Things to do in Pingluo

The direct shuttle bus between Yinchuan and Shahu Lake is incredibly convenient! Multiple pick-up points in the city, scheduled departures, and a direct route to the scenic area. Clean vehicles, steady driving, pure sightseeing with no shopping stops or hidden costs. Includes boat ticket. Return trip at 4:30 PM during the National Day holiday. Reasonable travel time and affordable price.

It's worth going to see the ancient city of Loulan that has been completely preserved in the desert!

The Helan Mountain rock paintings are worth seeing. The creators were primarily ancient northern nomadic peoples, including the Xiongnu, Xianbei, Tujue, and Dangxiang. They carved their lives and beliefs into the stones during their herding, hunting, and migrations. The most famous is the Sun God, which can only be seen by climbing a small hill. You can also see many argali sheep running and leaping within the scenic area.

Zhenbeibao Western Film City truly lives up to its reputation as a must-visit destination in Yinchuan. Built on the ruins of an ancient Ming and Qing dynasty fortress, it served as a filming location for movies like "A Chinese Odyssey" and "Red Sorghum." The rugged rammed earth walls are imposing and desolate, divided into three areas: the Ming City, the Qing City, and Old Yinchuan Street, each brimming with a sense of江湖 (jianghu, the world of martial arts and chivalry). The ancient loess fortress under the setting sun is exceptionally photogenic, making you feel as if you've stepped into a movie scene. The northwest winds and sandstorms are palpable, perfect for movie buffs and photography enthusiasts. Remember to bring sunscreen and stay hydrated; it's definitely worth a leisurely visit.

The building is grand and the facilities are good, but the introduction of the value of key cultural relics needs improvement. The museum should strive to leave a deeper impression on visitors.

1. This place is amazing! Although I was a bit confused when I entered, the beach buggy ride was super exciting and fun. Everyone on board, young and old, was very happy and didn't want to ride for too long! 2. Finally, we got to ride a camel! 3. There was hardly any queuing throughout the ride, which was so great!

I booked free admission for Mondays, but I still needed to buy a shuttle bus ticket, which didn't apply to the number of tombs I visited. Normally, you first visit the Western Xia Imperial Tombs Museum to learn about that period of history, then walk along a rather long path to take the shuttle bus. Generally, you visit Tomb No. 3 first, then take the shuttle bus and horse-drawn carriage to Tomb No. 4, and then take the shuttle bus back to the starting point. The overall route was smooth, and the shuttle bus service was quite timely. However, the distance from the entrance to the shuttle bus station is a bit far, which might be inconvenient for disabled or elderly tourists. Overall, it was a good experience.

It was super fun and incredibly exciting! Our whole family loved it. The vehicles were also super cool, and we took some great photos. Driving deep into the desert, the desert scenery was absolutely stunning.

Helan Mountain National Forest Park primarily offers a close-up view of the Helan Mountains. The mountain has relatively low vegetation cover and is mainly composed of rocks. You need to take a shuttle bus to the foot of the mountain, and then choose to take a cable car or hike to the summit (approximately 20-40 minutes). There are many snacks available on the mountain, as well as spectacular high-altitude acrobatic performances. Along the way, you can also spot wild animals such as blue sheep.

Xinghai Lake is located in the eastern part of Dawukou District, Shizuishan City. The Shanshui Avenue passes through the lake, with a total area of ​​43 square kilometers and a lake area of ​​more than 20 square kilometers. The scenic area consists of six distinctive scenic spots: Hundred Birds Singing, Golden Western Region, Nansha Sea, Crane Valley, Crescent Sea, and Egret Island.
