There are several medals hanging on the wall, the mutton soup is very famous and tastes good
Baozi! Hexi Corridor is really suitable for special forces travel! Historical monuments and beautiful scenery can be completely destroyed, the super-full guide is sorted out, and the code is quickly checked out 🚀! ✨ Day1: Dunhuang's first impression landed in Dunhuang in the morning, first went to the hotel to lie down and rest, adapt to the dry climate. In the afternoon, I went straight to the Dunhuang Museum. The historical relics of the Silk Road were super interesting, and the bricks were full of details, as if telling the story of thousands of years ago. You must visit the Shazhou Night Market at night! Jingyuan Xuliu's lamb is fresh and juicy, Yang Laoqi mutton noodle soup warms the stomach and enjoys, and can also find exquisite antiques as a souvenir ～✨Day2: The collision between art and the desert 1 month in advance to grab the Mogao Grottoes Class A ticket on the official website! 8 caves + small movies, murals and Buddha statues are super shocking, and I know how wonderful the story behind it is after listening to the explanation. In the afternoon, I went to Mingsha Mountain Crescent Spring. It is recommended to enter the park in the evening, ride a camel to watch the desert sunset slowly, sandboarding is super exciting! But pay attention to protecting the camera and don't enter the sand ～✨ Day3: Cross the thousand-year-old road in the morning to punch in Yangguan, stand on the Dundun platform, and feel the traffic main roads in ancient times. In the afternoon, go to Yumenguan to see the abandoned city wall, and then go to Yadan Geopark. The strange wind erosion landscape is like an alien world! If you have enough time, choose in-depth tours, the scenery is even more amazing! ✨Day4: From Dunhuang to Jiayuguan Road, go to Guazhou to see the son of the earth. The giant sculpture and Gobi are super-adapted, and the photos are beyond the film 📸! In the afternoon, go to Jiayuguan and climb the Guancheng overlooking the Qilian Mountain and Montenegro to have a panoramic view of the Great Wall. ✨ Day5: Meet the colorful fairy tales in the morning and visit the world and the hanging wall Great Wall to learn about ancient military defense. In the afternoon, I rushed to Zhangye Colorful Danxia. The viewing angle of the observation deck was superb. If you want to overlook the treasure from above, remember to ask for a hot air balloon in advance! ✨Day6: If you have enough time for a successful return trip, you can go to Zhangye Big Buddha Temple to see the indoor mud-plastic sleeping Buddha, which is super spectacular! Pack your luggage and set off for Lanzhou, the journey has ended successfully ～❗ Avoid the pit guide ✅ Mogao Grottoes tickets are grabbed 1 month in advance! Temporary to buy B tickets can only watch a few caves ✅ Mingsha Mountain to watch the sunset in the evening, get up early to watch the sunrise is easy to catch a cold ✅ Yadan Geopark in-depth tour is more shocking ✅ with a three-piece suit and sun protection, the northwest day and night temperature difference is large and ultraviolet strong ✅ beef and mutton are more easy to eat. Eat more fruit and drink more water treasures, quickly collect this guide and set off!

During the trip, the local driver led the way to this Shunzhang Yellow Noodle Restaurant. There is a parking lot next to it, which is convenient for parking. After sitting down and searching, I found out that this noodle restaurant has a long history. There were not many of us, so we only ordered a few dishes. The taste was good. The dishes here are all put with a little chili. The children don’t eat spicy food, so they specially gave us hot sauce for us to add ourselves. The yellow noodles were not small in size. I ate them right away and forgot to take pictures. The noodles were chewy and felt a bit like ramen. The children said it was like eating pasta. The sauce had a bit of soybean sauce and taste. Many of the vegetables here are lettuce, which was also ordered here. It was green, crispy and tender, and not bad. The donkey meat and braised sand were also delicious, with a salty and fresh taste.
When you come to Dunhuang for tourism, you must want to taste the local food. Among the many delicacies, donkey meat and yellow noodles are the most distinctive in the whole Dunhuang. For the trip across Mars, we specially arranged the first Shunzhang Yellow Noodle Restaurant in Dunhuang. 🚉 Transportation strategy: The location is very easy to find. You can take any taxi driver in Dunhuang and know where this restaurant is. It is also very close to the city. 🖼 Restaurant environment: When I first entered the restaurant, I felt that this was a small restaurant, because there were only 4 to 5 tables in the hall on the first floor, but their second floor is very wide, with private rooms and halls. 🍲 Recommended dishes: Donkey meat yellow noodles, this is a must-try when you come to this restaurant or even to Dunhuang. Yellow noodles are actually made of white flour, and they are very chewy. With some small tofu and donkey meat on top, they are still delicious. 🚉 Stir-fried donkey skin, this is the first time I have eaten donkey skin, I didn’t expect it to taste so good, and it is very chewy. This is a very good choice for supplementing collagen. 💰Per capita consumption: Looking at the menu I uploaded, you will know that the per capita consumption of this restaurant is actually not low. This is also a very common feature in the Northwest. The dishes are more expensive and the portions are larger, so if two people come to eat, it is enough to order a portion of donkey meat, donkey skin or donkey intestines, plus a vegetarian dish, and a donkey meat yellow noodle.

This is the first time I've seen "rock sugar apricot peel water". I bought a cup to try. Overall, it's similar to sour plum soup. The direction is roughly the same, but they are both a bit too sweet. You can't drink too much at one time [囧] If you drink too much, you may need to drink more water
You must drink their sugar-free apricot peel water! 10 yuan a bottle is not cheap, but it is much better than the ones in various restaurants in Dunhuang. I regretted not buying enough on the first day. I went to the restaurant in the afternoon of the second day and found that they only opened at 5 o'clock. We gave up with tears in order to catch the plane. Why don't they open during the day? It's sad. Later, when I arrived in Lanzhou, I could no longer find such delicious and pure apricot peel water. I must drink more!

【Location】West of Silk Road Yiyuan Hotel.
【Service】In the morning before the silence, many shops were closed. I couldn't find a place to buy breakfast. I finally saw this one open. The steamer at the door was still steaming. I scanned the venue code and came in. There was no dine-in service. The cashier sister was very enthusiastic and immediately introduced which ones didn't need to wait. People came to ask one after another. Some needed to wait for a few minutes. She explained them one by one.
【Taste】I quickly asked for a basket of mushroom meat buns, no need to wait, and finally the second basket. I asked for soy milk.
Unexpectedly, one basket was not enough to eat, so it was good to take the remaining basket away.
Next time, I will try the donkey meat stuffing.

🍭🍭I accidentally saw Li Guangji Apricot Peel Tea at the Shazhou Night Market in Dunhuang. I saw a lot of people queuing up, so I went to join in the fun. The line to pay was quite fast. It took about 5 minutes to get the line, and I waited about 20 minutes to get the tea.
🍭🍭Their apricot peel tea mainly has three flavors: original, white peach oolong, and peach blossom overflow. I feel that white peach oolong and apricot peel tea are also quite a match, but I still tried the original flavor for the first time.
🍭🍭The taste of apricot peel tea is a bit like black plum juice, but it tastes fresher and not as sweet as black plum juice, and you can really taste the taste of apricots.
🍭🍭The packaging of theirs is also very good! The bottle design is convenient to carry and beautiful, and you can see a few apricots at the bottom of the bottle.
🍭🍭The price is 15 yuan per bottle, which is much more expensive than the 2.3 yuan in the market, but it tastes good, and you get what you pay for!
Satisfied, unique flavor, thirst-quenching and sweet, praise

Came here on July 18, 2014.
This restaurant is a very famous old brand in Dunhuang, and it is the same as other old brands in other places: famous, popular, slow serving, and poor service.
In an ancient city in the northwest like Dunhuang, the environment of this restaurant is already quite good; the food is actually not bad, the donkey meat in sauce is very fragrant and tender.
When I came to Dunhuang for a trip, I went straight to Mogao Grottoes after getting off the plane. I chose this place for my first meal after I came out of Dunhuang. It was recommended by the local driver. The dining environment is not bad. There is a lot of customers. I almost had to wait for a table at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Fortunately, the waiting time was very short. The most important thing is of course to eat donkey meat yellow noodles, which cost more than ten yuan a plate. I cut three taels of donkey meat, fried a donkey plate intestine, and drank a glass of apricot peel water. This is a typical Dunhuang meal.

The best meal I had in Dunhuang. The boss’s family was very enthusiastic. The two people only ordered a Huyang pancake. The boss sent cold pancakes. It was delicious.
Recommend donkey meat yellow noodles, cold wontons, Huyang biscuits, flavor
