The twelfth day
Today we are going to change places again, in fact, we are going back gradually. Visit Shuidonggou in the morning and arrive in Pingliang in the afternoon. After a good breakfast, depart at 9:00 and arrive at Shuidonggou Scenic Area at about 9:30. The play content of Shuidonggou is very rich, and the internal transportation in the scenic spot is the most I have seen.
After entering the scenic spot, first visit the museum and experience the 15-minute 5D movie of the disaster scene; walk out of the museum and discover the Zhang Xiaoer shop where two Frenchmen lived in the Shuidonggou site; then take a battery car tour to the No. 1 and No. 2 archaeological sites; Tour the ancient Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty on foot; after crossing the Great Wall, enter the wild Mongolian grassland, ride a camel, and change to a sand surfing car in the rest area; then change to a cruise ship to tour the lake and canyon; the cruise ship is a playground, and the full-price package we bought includes There are a lot of play items, but there is no time to go to the show, so I can only take the zipline to the other side; then change to a mule cart and then a camel cart, and rush to the performance venue.
There were not many people watching the performance today, we found better seats and sat down, the time was just right, and the actors were all warming up. After a while, the performance began. "Northern Xinjiang Sky Song" was performed by Mongolian knights in a large live scene. It lasted about 40 minutes and told the story of the life and battle of the Xixia Dangxiang people. The scene of the galloping horses was very shocking, and the audience was hooked. This performance is worth the ticket price.
After watching the performance, walk to Zangbing Cave to visit. Zangbing Cave is the place where soldiers stationed on the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty lived and trained. It is a historic site.
There are various organs and secret passages inside. Although it is quite dark and there are many steps, it is very interesting to walk around.
Coming out of the tunnel is the Great Wall Museum, which introduces the history and architectural types of the Great Wall. After visiting the museum, the itinerary is basically over. Finally, walk through the gate of the Great Wall and return to Ningxia, and take a large walking tractor back to the parking lot.
At about 14:00 at this time, we spent 4.5 hours crossing from Ningxia to Mongolia and back to Ningxia. We took 8 kinds of transportation, and the experience was really rich. There are two restaurants next to the parking lot. We found one and ordered three servings of noodles, including the special wild mushroom noodles, for a casual lunch.
At 14:30 on the way to Pingliang, there was a section of high-speed landslides, and I drove down the national highway for more than half an hour. From the vicinity of the Guyuan mountain area, the speed limit was relatively severe. For a long section, I could only drive at about 80.
Arrive at Pingliang Guangcheng Hotel at 19:00. This hotel is listed as 5 stars, and the online reviews are quite high, but I feel that only the environment is like a big park with 5 stars, and the room is old and old, with hard quilts Heavy, my son said it was a fake 5-star hotel.
I ate dinner at the hotel. I ordered a big bowl of steamed mutton, hot pot and vegetables. The hot pot is a local specialty, and the dishes are plentiful. Three people can't finish it. I got a 10% discount for paying the bill and staying at the hotel, which is less than 200 yuan.
Covered with a heavy quilt at night, it felt like staying in a hotel 10 years ago, but today I was tired from playing and driving, and fell asleep after a while.
