Running and carnival youth, fertile and mysterious Ningxia~

little fairy tale

a long long time ago,
There is a magical land on the territory of the motherland at 38 degrees north latitude.
A stream of clear water descends from the sky, rises from the vast sea and desert Pinghu! "Stop Jiangnan" - Ningxia is such a magical place~

What's even more amazing is the 900-year-old Tombs of the Xixia Kings,
Not only does not a single blade of grass grow on the high sealing soil of the Xixia Emperor's Mausoleum, but also no birds ever fall~

one day,
A little girl came here,
Seeing the vast grassland, the majestic Helan Mountain, and the beauty of sunset and dusk, she cheered, danced and sang to her heart's content. Unexpectedly, she disturbed Grandpa Earth God and turned her into a "rabbit spirit"!

Grandpa Earth God said:
"You yellow-haired girl is so bold that you dare to disturb the imperial tomb. Do you know where this is?"
little girl said:
"I'm sorry, Grandpa Earth God, I really didn't know that you can't sing and dance here. I just really like the beautiful scenery here and I'm very happy, that's why it's like this... I really know I'm wrong!"
Grandpa Earth God said:
"Since this is the case, then you can stay here. If one day the fate comes, you will naturally be able to change into your original form~"

In this way, the little girl turned into a rabbit and stayed in the Xixia Royal Tomb~

Sunrise followed by sunset,
"Little Rabbit" not only has to avoid the threat of foreign unknown objects,
I have to find food for myself to sustain my life, but it is also a relief for TA to see the quiet and beautiful scenery of Ningxia starry sky and sunrise in the deepest night sky!
"I don't know when I can change back to human form," the little rabbit muttered as he huddled in the grass and looked at the distant scenery!

until one day,
A boy appeared,
He was also attracted by the magical beauty of the setting sun on the vast grassland, and stayed here for a long time, refusing to leave. The "little rabbit" also noticed the boy in yellow when he was hiding in the grass, but he was too sleepy. Felt asleep while eating the leaves~

The boy actually came to the side of the grass,
When he found the "little rabbit", he walked over quietly and grabbed him with one hand, but he was shocked. This "little rabbit" was different from ordinary rabbits. With hands and feet, the eyes seem to be able to speak, and the "little rabbit" is also terrified, for fear that it will be eaten, but unexpectedly found that his hands and feet have changed back, even though he still has ears and cannot speak, but he is still very happy~
The little boy didn't mean to hurt the "little rabbit", but was very curious and played with her~

"Little Rabbit" has been very worried that he can't speak and explain,
If he looks like a little monster, he will be disliked, or locked up and sent to the zoo, but the little boy does not mean to dislike him. He looks at each other with sincere eyes, as if there are only two of them in the whole world~
"Little Rabbit" found his heart beating "bang bang bang~" speeding up, it's over, this is the feeling of heartbeat!

With the earth as the stage,
The sky is the background, the singing of cicadas and birds is the music, and the setting sun is the light. They dance lightly, yearning for sunshine, freedom and hope~

A star appeared,
"Little Rabbit" turned back into a human form,
They bid farewell to Grandpa Earth God together and left here~

In the face of the soul of nature and the magnificence of human history, maintain a heart of awe!

[The above is purely fictitious]
Ningxia is a beautiful and magical place,
Inspired Xiaoduo, forgive Xiaoduo's love fantasy, I really like this place so much! I hope to share what I see, hear, feel and feel with you in more forms~

Next, let’s go to Ningxia with Xiaoduo!

| remember

Always have to go through thousands of mountains and rivers with you to understand the meaning of life;
Always have to go through the crowds of people with you to fall in love with the prosperity of this world;
I always have to come to Ningxia with you once in my life to know what we mean to each other.
The plane passed over Ningxia, and those beautiful scenery came into view one by one. We are finally coming to Ningxia, Zhenbei Fort, Helan Mountain, Xixia Mausoleum... here we come!
When we got off the plane, it was getting late. We put our luggage into the Ningxia International Hotel and prepared to pack up and set off tomorrow to meet Ningxia...

After meeting, I realized that being a speck of dust here is my greatest wish in this life. My world is beautiful because of you, and my sky is not dark because of you; maybe inadvertently, you have left a beautiful trace in my heart~

Yaya~~~~ Xiaoduo is really too hypocritical!
From childishness to maturity, from love to marriage, can Xiaoduo keep writing hypocritically until she grows old?
[Ningxia] This article is for everyone, this city I really like!

Zhenbei Fort - the love of my life

"My ideal person is a hero of the world. One day he will step on the colorful clouds to marry me. I guessed the beginning, but I can't guess the ending."
"The past, the present, the past will never come again/Red red, the fallen leaves are buried in the dust/The beginning and the end are always, unchanged..."
When we were young, we would always sigh for the love between Zixia and Zhizunbao, but now we have finally become our own Zixia and Zhizunbao...

This is also a super suitable place for travel photography!
Xiaoduo feels that I can’t finish filming here in one day. If I have another chance, I will definitely shoot every scene in "A Chinese Journey to the West"~

Love without regret is the most correct thing we should do in this life,
But how many people have missed love, and how many people have wronged themselves, after all, they can only regret it in this life~

Remember when we first met,
It was the summer of my graduation year, with two braids on my head,
Every day I rode a small yellow bike to the opposite side of the school to practice subject three. Yes, I graduated that year! But after taking the driver's license test for three years, he didn't graduate!
This is the fourth time for me to take the third exam, and I decided to fight to the end with the attitude of not admitting defeat. At that time, you were also one of them who practiced the third exam, but it was your first exam, so it must be fate. The two people who had nothing to do with each other got acquainted because the confused Xiaoduo mistook the person, thought you were a student in my coach car, and called you: "Hurry up and get in the car!" That's how I found out that the two of us are still fellow villagers , Later I went to work in Guangdong after my driver's license test, and you were still studying at school, because a trip we met finally brought us together!
The most correct choice in this life is probably you!

Perhaps, neither you nor I are Zixia and Zhizunbao,
We don't have such a vigorous love, but we are also the only thing that each other can never live without.

it's here,
Those most unforgettable movie plots,
Do you remember those familiar scenes?

sitting under the moon gate,
Chatting with her around, laughing heartily,
Share your happiness with her, even if it is the best to be in a daze quietly, let the troubles and stress in life disappear, and enjoy the beauty of life.

For the die-hard fans of "A Chinese Journey to the West",
Every scene here is a feeling. If you are not careful, you will wake up the weakest memory in your heart.

walk in it,
Wandering among props that are indistinguishable between true and false,
As if traveling through a dreamlike movie world, everything is so real and natural, giving people a kind of desolate desert love, desert rivers and lakes.

Today's Zhenbeibao Western Studios,
Contains rich film and television culture, traditional folk projects,
Every time it is presented in front of your eyes, it will always give people a visual impact. Therefore, you need to take a pair of eyes to discover beauty, stop and go, record the most beautiful moments with the lens, and experience the wonderful things outside of life with your heart.

Every scene seems familiar~

At dusk, the Western Studios of Zhenbeibao is more vicissitudes and more beautiful.

When I put on Zixia Fairy's clothes,
Standing here, looking at the red sun in the distance, I feel a little dazed.

My husband and I have been together for several years. Although we have had bumps and bumps along the way, it is very interesting to think about it now.

Hahahaha, just like Fairy Zixia said, "From now on, you will be my man, just like my donkey, I will give you a stamp", no matter how many problems there are, Mr. is still my man, hehe.

The scene on the city wall in "A Chinese Journey to the West" has finally become a classic on the screen, and Zhenbei Fort has become a holy place in the hearts of all movie fans.

Here, as "Oriental Hollywood", countless miracles and dreams have been created;
This magical place, once loved by countless classic film and television dramas, has become a place for the fusion of multiple cultures.
Sword light and sword shadow, chivalrous pride, joyful kindness and hatred, the rivers and lakes start here!

Suyukou - You Are All In My Eyes

those of our past,
Just like the yellow sand in Zhenbei Fort, blowing away with the wind.
After we have seen the love between Zixia and Zhizunbao together, perhaps it is the most interesting and meaningful to perform our own love ceremony. And now, we will go to Suyukou to look at the stars together. This may be the most romantic ceremony we have ever done.

We arrived here in the afternoon,
The sky is clear and the sky is clear, all of which make people feel comfortable.
The mountains here are like the black backs of bison, full of wildness. The continuous ups and downs of those high mountains are like the feelings in my chest, which are stirring endlessly.

Suyukou Plank Road is 5.3 kilometers long.
The drop is 1040 meters, and some are built along the cliffs, like a ladder;
Some span the top of the mountain, like a flyover; some shuttle in the dense forest, like a flying jade belt. This plank road is the longest in the Northwest region, with the largest drop, and the only high mountain cliff plank road in Ningxia.

My husband and I sat on the cable car,
Looking up at the mountains of Suyukou, you will always feel your own insignificance, how short a human life will be among all things in this world, maybe grasping youth is the most important thing we have to do in this life.

Are you afraid of this cable car?
Haha~ This is Xiaoduo's first time sitting, it's so exciting! ! !

My husband and I sat on the cable car,
Looking up at the mountains of Suyukou, I always feel small,
How short a person's life will be among all things in this world, maybe grasping youth is the most important thing we have to do in this life.

it's here,
The space is cheerful, surrounded by mountains, densely covered with pine forests, lush grassland, and abundant sunshine. It is a natural forest bathing place like a paradise.

People have this feeling,
When you are in a noisy city,
When staying in an air-conditioned room for a long time, after strong winds and sandstorms, when the weather is cloudy, you will feel dizzy, weak, chest tight, tired, and work efficiency is low. On the contrary, when you are in the green nature, you will feel clear-headed and comfortable~

Xiaoduo really likes to immerse her body and mind in nature~

In the scenic area, there are wonderful stunt performances~

Thousands of miles of wind and smoke are shining, and He Lanxi is pale.
The sky is full of clouds from Zisai, and people are watching the sunset from the tall buildings.
The distant trees connect the village fans with greenery in the evening, and the clouds and solitary birds dangle in the mountains.
Yu Qiaoqiao sang back to the sandy path, and the cypress leaves and pine flowers were fragrant all over the city.
Overnight in the scenic spot, you can not only see the charming night of Helan Mountain, but also the running red deer, jumping blue sheep and the blue-eared pheasant in Ningxia...

it's getting late,
We decided to set up camp here. After setting up the tent together, we looked at the places in the depths of the woods that were illuminated by the setting sun. The warm sunshine was really beautiful. Perhaps, tonight's night is really suitable for stargazing.

How many people remember that the sky was full of stars and the Milky Way was brilliant.
But with the development of society, such a scene in the city has become a dream.
How many people ever remember the excitement when a shooting star streaked across the sky?
But now, there are no meteors streaking across the sky of the city.

How many people recall the starry sky and shooting stars, and how many people look forward to seeing such a scene? How many people think that the stars and shooting stars in the sky have become memories and cannot appear again.

Standing on the Golden Summit of Helan Mountain, which is nearly 3,000 meters above sea level,
Looking up at the sky, the starry sky once came back to me in an instant, especially the vast Milky Way, which is even more fascinating. Standing on the top of the mountain, listening to the wind blowing pines and waves, and feeling the light of meteors passing by from time to time, everything is so beautiful.

Under the mountain, the lights in the city of Yinchuan are brilliant,
Accompanied by the stars in the sky, it is a magnificent picture.

the night is getting dark,
The dark blue sky turned purple, and the stars all over the sky came out,
The cool wind blew through the valley, my husband and I came out of the tent, sat on the grass and looked at the stars in the sky. There are so many stars, I heard that there is always a star in the sky that represents me. Mr. pointed to the brightest star and said that it was me. I pointed to the star next to it and said to my husband, that star is you.

"The sky is as cool as water at night, sit and watch Altair Vega" may be talking about the current situation. The cool night at Suyukou is always so charming, the dark purple starry sky hangs over me and my husband. It was very quiet around, and occasionally a few insects could be heard. The breeze blows across our faces, I am with my husband and the stars in the sky, I have forgotten that I am there, and I only have you in my eyes. It's a good night~

Stars, night, Suyukou and you, another memory~

Helan Mountain Rock Paintings - Love in front of Helan Mountain

"You are in front of the window / staring at the words on the inscription / I am quietly admiring / your face that I love so much" Jay Chou's "Love in BC" came from the earphones, and you and I are here in Helan In the mountains, look at the beautiful scenery of these mountains.

The geological history of Helan Mountain is as long as 2 billion years.
In the Mesoproterozoic world about 1.55 billion years ago, the Helan Mountain area broke into the sea.
The mountain is majestic, like a galloping horse, stretching for hundreds of kilometers. The peaks of the mountains overlap, the cliffs and valleys are steep, overlooking the Yellow River Hetao and the Ordos Plateau to the east. With its majestic body, it has created the "South of the Yangtze River" and raised the children of "Ningxia" for thousands of years.

The picture on the rock,
Showing us the past of Helan Mountain in the primitive era.
Those smoke-like past events may be a war between tribes, or a great victory over nature, or just an ordinary love story, but they all touched the hearts of my husband and me. It is precisely because of these infinite fantasies that I find the charm here so great.

Helankou rock painting scenic spot has beautiful scenery and peculiar landscape. On both sides of the more than 900-meter valley from "Shuiguan" to "Lugou Kiln", there are legends everywhere.
On the north slope of Helankou Valley, there is a stone cave where green snakes often come in and out. According to legend, a hunter passed by here in ancient times and saw that the cave was wide enough to accommodate one's body, cool and pleasant, so he went into the cave to lie down and sleep, dreaming of a green snake biting his body. After waking up, he saw two snakes copulating on his crotch, without any intention of hurting anyone, so he gently withdrew from the hole. On that day, 2 green sheep and 8 pheasants were hunted, and when they returned with a full load, the two snakes had disappeared. Since then, when hunters travel, every time they take a nap in the cave, the prey will be abundant, so this cave is named Spirit Snake Cave. In the old days, hunters often worshiped the snake cave every year on the Waking of Insects Day, in order to hunt successfully. The book "Zhou Gong Interpretation of Dreams" says: "The dream of being bitten by a snake indicates great luck."

I looked at the primitive man in the rock painting gallery, what was he portraying?
Is the head on the rock the woman he loved, why did he draw it so seriously, why did he carve this woman. Maybe it was really love. He loved that woman deeply, and then that woman died of illness. In his grief, he carved that woman on the rock and also in his heart. Their love may be ordinary, or it may be full of legends, but it happened in front of Helan Mountain, maybe this is the reason why it is engraved.

Petroglyphs are pictures drawn and carved on rocks by human ancestors.
In the hinterland of Helan Mountain, which is more than 200 kilometers long from north to south, there are nearly 6,000 mysterious and strange petroglyphs.
They are engraved on the rock cliffs stretching more than 800 meters on both sides of the Helankou Canyon of Helan Mountain. They vividly record the life scenes of the primitive ancestors grazing, offering sacrifices, hunting, fighting, and producing 3,000 to 10,000 years ago.

It has become a cultural treasure house for us to study the history of human culture, religion, and primitive art today. Following this colorful kaleidoscope of petroglyphs, we can glimpse the interesting social life of ancient nomads, arousing our awareness of the unity of human beings and understanding the deep roots of our human beings.

Helankou is not only a place rich in ancient rock paintings,
It is also the sacrificial center of the primitive nomadic people, and it is also the location of the ancient village with rich folk culture at the eastern foot of Helan Mountain.

At the same time, there are also ancient buildings in the scenic area, such as the architectural ruins of the Xixia temple, the water gate in the Ming Dynasty, the stone sentry tower in the Ming Dynasty, the Dragon King Temple in the Qing Dynasty, the Temple of the Earth, and the Temple of the God of the Sheepfold, as if telling us that it has disappeared forever. The past tenaciously proves the difficult survival process of human beings, and tells the endless pursuit and hope of human beings.

It seems to see:
In the early morning, the chirping of birds and the hissing of insects intertwined and lingered on the vast grassland. Accompanied by a crisp whistle, a group of primitive people woke up from their sleep. They gathered together from all over the place, and after a while, they started a day of bustling life.

Xiaoduo feels that this petroglyph looks cute, a bit like a child's drawing, so cute~

Can you see what this painting is about?

Lycium barbarum trees can be seen everywhere, and it was only when I came here that I realized that Ningxia is also the "hometown of wolfberry"!

I ran into a small gecko, and I heard from the tour guide that there are elks here, but they are not artificially raised, and they come and go freely~
The freedom not to be kept in captivity is probably the best protection for them!

Xixia Mausoleum - The stars light up the lights for you

The vast grasslands, the majestic Helan Mountains, the Xixia Royal Tombs under the sunset,
This is probably the most beautiful sunset that Xiaoduo has seen this year. I really can’t use any words to describe the beautiful scenery and mood at that time~
I contracted a royal tomb and took many photos that Xiaoduo likes very much.
I feel that this place will definitely be overcrowded in the future, but the scenic spot is really huge, so let’s take a look at the picture first:

Many photos were taken with the help of friends in the same industry, and some were taken by us with a tripod. The following is dog food~
It feels like the whole world is ours now, O(∩_∩)O haha~
I can shoot whatever I want, no one bothers me at all, and no passers-by get into the shot, I am so happy!

It is so beautiful,
We hurriedly called our friends to have a "crazy shot",
This is probably Xiaoduo's favorite group photo. All the movements and expressions are expressed from the heart, and there is no need to deliberately modify the expression!
This is really super suitable for travel photography! Super suitable for travel photography! Super suitable for travel photography!
Say important things three times! ! !

How about a dance together?

The wind messed up my hair, but I'm really happy~
I can take beautiful pictures with you, and Xiaoduo wants to take pictures when she gets old! ! !

Mr. Liao will be 24 soon,
Happy birthday to you, may you grow more and more handsome,
The cooking is getting better and better, the temper is getting better and better, eat less betel nuts and drink more water, brush your teeth sooner or later~
(PS: Health comes first, happiness comes second!)

Is Xiaoduo heavy? We only weigh 88 pounds, and when I came back to the photo, I saw Mr. Liao’s unlovable expression and smiled~~~

It seems quite natural to pose like this, praise the one who is getting better at posing!

O(∩_∩)O haha~ Thanks Xiaomao for taking the photos for us!

Time to cut your hair, Mr. Liao!

Running around with the camera in her arms, looking for a seat, Xiaoduo seems to like photography more and more!

There are more and more props, such as my favorite rabbit ears, the inspiration of [Little Fairy Tale] comes from here!

Really happy to fly!

Let's see Mr. Liao show off his skills~

Tsk tsk tsk... I don't know how long I can last with this little dancing skill, I'm afraid I have to give it back to the teacher!

Serious always makes me laugh!

I heard that the ancient Western Xia Dynasty was once a glorious dynastic empire,
Although little known in the long river of history, it occupies an important position.
Ningxia On the Gobi Desert here stands the ancient oriental pyramid - the Tomb of the Western Xia Kings,
There is the place where the Tangut emperor of Xixia is buried. The royal tombs are adjacent to Helan Mountain in the west and Yinchuan Plain in the east. Looking at these royal tombs, I feel extremely mysterious.

The sun shines on the Gobi Desert and the yellow sand hills here. At dusk and sunset, the roads are criss-crossing around the mausoleum. My husband and I can live our two-person world here again, haha.

Surrounded by endless plains,
The boundless yellow sand stretches to the horizon.

Gold shrouded our surroundings, like a beautiful fairy tale world.

The golden sun shines down on the earth,
The chirping of birds and the hissing of insects interweave and linger on the vast grassland, spreading out like a picture scroll in front of our eyes!
Until the sunset, let's stay and watch the stars and the moon~
O(∩_∩)Ohaha~ I learned how to shoot the starry sky, Monkey Kaisen!

Tonight's night is the same as that night in Suyukou,
Even more beautiful than that night. Early on the stars lit up here,
We set up tents on the Gobi Desert and looked around here. Although I felt a little terrified when Wang Ling was around, I was lying in my husband's arms, and the terrified panic disappeared long ago.
Hee hee, tonight in my husband's arms, I gradually fell asleep while looking at the stars~

Dreamy starry sky and mysterious Ningxia!

I took several hours of star trails~

Qingtongxia Grand Canyon—Meeting is a kind of fate

It is said that in the long life, meeting is a kind of fate. Coming here, I get it...

The flow of nine bends converges with bronze, and the cliffs are red in the sunset.
This is the last canyon in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, known as the "Little Three Gorges of the Yellow River".

There are many scenic spots such as the Qingtongxia Barrage Dam, Ningxia Water Conservancy Expo, and the Chinese Yellow River Altar located on both sides of the Yellow River. Here, the Yellow River culture, Xixia culture, Hui culture and the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River on the frontier are concentrated here.

There is Dujiangyan in the south and Qingtongxia in the north.
My husband and I came here, looking at the water of the Yellow River,
There are so many attractions, I think it is really worth visiting the Qingtongxia Grand Canyon this time.

The water of the Yellow River comes up from the sky, rushes to the sea and never returns.
Looking at the reeds beside the Yellow River water, there will always be some wild birds flying by here. It really feels like the dead are like a husband, and they will never give up day and night.

into the hall,
The history of human struggle against the Yellow River for thousands of years is displayed here.
The beauty of Ningxia is preserved here. We look at these histories and marvel at the greatness of human beings. Perhaps, our encounter with Qingtongxia Grand Canyon is really a kind of fate~

Dayu Cultural Museum

The 108 Pagodas here are located on the west bank of the Qingtongxia Yellow River Grand Canyon.
It is the largest existing group of ancient pagodas in China. The 108th Pagoda is a Buddhist monument built in the Western Xia Dynasty. I stood here looking at the tower, and my mind was filled with mystery and desolation.

one hundred and eight towers,
The total area of the scenic spot is 6980 square meters. There are three special areas, the left is the Tallinn Temple, the middle is the core area of the tower group, and the right is the Tallinn Expo.
One hundred and eight towers are a large group of towers composed of 108 overturned bowl towers, named for the number of towers. The pagodas are built step by step according to the mountain situation. There are 12 levels in total. Arranged in the shape of an isosceles triangle.

Yellow River Tower Yellow River Altar—Dreams are not so far away

Everyone says that dreams are the most precious thing in this world,
Sometimes it is so real, and sometimes it is so far away.

Both the Yellow River Tower and the Yellow River Altar are famous scenic spots in Qingtongxia.
It is also the most famous resort at the source of the Yellow River. Some people say that the Yellow River is the place where human dreams start and the birthplace of all happiness. When I came here, I felt that maybe the dream is really out of reach.

The Yellow River Altar is a landmark building on the Golden Bank of the Yellow River.
As a holy altar to worship the Yellow River and thank the Yellow River, it always attracts visitors from all over the world.

My husband and I came here, such a beautiful scenery is the most suitable for taking pictures. hee hee~

without adding color,
Xiaoduo is integrated with the colors of nature, using photos to record this beautiful moment~

Seeing the flying of wild birds, the white clouds are here, the mountains are rolling, and the Yellow River is soupy.
I can't help but think of Meng Haoran's poem "The Yellow River is far above the white clouds, an isolated city of Wanren Mountain".

Sand Lake - Son of the Sea

I have heard that the lake is the son of the sea.
Shahu should be Dahai's favorite youngest son, because he was born the cutest.

Some places, although you have never been, but it has been in your dreams. Sand Lake is such a place. Everywhere I look, it's all about you.

As soon as you enter the scenic spot
Attracted by the blooming purple flowers,
Happy to take pictures in the flowers~

The Shahu Scenic Spot is a pearl that combines the beauty of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River with the grandeur of the Saibei desert.
The blue sand lake was swayed by the microwave, and the setting sun dyed the white clouds with a layer of gold. My husband and I sat on the desert and watched the distant sunset together.

Strolling on the east side of the lake,
Feel the fragrance of birds and flowers all the way,
The air is fresh and leisurely~

The sand lake is dominated by natural landscapes, and some reed islands are scattered in the lake, which makes the vast waters not monotonous, adds infinite charm to the sand lake, and also provides a home for birds to live and multiply.

The vast desert is like a lake embedded in a mirror,
The water of the lake is as clear as emerald. Calm and natural, the sky is high and the clouds are clear, and the surrounding beauty is unobstructed.

To the desert is to play all kinds of desert off-road vehicles,
Experience the largest Big Mac off-road vehicle in the Northwest,
The stimulation and scream~

Everyone says watching the sunset together is the most romantic thing,
Although I don't think so, but I think this is the happiest thing.

Because this will always give people an illusion that the setting sun will always remind people of their old age, and it is always best to be together for a lifetime.

From the scenery of Xiushui in the south of the Yangtze River,
To the majestic desert of Saibei,
Feel the magical shuttle of time and space~

Shuttle through the maze of reeds by boat,
Surprised by the birds in the depths of the reeds,
Feel the beautiful artistic conception like a Zixia fairy in Journey to the West~

The lonely smoke in the desert is straight, and the sun is setting in the long river.
The scenery in the distance is not only blue and majestic, but more like an ancient battlefield with smoldering smoke.

On the boundless Gobi Desert, there is a sad and desolate patina, all of which are the scene of the sand lake. Dahai's son is really lovable!
TISPs:
Going to Shahu by car, the Beijing-Tibet Expressway/109 National Highway cannot be reached. It is temporarily recommended that Zhengyuan Street in Yinchuan City go all the way north, and the same city highway can be reached through Nuanquan. (Use Gaode, Baidu and other mobile navigation apps to go to Shahu, it will be more convenient to travel)

Shuidonggou——You are the clear stream of summer

I have seen your enthusiasm,
touched your body,
You are the clear stream of summer, the only beauty in this world
It is my luck to meet you, Shuidonggou~

My husband and I came here in early summer,
Shuidonggou is so different from everything else.

In the endless wilderness, there is such a blue gem and beautiful jade embedded. You said you wanted to give me the biggest gem in the world, so you brought me here.

towering walls,
swaying reeds,
The rippling lake,
Cheerful ox carts, camel carts, sheep carts, donkey carts...
The groom's high-pitched and loud Northwest singing, you will find out the story behind Shuidonggou when you walk slowly!
(PS: This is the one with the most means of transportation in the scenic spots that Xiaoduo has visited, not one of them!)

The Shuidonggou ruins were excavated around here.
Shuidonggou is the earliest Paleolithic cultural site excavated in China.
Known as "the birthplace of Chinese prehistoric archaeology", humans once lived here.
Here they survive, develop, and leave their mark.

Thousands of years later,
All this is happening before our eyes again.
This is the beautiful Shuidonggou ruins, an ornament embedded next to a gemstone.

The unique Yardang landform of Shuidonggou has created countless wonderful landscapes here, recording the endless activities of human beings here 30,000 years ago.

The nearby Shuidonggou Village is a cave-style and crypt-style living room created by the ancestors in the north. There are 29 settlements here, which vividly record the lives of the ancestors.

The ancient city wall has stood here for thousands of years.
The Ming Great Wall is also located here. Ten miles in Nagano, thousands of miles of clear sky.

There are vicissitudes everywhere, and there is an ancient beauty in the whole. Standing on the Great Wall, you can have a panoramic view of the Mu Us Desert in the north and the Shuidonggou Scenic Area in the south.

The turquoise lake water, the crisp birdsong,
In the surrounding area of Shui Se Tian, all of these are out of tune with the surroundings, but they seem so novel. The beautiful Shuidonggou is really nice!

Now this coolness,
This piece of land, this piece of jade. Blue, yellow, green so many colors bring together your charm.

got windy,
The weeds in the valley in the distance are blowing with the wind,
The warm wind blows over my face and my husband's hair, I don't know how happy I am. The past was like a white cloud, and I always lingered in those two worlds with my husband.

On the other side of Shuidonggou is Inner Mongolia.
This is a scenic spot that spans two provinces, and it is also a great place, O(∩_∩)O haha~ Play two provinces in one day!

The scenic spot is really not ordinary, and there are wonderful performances that must not be missed!
Xiaoduo just caught up with the final ending, what a pity!

Tibetan soldier cave

I won't tell you that it's super cool in here~

Stay in the hole and don't want to come out!

When children come here, they can also experience the projects of drilling wood for fire and archaeological excavation~

Cute big brother ostrich!

There are also many cute and "unique" animals here!
For example, this little goat, when I greeted the goat in front, the goat in the back wanted to run away with my hat in its mouth. Did it treat Xiaoduo's hat as food? O(∩_∩)O haha~

so cute!

The elk is full of spirituality, when it is close to it, it feels that it has lost its spirituality, maybe it belongs to nature!

For Ningxia, Shuidonggou is its summer clear stream;
For me, Mr. will always be my summer stream.
Shuidonggou, you are the summer stream for my husband and I.

Life seems to always have more pain than joy,
The joy of meeting is always no match for the pain of separation.

But no matter how painful it was, I never regretted meeting Ningxia.
I remember the good six days we had together, all the good times we had together. But now everything is in the past, and we will return to the present after all. The bright moon is auspicious, and this song is known all over the world, why not look at the galaxy thousands of miles away? There are so many farewells tonight, there will be a beautiful woman in the coming year, I hope to pass through time and meet again.

I want to walk with you in Zhenbei Fort;
I want you to take me to see the stars of the Royal Tomb again;
I think we meet Ningxia again

Ningxia,
I don't have the ability to describe you in fancy words,
I can't record your beauty with transparent language, I want to use photos to record your beauty as much as possible. I will cherish the days when we met, I will cherish the days when we met, and hope that the beauty of the past will always remain in my heart.

Among thousands of people, I met you; in this short time, I fell in love with you.
