the eleventh day
Today we are going to two major scenic spots in Yinchuan. They are all on the outskirts of the city, so go to Shahu in the north first. The hotel set off to Shahu, the navigation did not point to the expressway, but guided to a straight road, and it took about half an hour to arrive.
The package ticket booked by Ctrip is 115 yuan per boat, and you can get on the boat before 9:30. The boat sails for about half an hour.
When we arrived at the shore at 10:00, we were surprised to find that there were densely packed birds on the roof of the pier, flying together, which was quite spectacular.
After getting off the boat, it is the sand dune tourist area. It is very leisurely to ride a camel for 80 yuan per person. After getting off the camel, it is a place for sand skiing. It is 30 yuan per person. This is a bit expensive, and it will be gone in a few seconds. Going down the sand is a place to play sand bikes. My son went up to experience it. It costs less than 200 yuan and 10 minutes. The time is too short to be enjoyable.
Play the sand bike and climb back to the hill, continue to move forward, passing hot air balloons and speedboats all the way, these are not of much interest. After walking to the end, there is a sand sculpture garden. Although the two sand sculptures are quite large and exquisitely carved, they are still different from the grand name.
On the way to the return boat dock, my wife and children took a fancy to the seaplane again, and took turns to experience it. It only took a few minutes to fly, but it still looked thrilling, and the two of them spent 600 oceans again.
On the return journey by boat, the pier where we come back to dock is not the same pier as when we came here. It takes a lot of walking to get off the boat, passing through many shops, but also passing through a relatively large lotus pond, which is full of blooming and many lotus flowers, which can be regarded as an increase of this trip. a bright spot.
Finally, take the battery car to the intersection 500 meters away from the parking lot. Generally speaking, desert-type tourism is a place to burn money. It costs 325 yuan for tickets for 3 people, and 1060 yuan for shopping. Be prepared for your wallet.
At 13:00, I found Xiaolan Fisherman’s, which received rave reviews online, near the place where I got off the bus. Three people entered the store and ordered a 165 yuan set meal. The portion of 6 dishes and one soup was so big that I couldn’t finish it all. The proprietress was also very polite. The table will come to make homework, and watermelon is also given away, and finally the Coke is free. We struggled to finish the chilli fish head and vegetables and it was delicious.
Customers are satisfied with the proprietress' reputation and business will naturally be good, I wish the proprietress a prosperous business.
Departure at 14:00 to go to the Western Film and Television City. First, you have to get on the expressway, and then drive a section of the national highway. I drove this section of the national highway 5 years ago when I visited the Xixia Royal Tomb and Helan Mountain Rock Paintings. I feel familiar and friendly.
Around 14:30, we arrived at the Western Film and Television City, with 80 tickets and 40 half-price student tickets.
After checking the ticket and entering the scenic spot, 20 people will be collected, and a free explanation will be arranged. In a short while, the crowd exceeded 30 people, and the guide set off with our mighty team. The 3 of us followed the guide from beginning to end, and most of them would get separated——the team was only left at the end 5 people.
Let's visit Mingcheng first. Mingcheng has a large area and is the main attraction of the film and television city. There are many filming locations for film and television dramas. A building has recorded the birth of many classic film and television scenes. What impressed me deeply was the scene of shooting the arch of red sorghum and the scene of Journey to the West Zhizunbao breaking into the bathing pool of spider spirits.
We walked around Mingcheng for about an hour and a half, and then went to Qingcheng. Qingcheng was built later, with a smaller scale and more exhibition halls and museums. The most worth visiting is the memorial hall of the founder Zhang Xianliang and the museum of his collections. Mr. Zhang is very discerning, and the collections collected in the museum are all treasures. After walking around Qingcheng for less than an hour, we walked out of Qingcheng to an old street on the side. It is said that it took dozens of days to build it for filming. There is a sunflower field beside the old street, and the scenery is good.
At 18:30, leave the western film and television city, and navigate to Guoqiang Handchow. When you arrive in Yinchuan, you must have another meal of handchow mutton. Guoqiang has eaten the first phase of China on the tip of his tongue. The business is very hot. We waited until 19:30 to eat. We grabbed 108 yuan a catty and ordered lamb leg meat, grilled lamb chops, mutton stewed noodles, vegetables ——I was full again.
Back at the hotel at 21:00, I originally planned to go to the shopping mall downstairs, but today I walked nearly 30,000 steps, setting a record for this outing, and I couldn't walk anymore, so I went back to my room to rest.
