My spending habits collapsed after a 2-day trip to Ningxia

Ningxia Travel Guide Ningxia, the "Jiangnan beyond the Great Wall," truly has a different kind of charm! With deserts, the Yellow River, oases, and a rich ethnic culture, a trip to Ningxia will definitely open your eyes! Must-see attractions: • Zhenbeibao Western Film Studio: A very unique film studio where many movies have been filmed. Put on ancient costume, and you're the main character! • Shapotou: The perfect combination of desert and the Yellow River. Sandboarding, camel riding, and riding sheepskin rafts are so much fun! • Western Xia Mausoleums: Mysterious Western Xia history and spectacular mausoleum architecture allow you to learn about a different ancient civilization. • Helan Mountain Rock Paintings: Ancient rock paintings record the lives and wisdom of the ancestors and are super artistic! • Shuidonggou: Unique landforms, rich historical sites, and the mysterious experience of the Tibetan soldier cave. • Liupanshan National Forest Park: With its beautiful mountains and clear waters and fresh air, it is a great place to escape the summer heat. • China Yellow River Tower: Climb the tower for a panoramic view of the Yellow River and learn about Yellow River culture. Food recommendations: • Mutton Noodles: Ningxia's mutton is super fresh and delicious, and it tastes amazing with the hand-pulled noodles! • Hui Snacks: A bowl of various Ningxia snacks is rich in flavor and super satisfying! • Babao Tea: A Ningxia specialty tea drink that is sweet and delicious, nourishing, and refreshing. • Spicy Paste: A bit like spicy hot pot, but with a more unique flavor that is addictively spicy! • Sanzi: Crispy and delicious traditional snacks that are great as snacks! Transportation: Transportation in Ningxia is quite convenient. Yinchuan has an airport with direct flights or connecting flights. You can choose a taxi or bus for transportation in the city. If you are going to the scenic spots, it is recommended to charter a car or join a tour group, which is more worry-free. Accommodation: • Yinchuan City Hotel: A variety of choices, moderate prices, convenient for shopping, eating, and traveling. • Desert Tent: Experience desert camping in Shapotou and watch the stars at night. It's super romantic! • Homestay: Experience the folk customs of Ningxia and stay comfortably and pleasantly. Tips: • The temperature difference between day and night in Ningxia is large, so remember to bring suitable clothes! 🧥 • When playing in the desert, protect the environment and don't litter! 🏜️ • When visiting scenic spots, follow the arrangements of the tour guide or staff and pay attention to safety! 🚶‍♀️
