Desert fun

The desert can be harsh, difficult and dangerous. But also incredibly beautiful and exciting. In Gansu province there is a huge desert which is full of life. Not green life but human life. It's become an attraction for fun. Formed around a Cresent Lake, it's become a form of Oasis You can ride ATV quad vehicles across the sand, admire the sweeping awesome beauty of the sand and skyline. You can ride camels, and even check out the camel crossing which is a surreal sight. There are also sky activities such as helicopter and gliding. There is more to the desert than just sand #china #travel #adventure #solotravel
