God-level hotel on National Highway 315! Stay in a Mars base on the Qinghai Gobi Desert

Stay in a little white house in the uninhabited area of Qinghai, step outside and you’re in the vast Gobi wilderness, instantly understanding the meaning of "lonely yet romantic." 🚗 How to get there? Preferred method: Self-drive or charter a car, about a 1-hour drive from Golmud city center. Just navigate directly to "Lonely Interstellar Luxury Hotel." The hotel’s Zone D has a free parking lot, 400 meters to the left after entering, on the left side of the main road, and there are 24-hour clean restrooms available. The biggest surprise is the dome star room! Floor heating + oxygen generator are super thoughtful, capturing the Milky Way late at night, with shooting stars exploding right overhead is truly god-level 🌠 During the day, ride an ATV to Dongtai Jinaier Lake for floating desserts, watch the sunset on the cliff in the evening, and even the toiletries have astronaut patterns—detail lovers will be ecstatic! 🎢 Must-try entertainment list 1. ATV off-road sand racing: Step on the gas and cross the Yadan landforms, reaching Dongtai Jinaier Lake along the way, an 8km route with a full experience. 2. Stargazing: Lie in bed in the glass dome room and watch the Milky Way, the butler will also teach you star photography skills, the moment a shooting star passes is super healing. 3. Special experiences: From July to October, there are bonfire and fireworks parties, a 70-meter-high Yadan slide, rock climbing, and a Mars playground for kids to have fun all day. Don’t stay in ordinary inns on the Qinghai-Gansu loop anymore. One night here = saving thousands on stargazing + off-road fees, worth crying over! 📍 Address: South side of 894 km mark on Golmud National Highway 315 ⚠️ Tips: Book in advance! Clear skies make the stars clearer, remember to bring plenty of sunscreen and power banks~ Note: Navigation signals in the Gobi area are unstable, it’s recommended to download offline maps before departure; some sections of National Highway 315 are bumpy, so slow down when driving.
