v After the four-day tour in Yinchuan City, I took a car directly to Qingtongxia Town on the afternoon of May 18th. The whole sky was gray that day, and the PM10 value of the afternoon sandstorm was nearly 300. The wind and sand covered the sky. There is only one long street in the town, occasionally pedestrians walk in a hurry, the small restaurants on the side of the road are closed, and occasionally there are three or two open, go in and eat a simple bowl of beef noodles, it is close to Qingtongxia The hotel in the service center of the scenic spot has checked in. (In addition, there are one or two hotels one or two kilometers after going east to the end and turning north). Personally, I suggest that it is more convenient to live at Qingtongxia Railway Station. There is a bus from the railway station to the town, which is very convenient, and it takes half an hour by car. In addition, living in Wuzhong City is also very convenient.
Today, May 19th, is World Tourism Day, Qingtongxia Grand Canyon tickets are half price, I heard that Liupanshan Forest Park is free of charge on this day. 200 meters to the west of my residence is the visitor center. I bought a 60 yuan A-line package ticket at the ticket office at 8 o'clock in the morning, including Jiuqu Square, Ningxia Water Conservancy Expo, cruise ships, and 108 towers. I entered the scenic spot at 8:30. Not far from the entrance is the Ningxia Water Conservancy Expo, because I have learned some related history in Shuidonggou and Ningxia Museum before. Today, the focus is to see the 108 on Helan Mountain in the Yellow River Hero Valley Scenic Spot. Tower, so browse around and it's out. After passing through the dam and the Yellow River Iron Bridge, take a cruise ship to the 108 Towers on the other side of the Yellow River. The 108 Towers were built in the Western Xia Dynasty and have a history of more than 900 years. Triangle, there is a tourist guide on the boat to explain to us, and finally told us that 108 is a relatively auspicious number in Buddhism, and there are 108 kinds of troubles in life, let us check the number of towers, if we can just find out the number of 108 towers, then life will be troubled from now on go all out. The whole process of going up the mountain is about ten minutes. Standing at the highest point of the tower, you can overlook the continuous Helan Mountain.
It took nearly 3 hours to return to the service center by boat, return to the residence, took the luggage and took the car directly to Qingtongxia Railway Station. There are more places to eat here. I chose one to feed my stomach, and then I took the 1615 train , starting at 12.50 to Zhongwei at 14.09, after getting off the train, I bought the Brilliance Hotel for 56 yuan online near the train station. It is very cost-effective, and I like this small city very much. The buildings are all loft-style, the urban planning is good, and there are many vegetation. The quality of urban residents is also high, and people they come into contact with when asking directions, shopping, dining, and lodging are very enthusiastic and honest. I want to stay here for an extra day the next day.
Go to Gaomiao in the afternoon, just over 100 meters from the residence. And there is a farmer's market near Gaomiao, with all kinds of food, fruits, vegetables, etc. In the evening, I went to the market to buy goji berries, filled out the delivery form directly at the booth, and arrived home a few days later. The price was cheap and it was very convenient.
At 7 o'clock in the morning on the 20th, spend 5 yuan to take the No. 2 bus to Shapotou (1 hour's drive). Shapotou Scenic Area is divided into two parts: the Yellow River Scenic Area and the Desert Scenic Area. There is a hiking trail on the bank of the Yellow River. Between the desert tens of meters above the Yellow River and the Yellow River is a botanical garden of flowers, plants and trees. There is a winding battery car road inside the botanical garden. This road seems to be three kilometers long. Entertainment items, as well as glass planks. At the end of the hiking trail, there is a rolling desert ladder, which is divided into three long sections. After going up, there is a slope, and the zipline, sandboarding, and cable car projects are on the side of the road. Standing on the side of the road, you can see the meandering Yellow River in front of you, and on the other side of the river are endless mountains, layers upon layers of which you can’t see at a glance. I enjoyed it for a long time before entering the desert scenic spot.
Take the shuttle bus directly and go a long way to the parking spot deep in the desert. The endless Tengger Desert is in front of me. I am excited to climb to the first desert mountain, which is also the highest place in the desert and the place with the most tourists. Many people are there Excitedly posing and taking photos, I walked to another mountain on the west side alone. I wanted to experience the loneliness of crossing the desert alone, away from the hustle and bustle, far away from human groups, with bare feet, whether in a hurry or slowly, I saw the front A seabuckthorn tree, lamenting its tenacious vitality, saw a dung krona digging a hole, flapping its limbs and taking turns to pick up the soil, and even made a buzzing sound. After observing for a long time, its body just disappeared for a while. When its hole was dug, it pretended to be dead and remained motionless. . . Small animals, in order to survive, must have skills and work hard, not to mention us human beings with big thinking and big minds?
I played in the desert for more than an hour, then drove back to the gate of the Yellow River District, and went out for sand boarding. The slope was too steep and long, and I didn't dare to let go of the speed, so I felt so-so. After going down the mountain, instead of taking a battery car, we walked out on foot. Then I took the No. 2 bus back to the city at the entrance of the scenic spot, had a meal, picked up my luggage and went to the train station. 14.28 train, to Guyuan 17.24, the ticket is 32.5 yuan, get off and take the No. 1 bus to the bus station, the bus station is opposite to the side of the main road, there are many restaurants, eat a bowl of noodles, and choose a hotel near the middle square, Check in at 67 yuan.
2 The two-day tour is over, and I learned illustrations today, so I will post a few more. It's just that the pictures haven't been processed, so pay attention to it.
