    "Zhang Shu's colorful Danxia night tour is really worth it, the price is super high. Buying night tour tickets can also watch Danxia at dusk. You can check the ticket at 19:15 to go to the scenic spot to watch the sunset. At 20:30, we took the bus to check the ticket and entered the night tour. We saw various lights hitting the mountain along the way. There were deer jumping, to the entrance of Vientiane Tulin Valley, and walked into the observation deck. You can see the various rare animals under the Qilian Mountain created by laser projection. Walking in the valley at night, there is a live performance of the Yugu people at the end. It is particularly shocking and highly recommended!"

Zhangye Danxia is mainly composed of red gravel, sandstone and mudstone. Visitors can gaze upon its thousands of cliffs and mountains, dyed a beautiful shade of crimson. When the sun shines down on the mountains, they echo with even more fantastic colors!

    "Dunhuang Night Market can be described as very lively, because of the Rizhao relationship, it is very dark, and the night market here only starts at 8:30. There are many choices to eat, distinctive features, and the atmosphere in the West is full. There are also many small accessories, exquisite and dazzling. Going to the other end, it is still a bit crowded, pay attention to personal belongings. It is recommended not to drive, I am afraid that there is no place to stop for a long time."
