Our tour guide, Xiao Zhao, was very skilled. The desert crossing was thrilling and exciting, something I haven't experienced in a while. The aerial video was also excellent and highly recommended.
We recommend renting a car for a group of three with a large weight, as it will provide excellent comfort. Weather is also crucial; sunny weather will produce much better photos.
This Northwest-style film and television studio boasts a rich local character, having been used as a filming location for hundreds of films. It's a great place for those who enjoy film sets and take photos. It's also not far from the Helan Mountain Rock Paintings Scenic Area, making it a great place to visit as well.

Visit date: September 18th. Arrived at the scenic area at 10:00 AM and descended to the visitor center at 2:00 PM.
Route: First, take the sightseeing bus from the entrance to Songtao Mountain Villa, then buy tickets and take the cable car up to Qingsongling. From Qingsongling, walk to the canyon cable bridge.
We arrived just in time for the 12:00 PM canyon tightrope acrobatics show. After the show, we returned to Qingsongling and began our descent, following the sign for "Cherry Valley."
Note: The descent was sparsely populated due to the steep incline and gravel sections. Therefore, I saw very few people descending. Since I was traveling with my parents, who are in their 60s, I took extra care, so the descent took a bit longer. However, with fewer people, the canyon was quite quiet.
Tickets for the scenic area:
1) Entrance fee: Free for seniors over 60, so my parents were free.
2) Sightseeing bus: 20 RMB per person. Note: This ticket, like the entrance fee, must be purchased at the visitor center, not inside the scenic area.
3) Cable car and canyon cable bridge tickets can be purchased inside the scenic area.
Because I was traveling with an elderly person, I bought a package ticket for myself, which included an entrance ticket, a round-trip sightseeing bus, and a canyon cable bridge. The price was 110 yuan, which was quite reasonable. I bought the tickets needed by the elderly separately.
The scenery of the northwest is still refreshing for southerners. It is a mountain range connected to the mountain. There are stone mountains that are balder than limestone mountains, but on the other side are pine and cypress trees. There are also unique flora and fauna and fault landforms. Unfortunately, the Golden Summit and Rabbit Hole are not open to the public, so the playability is relatively low.

The vastness of Shahu Lake, its emerald waves shimmering like a dreamlike mist. Swaying reeds resemble the graceful dance of green fairies. Sand and water intertwine, creating a wondrous natural landscape. Stepping into this landscape, your heart follows the scenery, forgetting the hustle and bustle of life, only tranquility and poetry surround you, inviting you to enjoy this idyllic paradise together.
The Shahu Lake is quite interesting and suitable for taking children to play. There are cute pets and swans to feed, and adults can play various amusement projects. The environment inside is also good. But the route is very long. You have to go around in a big circle. If you buy a ticket and don't want to play in the middle, you still have to walk around in a circle before you can go back. The service attitude inside is also average. It's a pity not to come here, but it's a bit so-so after coming here.

It is more cost-effective to buy Line A for this scenic spot. Line B is to take a boat tour of the entire canyon and then go to Dayu Cultural Park, a newly built artificial scenic spot with no cultural heritage, but the 108 towers are quite shocking. You can walk around it and feel the changes of history.
The Qingtongxia Scenic Area is worth visiting. The environment is clean and tidy, and the service is good. However, the tourist resources are relatively few, and more cultural content can be considered. During this trip, Master Xiaotian provided thoughtful service, drove steadily, and waited patiently. It is worth recommending 👍

The whole experience was great. We didn't hire a tour guide and were traveling independently. The show was already in the afternoon. The customer service was very considerate and called to let us know the remaining showtimes. They also arranged a free car to take us from the Terracotta Warriors to the theater entrance. After arriving at the theater, we were treated like VIPs and sat in the first row the whole time! The experience was really great hahaha
Honestly one of the best things I've done in China, arrived just before a showing after a DiDi across from the mausoleum and was the only European person there. The staff made lots of effort and had an English translation headset which meant I could follow and the show itself was excellent. It moved from different areas throughout the show in different rooms and I got escorted very kindly each time to the front by a lovely member of staff and could see really well each time. Would massively recommend!

I can only say that the scenic area is very large and driving is relatively convenient. However, since we chartered a car, we were unable to go further after a certain point, which was really disappointing. We had to take the scenic bus instead. The scenic area is well-managed, no problem, but the experience was still not good. It's a two-hour drive from Baoji City. The weather is good, ranging from cool to cold. It's a good weekend trip, but this weekend it rained and was a bit cold. The cloudy weather made it impossible to take beautiful photos. The smell of cow, horse, and sheep manure was overwhelming, which was a lifesaver.
This was my second time at Guanshan Ranch, originally for the zipline. My kids had been there a few years ago and loved it, so now that they're grown, I wanted to try it again. Unexpectedly, the equipment is closed for maintenance until 2025. We each took a set of travel photos for Guanshan. The grasslands are photogenic, especially for the kids; every one is a masterpiece. We enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Guanshan Grassland and the herds of cattle and horses.
We found a small restaurant for lunch. It was really busy during peak season, so there was no shortage of customers, but the food was quite perfunctory. It was a bit overcast when we arrived, so the sun wasn't directly shining, but it was still very hot. We arrived at 10:40 AM and it was a cool 20 degrees.

I visited the main museum three years ago. Actually, the contents of the Qin and Han Dynasty Hall are all in this museum, so if you have been to the main museum, you don't need to go back to the Qin and Han Dynasty Hall. The guide Feifei's explanation was very good, but she only talked about the two main halls, the City and Mausoleum, and the Skills and Beauty. She didn't take the tour. She only talked about two additional cultural relics, which was a bit disappointing. Everything else was perfect.
As we all know, a visit to the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor is often "30% visual and 70% narration." Today, we were incredibly fortunate to not only be able to transform our small tour into a private one, but also to have a professional and engaging guide, Fuyao. With a humorous touch, she eloquently explained the history and culture of the Mausoleum, giving us a VIP perspective and making every sight vivid and profound.
The guide was incredibly attentive throughout the day, meticulously organizing the entire itinerary and pacifying each activity, bringing the Terracotta Warriors to life. While nameless, the Terracotta Warriors possess countless personalities. Through today's learning, we learned that they dedicated their lives to protecting the land and the people with their flesh and blood. The children were particularly interested in the driving principles of the bronze chariots, their braking mechanisms, and the intricate structure of the umbrella atop them—all of which she meticulously explained, including their origin, function, and historical background. This sparked their interest, fostered a deeper understanding of the artifacts, and strengthened their memory. Such a friendly and knowledgeable guide truly makes the trip to the Qin Mausoleum an experience that is both informative and interesting. I look forward to seeing you again next time I come.

This is a truly worthwhile place to visit. There are various NPCs within the campus, interactive games on the Silk Road side, and a performance every half hour or so. It's incredibly entertaining. A 5-6 hour stay is recommended. Be sure to try the costume change experience within the park.
The immersive experience is good, with a variety of live performances. The Helan Festival and Lingzhou League performances are awesome, the NPC interactive games are interesting, and the atmosphere of the wild disco at around 10 pm is great.

It's pretty good. The performance time is tight, one hour is just right. The story content is relatively simple, suitable for all ages, and the scene is also grand, suitable for family viewing.
It's worth a visit, but foreigners cannot register their identity information on Ctrip because it's their passport number, not their ID number. There's no way to make a reservation and they can only buy tickets on the spot. They can't sit together with their families, which not only wastes time but also makes them pay more. It's a bad experience!

The museum is quite large and has many cultural relics. It is very comfortable to visit during the off-season and you can learn a lot. The administrator at the entrance is very good. He did not refuse tourists from entering even if the wrong tickets were booked. He is very humane.
If you want to understand a city, you should start with its museum. Since the bus was late, the guide waited patiently for us and explained the history of Ningxia and various cultural relics to us. The explanation level was average, not interesting enough. Come on!
