    Most people might just visit the Corner Tower ruins and leave. My family of three walked around the west city for about an hour. The path was relatively easy to follow (there were some dirt roads), not crowded, and we even saw the archaeologists at work. It was a wonderful experience. I really enjoyed the site and it deepened my understanding of the Sixteen Kingdoms period.

    A great place to see authentic archaeology. The Soldier Cave is highly recommended. Unfortunately, I missed the show due to lack of time. The camel ride was affordable. The so-called special transportation options, aside from the tractor, were just average. The museum and the Soldier Cave offer free guided tours, which was highly recommended.

    This is a similar landform that has become very popular in China in recent years, known as China's Wave Valley. Formed during the Cretaceous period, 96 million years ago, it is also composed of red sandstone eroded by wind and water. Its lines and textures are strikingly similar to the Wave Valley in the United States, but its overall color is predominantly ochre-red. The scenic area is divided into several zones, such as Flame Danxia, ​​Red Cliff Danxia, ​​and Earth Core Danxia. Wave Valley can be combined with Red Stone Gorge and Zhenbeitai in Yulin, as well as Xiangshawan in Ordos, to create a scenic and historical tour of northern Shaanxi and southern Inner Mongolia. Tour duration: 4 hours or more

    We arrived a little after 4 PM and finished before 6 PM. There were almost no people there, which was a wonderful experience. The afternoon light isn't as bright as the midday light. The 3.5-kilometer walk wasn't tiring at all, as it was mostly stone paths.

    Visiting Yinchuan during the off-season is so great! Although there are fewer attractions than in the summer, it feels like having the whole place to yourself. You don't have to queue for any of them, making for a fantastic experience.

    Because of the rain, the booked Shuidonggou Scenic Area was temporarily closed, so we changed it to Qingtongxia Scenic Area. The itinerary was quite good; we took a boat, went rafting on sheepskin rafts, and experienced the 108 Pagodas. Finally, we took a large truck to ferry us out.

    I didn't make an appointment to go to the Ningxia Museum, so I made an appointment to go to the Geological Museum instead. There are three and a half floors, but only two floors can be visited. I think an hour is enough. There are many children on the first floor, which is quite noisy. However, many real objects in the Ningxia Museum are placed for close viewing, which is very good.

    Lanshan Park is undoubtedly the most popular tourist attraction in Yinchuan. The park features a large, shimmering lake. Beside the lake is a standard football field. Surrounding the field on three sides are tall stands. If that were all, it would just be a decent park. The most striking feature is the row of buildings atop the stands. These buildings are decorated in a classic European style. Those who watched Saint Seiya as children will remember the Zodiac Palaces; this architectural style is reminiscent of Greek mythology. Actually, this row of buildings has no practical significance; it's just a long corridor. The focus is on the design, but even that is enough to make it incredibly popular online. #FreePark #Yinchuan #Ningxia #Stadium #Park #CityPark #Stadium #WeekendGetaway #CaptureBeautifulMoments #NingxiaTourism

    The following are some reviews of Longyu Winery from ordinary consumers and the general public: • Wine Quality and Taste: Many consumers believe that Longyu Winery's wines are of exceptional quality, standing out among domestic wines, comparable to some imported brands. For example, Longyu's Long 12 Cabernet Sauvignon Red boasts a complex and persistent aroma, a mellow and sweet flavor, mature and fine tannins, and a long finish. Others comment that Longyu's Cabernet Sauvignon Red boasts a rich aroma and flavor, surpassing most other Cabernet Sauvignons from the eastern foothills of the Helan Mountains. Others note that Longyu's wines have strong pepper and vanilla aromas, making them a good match for spicy Chinese food. They also note that the wines have a rich barrel aroma, mellow fruit flavors, and a fine, full-bodied body. • Price: Some consumers find Longyu Winery's wines a bit expensive. For example, some believe that Longyu's Cabernet Sauvignon Red, while of good quality, is a bit pricey. Some also expressed concerns that Longyu Winery, after receiving the "King of World Wine" title, would leverage this to raise prices, potentially impacting consumer purchasing decisions. • Travel Experience: Longyu Winery boasts a distinctive architecture, resembling a European castle, surrounded by a water system and extensive vineyards, making it a popular photo spot. Visitors shared that admission to the winery is 80 yuan, and upon entering, guests can sample a variety of wines from different production processes for free in the tasting area on the first floor, where they can also observe the wine production line in action.
