The campground is inside the Impression Tengger Scenic Area. There are campgrounds all around (I checked and found that almost all the ones offering free Tengger tickets are located nearby). Sandstorm offers the best value. 😁 The service was excellent. Mr. Li contacted me right after booking to confirm how to get to the campground. (If you drive, you can only reach the scenic area entrance; it's all desert inside and you have to change cars. There's no guide, and you don't know the way. 😂) Tengger activities are right next to it. The hotel has a bonfire, iron flower making, fireworks, and a karaoke bar. It's all quite lively. After 5 or 6, when the sun isn't so strong, it's wonderful to walk along the sand dunes for two or three hours. It's refreshing and you can even watch the sunset. The shared bathrooms are also quite spacious, with lockers and benches for storing clothes. A tip for you ladies: wash and change into your regular shoes before returning to your tent (you'll still get sandy if you wear slippers. 😂) It rained this time, so unfortunately I couldn't see the stars, but it was a special experience. Even with the strong wind and heavy rain, sand didn't get into the tent, which was great. 😀

The cabins are excellent value for money. The desert heat is intense during the day, and the air conditioning is very comfortable. In the evenings, we went out to play in the sand. The shared restrooms, while not as convenient as private bathrooms, are acceptable. The bathrooms and showers are clean, with plenty of hot water. Hair dryers are available in the bathrooms and cabins. My biggest complaint was the restaurant. We ordered a copper pot with two bowls of rice (only half a bowl). We, two adults and one child, asked if we could get more. Initially, we were told to add more, but the waiter serving the rice was grim and reluctantly gave us half a bowl. After a while, I went in to get a spoon, and they asked me to pay the 3 yuan for the rice. They hadn't told me to at first, and I ended up not getting much of the meat in the copper pot. I went to the store to buy instant noodles and cooked them in the copper pot. Overall, the value is acceptable. Don't expect too much from a campsite; you can enjoy everything. If you can, choose a room with a private bathroom. The service was excellent both on arrival and departure, including help calling a taxi and carrying my luggage.

After booking the room, the owner contacted and sent us the check-in location in the desert. After arriving at the parking lot, the owner personally drove an off-road vehicle to pick us up in the desert. The room was clean, tidy and spacious, and the bathroom was convenient. The owner was attentive and available on call. The bonfire party was also very lively. It was a very good experience.

We drove here by ourselves, and the owner sent us the desert check-in location on WeChat in advance. When we got to the parking lot, the owner came to pick us up in person and take us to the desert hotel. The room was clean and tidy, with disposable toiletries provided. The public washing area was not far from the room. The bonfire at night was quite interesting. It was a good camping experience.

The hotel contacted us after we booked the room and sent us the parking lot location. When we arrived at the parking lot, the owner drove to pick us up and took us to the camp. The tents were spacious, clean, and neatly arranged. During the day, you can enjoy desert activities such as camel riding, desert surfing cars, and sandboarding. There was a bonfire party and fireworks at night, which was very lively. The housekeeper, Brother Li, provided good service. I recommend it.
