大 牛Ningxia's two most famous mountains are the Helan Mountains in the northwest and the Liupan Mountains in the southeast. The Helan Mountains block wind and snow, creating a vast area of wine grape cultivation on its eastern side—the largest in China—and Ningxia wines are gaining increasing fame and international acclaim. The mountains aren't difficult to climb, but they possess a distinctly Northwest character: deeper colors, steep cliffs, and tall, sparse trees, quite different from southern vegetation. Even in summer, climbing them isn't hot; a cool breeze makes it very comfortable. This pillar of the Northwest is truly remarkable.

_WB***59A highly recommended attraction, rich in content and boasting spectacular scenery. The entrance begins with the World Rock Art Museum, where you can learn about the meaning of the rock paintings. Then, you take a sightseeing bus to the Helan Mountain Rock Art area. The bus is enclosed, so it's not cold. The Helan Mountains here are rocky mountains, majestic and precipitous. The rock art signs make them easy to find. We were even lucky enough to see a argali sheep! After viewing the rocks, take another sightseeing bus, a mere 3-minute ride, to the Han Meilin Art Museum. The Han Meilin Art Museum is also excellent, with exquisite sculptures and paintings.

M46***54I went to the hot springs again, this time with my parents. The hot spring environment is still very good, the water quality is good, the sand therapy is great, the privacy is good, the staff has a good service attitude and is kind. There is a staff member named Chen Shuxia who is very good. She took the initiative to help get towels and serve tea. She repeatedly reminded us to take our mobile phones and valuables with us and make sure they are waterproof. My parents were very satisfied with this hot spring trip

白驹幕府过隙It's completely borrowed from "A Chinese Odyssey" The environment and facilities of the scenic spot are very average, and the road surface of the parking lot is not hardened and bumpy. The scenic spot is roughly divided into three areas, Ming City, Qing City and Yinchuan Retro Old Street. Because of the climate. The wind and sand are very dusty. Just come and go.

136***60I went there because of the filming locations for "A Chinese Odyssey," fulfilling a childhood dream. Many scenes are still exactly the same. I owe Stephen Chow a movie ticket, hahaha. It was a great experience, and I'll definitely come again.

nxz***csYuanshi Winery is a prime example of the harmonious blend of nature and craftsmanship. Transformed from an abandoned sand and gravel mine, it took six years to "turn decay into magic," reshaping the ecosystem by turning over soil and collecting stones, and building traditional Chinese architecture with distinctly Eastern charm. Amidst red walls and gray tiles, the vineyards stretch like a sea, every corner telling a story of rebirth. Visiting during the harvest season in September and October allows you not only to stroll along the vineyard corridors and sample fine wines, but also to witness firsthand the wondrous process of winemaking, seeing how bunches of grapes transform into a fine wine in your glass. The wine landscape of the eastern foothills of the Helan Mountains extends far beyond this! From modern boutique wineries to secluded cellars nestled in the mountains, each winery nurtures its unique terroir, allowing time to refine its aroma. If you crave the romance of a light buzz and are captivated by the stories behind fine wines, this land will surely make your trip worthwhile—after all, every drop of wine here is brewed from the sunshine and winds of this "Jiangnan beyond the Great Wall."

MaxSNine tombs of the kings of Western Xia and more than 140 accompanying tombs with the remains of key members of the imperial family and aristocrats are located according to the contours of the terrain on an area of 50 km2 on the eastern side of Helan Shan. Each tomb was an independent architectural complex with an area of over 100,000 m2 with turrets, arches, stele pavilions, outer walls, inner cities, memorial halls, pagoda-shaped altars and walls for worship. Very interesting spot.

silly-huiThe Western Xia Imperial Tombs are one of Ningxia's most iconic historical sites, often referred to as the "Oriental Pyramids," and are well worth a visit. This is the royal mausoleum of the Western Xia Dynasty (1038-1227), where many Western Xia emperors are buried. It serves as a window into the history, culture, and art of this mysterious ancient kingdom. The mausoleum area covers approximately 50 square kilometers and contains nine imperial tombs and over 250 accompanying tombs. It is one of the largest and best-preserved imperial mausoleum complexes in China.

M35***19As a local, I've never been there before and thought it was just a few earthen mounds. But after I went there, I found that it was indeed just a few earthen mounds, hahahaha. However, the museum is really well done and exceeded my expectations. The overall architectural style is very consistent with the Western Xia Royal Tombs and is very photogenic. The exhibits are also worth seeing. I recommend it.
4.2/5愉行人After visiting Yinchuan, we went to the Huaiyuan Tourist Night Market to sample a variety of delicious food. We were particularly impressed by the one-meter-long skewers, which cost 25 yuan each and could easily be shared by three women. They were incredibly delicious. The grilled lamb chops were 12 yuan a skewer, made entirely of small ribs, and the meat was incredibly tender. We also had freshly skewered lamb shanks, which satisfied our craving for the rich, tender lamb. We also waited in line for spicy noodles, delicious and juicy pan-fried dumplings, and a grandpa's homemade fermented glutinous rice wine with milk and eggs. We couldn't get enough!
