When I traveled to Zhongwei, I accidentally discovered the ancient villages on Route 66 and North Long Beach where the Internet celebrities punched in. According to previous comments from netizens, there would be no signal on the way to North Long Beach, and the road conditions were not good, and there were some worries about going the wrong way. Leaving at 2 o’clock this afternoon, it took an hour and a half to reach North Long Beach. I drove all the way and found that the road conditions were not as difficult as expected. On the way, there were only three or four sections of gravel roads, and the longest would not exceed one kilometer. It's all because the previous mudslide covered the asphalt road. I definitely say that the journey is driving on the edge of the Yellow River. Although it is only a two-way two-lane road, because there are very few cars on the road, it is safe to drive. There is only one road from Zhongwei to North Long Beach, so even if the mobile phone has no signal, there is no need to worry about driving the wrong way. I went in September. I personally think that the best shooting time for Route 66 is from 7 am to 9 am and from 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm.

The Internet celebrity 66 highway is only a short and short section, and most of the rest are open next to the Yellow River. The road is not good. Many places are almost in close contact with the Yellow River. You must be very careful when you are driving. Less than 500 meters before the lower village of North Longtan is a large waterwheel, which has a long history, and more than 8 kilometers is the upper village, which is larger in scale.

Zhongwei "The Most Beautiful Route 66" Speaking of this place was originally not a tourist attraction, and not many people know about it, but now all kinds of online media are too developed, and some tourist experts have been fired as "net celebrity check-in" after being exposed. Land". In fact, to be precise, this is a very beautiful road from "Shapotou" of Zhongwei to "North Long Beach". After inquiring about the route, we will drive there (you can also hire a taxi, which is very convenient). Fortunately, there is only one road, and we outsiders will not get lost, as long as we keep driving. Looking from both sides, the valleys on both sides of the highway are ups and downs, sometimes driving by the Yellow River, feeling the broad waves of the Yellow River; sometimes traveling between the Gobi and the loess, feeling a desolate. Looking at the scenery outside the car window, I don't know how long it took to turn around a corner, and suddenly my eyes suddenly opened up (looked at about 30 kilometers). Park the car on the grass on the side of the road and get off to look: red soil hills, green grass vines, and a road that is not wide in the middle. This is like "U.S. Route 66". I really didn't expect to see this in Ningxia. The beautiful scenery is not in vain. We deliberately drove more than 30 kilometers over. There are already young ladies taking pictures here. Far mountains, near hills, straight roads, and local yellow taxis are really beautiful, haha.

After playing in the desert in Zhongwei during the National Day, there was still some time, but the weather was not so good, and he was hesitant to go to North Long Beach, known as Zhongwei Route 66, but ultimately failed to resist the temptation of "good photo". It’s too late and it’s cloudy. When you come here from a long distance, you can only take pictures as you see fit. In fact, there are a few places along the way that are good for taking pictures. Don’t drive too fast, so you can stop and take pictures at any time. You will pass a pier by the Yellow River on the road. For shooting, about 8km away from North Long Beach, it is the best location to take photos. You can shoot in both directions. The specific location is almost as long as you see a dam on the side of the road where you can park. It is very suitable for road shooting. Photos, there are not many cars on this road, so be careful to avoid cars when taking pictures in the middle of the road. I think I don’t know what the beautiful scenery will be if there is a sunset when I go there. It’s a bit regretful. After all, I just passed by in a hurry. It’s not a good thing to leave a little regret. Maybe I will come here again next time!

Crossing this section of the highway, I saw the Yellow River at the turn of the peak, and I walked along the bank of the Yellow River in the back. After 20 or 30 kilometers, you can reach the famous North Longtan Village in Ningxia. The most attractive thing here is the annual pear blossom and jujube, which must be the old waterwheel. Although many people strongly recommend the ancient houses here, I don’t think those houses are very attractive. At most, they will remind you of the history here. Although these ancient waterwheels standing on the banks of the Yellow River have long been replaced by modern pumps, they seem to have been integrated with the Yellow River, telling the ancient and past stories here. Although there are very few villagers here, it would be great to come here to give your soul a vacation. Quiet small village, facing the Yellow River and thinking about life, it’s good to relax. Cross the most beautiful Route 66, see the quiet North Long Beach at the turn of the Yellow River, and meet the ancient waterwheel, but I am thinking of the brilliance here Starry sky. How many people have the same idea as me?
