When in Yinchuan, how can one miss visiting Helan MountainWhen in Yinchuan, how can one miss visiting Helan Mountain. The Helan Mountain National Forest Park is just a ten-minute drive from Zhenbeibao Film Studio. I think it's one of the most worthwhile places to visit in Yinchuan. Not just for the name Helan Mountain, which is closely connected to history, but also for the different high mountain landscapes, the special strata of address rocks, and the rock sheep running all over the place. Yes, there are a lot of rock sheep, and they are very easy to spot. Once you enter, the sightseeing car takes you deep into the mountains, where you can either climb by yourself or take the cable car. The cable car looks scary but is actually quite stable, and the scenery is also very good. After going up, it is recommended to climb to the Century Tower. On the way to Rabbit Hole, there is a lookout point where you can see some very peculiar rocks. Rabbit Hole itself is not much to see, and you can skip it. The scenery can be described as magnificent, with a touch of desolation. There are also small animals, suitable for climbing or taking a walk with children.Levi.Hughes@91
The desolation that is barren in the eyes of others is the home I think about day and nightHow can you miss "Helan Mountain" when you come to Yinchuan Not for anything else, just the name of Helan Mountain that is closely connected with history, it is worth a visit. Besides, you can see different mountain landscapes, special address rock layers, and rock sheep running all over the ground. Helan Mountain is the boundary mountain between the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region and the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, It used to be the natural barrier of the Central Plains dynasty, blocking the invasion of the northwestern nomadic tribes. In ancient times, northern minorities such as the Huns, Xianbei, Turks, Uighurs, Tibetans, Dangxiang, etc. grazed and hunted here, multiplied and thrived, and it is still a multi-ethnic mixed living area for Han, Hui, Mongolian, Manchu, etc. Helan Mountain is majestic and desolate, the rock sheep with protective colors all over their bodies are agile, their bodies are strong, their vitality is vigorous, under the second level of protection, the rock sheep are all over the mountains and can be seen everywhere‼️ Scenic spot ✅Helan Mountain Ba Si Kou Twin Towers Scenic Area opens: Open from February 13, 2024: Opening hours: 9:30 to 17:30 Tickets🎫: Free Ba Si Kou Twin Towers is about 50 kilometers away from the city of Yinchuan. It is the most complete preserved Xixia Buddhist pagoda in China. It has a history of about 1,000 years and is a rare art treasure in the history of Chinese Buddhist pagoda architecture. 10 kilometers west of Ba Si Kou, in the Ba Si Kou Gully, there used to be a four-sided thirteen-story square tower. In 1991, the Ningxia Archaeological Department organized experts to clean up the ruins of the Ba Si Kou square tower. A large number of small mud towers, small mud Buddhas and dozens of precious cultural relics such as Xixia and Han Buddhist scriptures and documents were unearthed. Especially the Xixia Buddhist scriptures "Jixiang Bian Zhi Kou He Ben Xu" that were unearthed caused a sensation at the time. This sutra is the only printed butterfly-bound Xixia Buddhist sutra in China. It is the earliest wooden movable type printed object discovered in the world so far. The discovery of this cultural relic has advanced the invention and use of wooden movable type in our country by nearly a hundred years, that is, from the traditional Yuan to the Xixia, thus ending the history of our country in the Song Dynasty only having movable type printing records but no physical evidence, and strongly proving that one of our country's "Four Great Inventions" "Movable type printing" originated from the fact of the Song Dynasty in China. ✅Helan Mountain Rock Paintings You can see the distribution and style of rock paintings around the world You can see the rock paintings that are still on the rock wall You can see the majestic Helan Mountain & the scenery of the Yinchuan Plain You may also see rock sheep coming over the mountain to drink water World-class great art treasure Helan Mountain rock paintings can be traced back to three thousand to ten thousand years ago Recording the life and beliefs of ancient ancestors ✅Helan Mountain National Forest Park Helan Mountain National Forest Park A ten-minute drive from Zhenbeibao Film City.

In Yinchuan·Helan Mountain National Forest Park One Day Tour Guide❤Recommended reasons: How can you not go to Helan Mountain when you come to Yinchuan? Helan Mountain National Forest Park is a ten-minute drive from Zhenbeibao Film City. I think it's one of the most worthwhile places to go in Yinchuan. In Helan Mountain, you can see different alpine landscapes, special address rock layers, and rock sheep running all over the ground. There are a lot of rock sheep, and they are easy to see. The sightseeing car at the entrance pulls into the deep mountains, you can climb by yourself or take the cable car. The cable car looks scary but it's actually quite stable, and the scenery is also quite good. After going up, it is recommended to climb to the Century Tower. As for the Rabbit Pit, there is a lookout point on the road where you can see very peculiar rocks. The Rabbit Pit itself is not worth seeing, you can skip it. The scenery can be described as magnificent, with a bit of desolation, and small animals. 🚉Traffic strategy: I took a taxi from the city, the one-way trip is about 100 yuan, tickets + bus can be booked online (75 yuan); you can also book a bus + ticket on the travel unicorn, but there is only one. 📝Note tips: 1. The route we took is 5-6 kilometers in total, with a certain climb (descent), the highest altitude is about 2300, if you bring children, it is recommended to be cautious, if you climb the mountain, it is recommended to bring a climbing stick. The time consumed at that time was 2.5 hours. If you are a pure tourist, you can add some time to estimate. 2. There is also a cliff plank road next to the parking lot that is completely independent of the above mainstream route, about 2.8 kilometers, and return the same way. We didn't go at the time. 3. You can replenish supplies at two places, the parking lot and Qingsong Ridge, and there are basically none elsewhere. Because there are fewer people walking to Cherry Valley, so you have to wait a few times for the bus here, it's better to sit in the bus parking lot.stellan_4861
On a clear morning, a drone travels to Helan MountainThe uphill journey takes at least an hour and a half and is quite steep, so if you're carrying a lot of weight, it's strongly recommended to take the cable car round trip. The sunlight around 8 a.m. can capture the oblique shadows of the mountains, and the drone can take off from the parking lot with relatively stable signalsC1ph3r3d_W1tch3r
Northwest Scenery | Helan Mountain Scenic Area🎫Bought tickets and sightseeing cars. 🚠The cable car ticket is purchased at the foot of the mountain by the sightseeing car. One way is 40, round trip is 60. Free for those under 1.2 meters. High-altitude rope bridge charges separately 40 yuan/person 🚌The sightseeing car saw the national second-class protected wild animals, the rock sheep and the fox along the way. ⛰The majestic and steep Helan Mountain is the father mountain of Ningxia, which is dry and rainless all year round, forming a unique natural landscape. 🔺tips: There is almost no food on the way to the mountain, it is recommended to bring your own supplies.KYRIE PARKS

You've seen the Helan Mountain in Inner Mongolia that most people can't see!!!You've seen the Helan Mountain in Inner Mongolia that most people can't see!!! Helan Mountain National Forest Park can be accessed from Yinchuan, Ningxia, or Inner Mongolia. However, it's difficult for most people to enter the national nature reserve in Inner Mongolia, let alone drive there. I was fortunate to follow the local reserve management bureau into the Helan Mountain reserve during my research period, where I saw many bharals and experienced the desolate and magnificent scenery of Helan Mountain. During my research in Inner Mongolia, I always saw the distant Helan Mountain, with sparse vegetation and magnificent winding. It was only when I entered the reserve that I found the vegetation on the mountain range gradually becoming lush, gradually recovering under human intervention, and everywhere were traces of the survival of wild birds, bharals, and deer herds. That day was overcast. As I was leaving, I saw the horses and cattle of the herders outside the reserve, leisurely and freely, like a Chinese ink landscape painting, which further made me believe in the possibility of harmonious coexistence between man and nature.BlazeHunter89

You can watch it with Helan Mountain Rock Paintings. It is very suitable for calming down and watching. You can see the vibrant social life of the ancient nomads, evoke understanding of human consistency and understand the history of human development.
Beautiful scenery, dangerous terrain, monsoon area and non-monsoon distinction, it is recommended for people who like to travel, it is not close to the scenery, there are many wildlife, very friendly, good service attitude
It is worth going in the off-season. There are few people and it is not crowded. The jungle trail that climbs is really steep. Hiking enthusiasts suggest that you can rush. I really want to be a elf on Helan Mountain. Is it a rock sheep?
This is an extremely fascinating attraction. It takes only about 10 minutes to get deep down the rugged mountain road by the scenic shuttle bus. As you begin your hike at the foot of the mountain, you will find yourself in a picturesque natural world. The scenery along the way is beautiful, as if every step is showing you the magic of nature. Even more surprising is that you can even see the rock sheep walking leisurely in the forest, their presence adds a vivid and wild color to the attraction. And the day happened to snow, the whole world seemed to become a fairy tale painting, white and flawless, beautiful, people as if in a dreamy world.
There is a peach blossom at the entrance of the scenic spot, the flowers are brilliant, fragrant and beautiful. The scenic spot has a cableway up the mountain, which is convenient and fast.
The reservation is very convenient, the itinerary is very reasonable, Helan Mountain is very good, the scenery is good, and the experience is good. The scenic spots along the route are very beautiful. Although there is snow in the mountains, the experience is different and the beauty is different. I will come again next time.
Helanshan National Park, a very magical landform style, through the tour, more understanding of Helanshan's history and culture, reproduce the customs and national habits of the northwest people, it is worth a visit.
The dripping land is very small, the trembling panic, and the staring at it: a windy moon, Helan Mountain, the same cloud is faint, and the sky is long. 📌 TIPS: 📍 Location: Navigate and search Helanshan National Forest Park. 💰 Tickets: Tickets + sightseeing round-trip car 75 yuan/person, cableway round-trip 60 yuan/person 🅿️ Parking: The parking lot is at the entrance of the scenic spot, 5 yuan/time. 🌉 Cable Bridge: The cable bridge on the mountain is charged separately, 40 yuan/person (roundtrip). 🤸♂️ Acrobatic performance: There is a wire acrobatic performance next to the cable bridge, and the specific time can be paid attention to the scenic schedule. Tour route: Line 1: Helan Mountain Museum - Sanqingguan - Lingguang Temple - Songtao Mountain Villa (take the cableway) - Qingsongling (roundtrip of the cable bridge) - Century Tower - Tuerkeng - Cherry Valley. Line 2: Helan Mountain Museum - Sanqingguan - Lingguang Temple - Cherry Valley - Tuerkeng - Century Tower - Qingsongling (cable bridge round-trip) - Songtao Villa. 💠 The weather on the mountain is unpredictable, and you bring a coat and long pants when you go up the mountain. In addition, prepare ponchos and sun protection equipment. 🔶 Helanshan National Forest Park belongs to Helanshan Nature Reserve. It is a place for rock sheep to live and move, so beautiful and flexible rock sheep can be seen everywhere. Because rock sheep is timid, don't scare them when playing. 🔷 Helan Mountain Rock Painting Scenic Area is 5 kilometers away from Helan Mountain Forest Park, and you can visit one line.
