D1 Qingdao - Hohhot

At 5 o'clock in the morning, facing the morning sun with a heart full of joy, I drove Da'ang all the way north, passing through the Beijing Third Ring Road in the middle, it was too congested! Let me immediately question whether this is high speed? I really want to be Mary and jump all the way on the roof of the car. After leaving the city of Beijing, the Great Wall winds like a giant python among the mountains. Although I have been to Beijing, I have never climbed the Great Wall at the root of the imperial city. I hope I can come here just for him next time. After leaving Juyongguan, our destination today is getting closer and closer. We finally arrived at 8:30 in the evening. After a day of exhaustion, we had a simple meal. Let’s wash up and sleep. The journey tomorrow will be even further.

In the morning, we briefly visited the first mansion in the Southern Desert——Suiyuan City General’s Mansion, because it is only a few hundred meters away from the hotel, but the door has not opened in the morning, so we can only look outside the door. Let's take a tour.

Pass through Hohhot at 8:30, pass through Baotou, and enter G7 at 10:00, the longest desert expressway in China ~ G7 Jingxin Expressway!

We arrived in Hami City at 1:00 noon, so we quickly comforted our stomachs first. I chose the well-known Yiloulan Restaurant. The taste is indeed very good, and it is also very regional! But the portion is really big, we ordered a dozen or so dishes, and half of them were already full!

3. Hami Devil City

Since it was still too early for the sun to set (sunset at 11 pm), we decided to go directly to Hami Devil City!

The temperature outside the car is 43.5! Walking into the Hami Yardan Landform Ecological Park is like walking into a maze, in the dark blue Gobi sea about 40 kilometers wide and 50 kilometers long. The palaces are either alone or connected together, majestic and magnificent under the reflection of the blue sky and white clouds! Here, after the baptism of wind and rain, it has given birth to all kinds of beautiful scenery that you can imagine.

4. Flame Mountain

After leaving the Devil City, we set off for the Flame Mountain while the temperature was getting a little lower as the night approached. It was nearly 10 o'clock in the evening when we arrived at Huoyan Mountain! It's still hot! It is said that the ground temperature can reach 80 or 90 degrees during the day, so it is no problem to bake an egg!

You can watch it in half an hour, and the appreciation is not high. There are many karez along the way, the fare of the unknown ones is only 10 yuan, while the fare for those developed by tourism is 40 yuan!

3. Turpan Museum: I have heard about the reputation of Loulan beauties for a long time, and I wanted to see her beauty. After I went there, I found out that she was in Urumqi. shaman. Because after all, they are ancient people, and they are still in awe, so it is not convenient to take pictures.
