#Local food Try the authentic Mongolian breakfast. The decoration is very unique and ethnic. Order directly at the door. The service is OK, not as bad as the reviews say. Ordering, serving, adding dishes, and paying are all in order, although it was packed during the National Day holiday. The hand-pulled meat is great, only salt, no other seasoning, and the meat is good. The mutton bun is big and the ingredients are solid. Three adults and two children, one pound of meat, four buns, a pot of milk tea, two bowls of porridge, a portion of fruit noodles, and later packed a portion of milk tofu. The total cost was less than 200, which I personally think is worth it.
The "sea" in Wuhai is actually a lake, located in the western part of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. It is also called Lion City and is well-known to the public because of the movie "Wuhai". It is half lake and half sand, broken, lonely and full of beauty. In the evening, looking west on the road around the lake, the sunset, Wuhai Lake and the Ulan Buh Desert in the distance set off each other, with a beautiful scenery of "smoke rising from the desert and the setting sun on the long river". It was the first time I saw the desert and such a scenery. I was excited but more calm and comfortable. Attractions 1⃣️ Manbala Monk Temple: A Tibetan-style temple hanging on a cliff, known as the Little Potala Palace, not only has a beautiful and solemn appearance, but it is also a Mongolian medicine training center, where you can explore the ancient and mysterious history of Mongolian medicine. 2⃣️ Jinsha Bay: Known as China's Morocco, a large area of desert is golden and shining in the sun. Wearing bright clothes to take pictures is very photogenic, and there are also exciting rides such as off-road vehicles. 3⃣️ Wuhai Lake: A place where the desert and the "sea" coexist. It is a great place for taking photos. It also includes many exciting and fun activities such as jet skis, water flying fish, water flying people, desert off-road vehicles, desert karts, etc. 4⃣️ Longyou Bay National Wetland Park: It integrates the desert, the Yellow River, and wetland reeds. It is an important transit station for global bird migration. Here you can feel the magnificent scenery of nature. 5⃣️ Gandel Mountain: A landmark of Wuhai City. Not only can you climb to the top of the mountain to overlook the city scenery of Wuhai City, but there is also a huge statue of Genghis Khan on the top of the mountain. It is said to be as high as a 27-story building. You can see it no matter where you are in the city. Eat Daxi Mag: A dish with fried rice added to homemade yogurt. The yogurt is mellow and the fried rice is crispy. Every bite is full of milk flavor. Store recommendation: Lao Ama Meng Restaurant Meng's Hot Pot: Most of the local fresh beef and mutton are used, because most of them are free-range grazing by local herdsmen, and the meat tastes more delicious. Store recommendation: Cuijia Xiaoyuan Copper Pot Hot Pot, Juxingzhai Barbecue: Big kidneys, pork cartilage, and mutton skewers are sizzling on the stove, and paired with a bottle of cold beer, it's so delicious. Shop recommendations: Old Place BBQ, Freeman BBQ Accommodation: Near Wuhai Station, convenient for travel Photography location 1️⃣The Internet-famous dead tree, after arriving by boat, turn left behind the house 🏠 and go around the hillside to see it, about 20 minutes walk 2️⃣The red bench opposite the dead tree, you can take pictures of the desert + sea if you take pictures facing it 3️⃣The hillside opposite the dead tree, climb up and sit down to take pictures of the dead tree + sea, it's very comfortable to contract this desert sea Play time 1-2h ⚠️tips: 1️⃣Go for good weather!

It is recommended to take a boat, which takes 5-10 minutes to arrive. You can also experience the desert sea by boat. 3️⃣ There is a speedboat on the shore that takes you to the desert, 50💰 for a round trip, 100💰 for a round trip 4️⃣ Pay attention to sun protection❗️ Pay attention to sun protection❗️ Pay attention to sun protection❗️ Ultraviolet rays are very strong
