Sleeping in a tent on the edge of the desert last night didn't sleep well at all.

The wind is strong, and the wind and sand are strong.

Fortunately, the mobile phone signal was strong, so I found a sandpit and jumped into it, and started calling and chatting with friends to pass the difficult time.

After getting out of the bunker, the whole body is covered with sand.

Woke up this morning, casually ate some snacks that I brought with me, and the three of them had a simple discussion on the next step of the itinerary.

The result of the discussion was that they rushed to Qiemo County for lunch at noon, and rushed to Ruoqiang in the evening anyway.

We need a good shower and rest for the night.

Let's go, at 8 o'clock in the morning, we set off!


Sixth, seven-day itinerary: Qiemo - Ruoqiang.


When we set off, we passed by a place called Dragon Inn.

But I think the well-known movie "Dragon Inn" was not shot here.

These red willows in the desert should be planted artificially.

Looking good!

At noon, we arrived at Qiemo County.

Qiemo is known as a small county on the edge of the sky, with good greening.

Pedestrians on the cross street.

For lunch at Qiemo, the noodles are very authentic.

I basically drove around the county, which gave me a good impression.

Then, we continued on our way.

Populus euphratica stretches along the way.

desert.

Self-driving tour with a family of four, parked and climbed into the desert to play, took a picture from a distance and wished them all the best!

I write words.

The vitality is so tenacious, why do we complain?

Ruoqiang is coming!

We found a hotel and we took a shower first. The price of the hotel is very cheap, only 80 yuan for a standard room, but the facilities are very poor.

Then we found a barbecue restaurant in the night market to eat barbecue, and the owner was Uighur.

Beer is sold by the bottle, no matter what kind of beer it is, it is 6 yuan per bottle.

Barbecue and haggis are very good!

This was taken on the morning of the 16th, the seventh day after we came out.

The location is the square in front of the Loulan Museum in Ruoqiang County.

The weather seems to be getting better, at least not very gray.

Populus euphratica in the square, what a guy!

The main entrance of the Loulan Museum.

Take pictures to commemorate.

There are many displays in the museum, and I took a lot of them, but I won’t post them here.

Bottom line: this is one place you should see.

After walking for an hour, I felt not only shock, but also deep contemplation.

Goodbye Ruoqiang, goodbye Loulan beauty!

Going to the Loulan Museum made us negotiate in advance, and it was really a worthwhile trip.

After visiting the museum, we started to have breakfast and visited Ruoqiang County.

The next step we are going to take is the desert road from Ruoqiang to Korla.
