159***20Zhenbeibao Western Film City is more like a "dream space," its value far exceeding that of ordinary scenic spots. It uses the most rustic loess and ruins to carry the cinematic memories of generations. Here, you are not just a tourist, but a participant stepping into the stories of the movies. With proper expectation management, this trip will surely become an unforgettable stop on your Northwest China journey.

大 牛Ningxia's two most famous mountains are the Helan Mountains in the northwest and the Liupan Mountains in the southeast. The Helan Mountains block wind and snow, creating a vast area of wine grape cultivation on its eastern side—the largest in China—and Ningxia wines are gaining increasing fame and international acclaim. The mountains aren't difficult to climb, but they possess a distinctly Northwest character: deeper colors, steep cliffs, and tall, sparse trees, quite different from southern vegetation. Even in summer, climbing them isn't hot; a cool breeze makes it very comfortable. This pillar of the Northwest is truly remarkable.

有理喻的人0A less-visited tourist spot. Because a cold front had just passed through, the sky was incredibly blue and the air was fantastic. It's about a one-and-a-half-hour drive from Yinchuan, and the road conditions were good. Upon arrival, I opted for the most basic ticket and didn't take a boat (because it was too cold). Walking around the scenic area and walking across the Yellow River Iron Bridge downstream was enough for me.
44.5/5有理喻的人0I specifically visited this place because of the opening credits of "A Chinese Odyssey." Seeing Zixia boating among the reeds, accompanied by a melodious tune, brought back memories of thirty years ago. It takes about an hour to drive here from Yinchuan. The price is a bit expensive; the entrance fee plus transportation costs nearly 200 yuan per person. It feels overdeveloped, with too many unnecessary facilities added for commercial purposes, disrupting the original tranquility and serene natural beauty. The roaring seaplanes and speedboats, and the incredibly long return trip (from the island to the sand dunes to the pier, it takes about 20 to 30 minutes to walk). If you're short on time, this isn't a must-see attraction in Yinchuan.

M46***54I went to the hot springs again, this time with my parents. The hot spring environment is still very good, the water quality is good, the sand therapy is great, the privacy is good, the staff has a good service attitude and is kind. There is a staff member named Chen Shuxia who is very good. She took the initiative to help get towels and serve tea. She repeatedly reminded us to take our mobile phones and valuables with us and make sure they are waterproof. My parents were very satisfied with this hot spring trip

M44***63The tour guide Dopest was very professional. The two and a half hours were full of useful information. The explanation was lively and interesting. He was also very enthusiastic in interacting with the children. He also recommended local delicious and fun things to do.

samlu007I didn't make an appointment to go to the Ningxia Museum, so I made an appointment to go to the Geological Museum instead. There are three and a half floors, but only two floors can be visited. I think an hour is enough. There are many children on the first floor, which is quite noisy. However, many real objects in the Ningxia Museum are placed for close viewing, which is very good.

Anonymous userThe direct bus is very convenient. The outbound trip has several stops, and due to the departure schedule, it took about an hour. The return trip took half an hour to reach the West Bus Station. My age exempted me from admission, so I went to see the scenery and didn't participate in any activities. That's why I didn't go to Shapotou. It was very, very, very crowded, and I didn't take an electric car. The walk from the main gate to the ancient Yellow River ferry crossing took less than an hour. Occasionally, an electric car passed by, but there were no pedestrians at all. It was like a private tour, and the scenery wasn't particularly scenic. If you have the money, I recommend taking the electric car round trip. Standing in the desert and looking at the Yellow River is a unique experience. I only spent some time in the desert near the ancient Yellow River ferry crossing, but didn't explore the area, so I'm not sure what other scenery there is. There is a Crescent Lake near the main gate. Young people from other places can use their airline passports to waive the entrance fee.

M35***19As a local, I've never been there before and thought it was just a few earthen mounds. But after I went there, I found that it was indeed just a few earthen mounds, hahahaha. However, the museum is really well done and exceeded my expectations. The overall architectural style is very consistent with the Western Xia Royal Tombs and is very photogenic. The exhibits are also worth seeing. I recommend it.

仿佛快乐Lanshan Park is undoubtedly the most popular tourist attraction in Yinchuan. The park features a large, shimmering lake. Beside the lake is a standard football field. Surrounding the field on three sides are tall stands. If that were all, it would just be a decent park. The most striking feature is the row of buildings atop the stands. These buildings are decorated in a classic European style. Those who watched Saint Seiya as children will remember the Zodiac Palaces; this architectural style is reminiscent of Greek mythology. Actually, this row of buildings has no practical significance; it's just a long corridor. The focus is on the design, but even that is enough to make it incredibly popular online. #FreePark #Yinchuan #Ningxia #Stadium #Park #CityPark #Stadium #WeekendGetaway #CaptureBeautifulMoments #NingxiaTourism
