜 Why go to Wuhai? Because Vast, expansive, lonely, ethereal. Like a dazzling pearl set, the desert like a golden ocean, the lakes shimmer like sapphires. The first stop in the great Northwest, I left it to Wuhai~ Recommended attractions 📷 "Wuhai Lake" scenic area. Nestled against mountains and water, the water encircles the city Wuhai is truly a pearl of the Yellow River~ Navigate to "Wuhai Lake No.1 Pier Scenic Area" Ticket price 98 yuan, including round-trip boat ticket 📍Note: 📍You can only go to the desert to take pictures of the popular tree by boat! The last boat is at 16:30! 📍After disembarking, you have to walk half an hour along the lake in the desert, if you can't walk, pay for an off-road vehicle to go to the shooting point! Pay attention to the return time 📷 Manbalag Temple A Tibetan temple built during the Qianlong period, locals call it Little Lhasa. Navigate to "Lama Temple" there is a parking lot at the entrance 📍Note: 📍Park at the entrance, the temple is halfway up the hill for free, and you have to walk a bit further up! But it's very photogenic!📷 The temple will rest at noon and open after 14:30 in the afternoon. If you rent a costume, it's 200 yuan for 3 hours. There are no rentals around the temple, you have to rent in Wuhai and bring it over to take pictures 📍Recommended food Old Ama Mongolian Restaurant, Sanping Stewed Meat Restaurant, Longheng Braised Noodles, Ma Ji Lamb Restaurant, Huaiyuan Night Market, Nuermai Spicy Strips, Rolled Cold Skin, Wu Ji Milk Fermented Glutinous Rice TIPS: 📍Make sure to prepare sunscreen and sun protection clothing! 📍The desert wind is very strong, and the sun is very intense. 📍Hats and sunglasses are best with a string, try to wear boots or slippers
