First time in Dunhuang, the food is delicious and the service is very good
Good taste, elegant environment and good service attitude.
I found a recommended restaurant in a shopping mall. The people in the store are very enthusiastic. Not only did they often ask me if I needed help during the meal, but they also chased me out to lead me to the elevator after paying the bill. Of course, the most important thing is the experience of the dishes below⬇️ ✨Poplar wood braised pancake: This dish is cooked with poplar wood, and the braised pancake is actually braised with noodles. (When the dish was served in the store, there was a small introduction card) The waiter also told me that if it was cold, I could ask him to reheat it. When I ate it, I felt that it tasted very much like big plate chicken. Of course, the difference is that it mainly contains mutton, noodles, and green peppers. The mutton is very tender, although I ate a few pieces of fat meat and couldn't eat it anymore. There is not much smell. The noodles are super big, and I tasted the green pepper flavor at the first bite, and then the mutton fragrance permeated. In short, the noodles are really delicious after being soaked in the soup! The portion is too large, and I can't eat the small portion I ordered at all. ✨Apricot peel water: It tastes different from the one in Jiayuguan. It was half peach and half sour plum before, but this one has a stronger soft girl taste. But the sour taste fades away at the end, leaving sweetness, and there is even fruit pulp at the end. #MyLifeFIRST #TheFlashingCityImpossibleToHide #DunhuangTravelGuide #Dunhuang #DunhuangFoodRecommendations 👉 Zhenpinxiang Huyang Braised Cake 📍Address: Area A, 4th Floor, Yiwang International Shopping Plaza, Yangguan Middle Road, Dunhuang City 💰Price: 100/person 🌟Rating: 4.5🌟

The driver even took us to the mountain for a panoramic view of Qinghai Lake – absolutely breathtaking! After the tour, we went to Wankelai in Xinqian Night Market to buy tourist clothes—cheap and affordable! The entrance fee to Chaka Salt Lake was 160 yuan. The "Mirror of the Sky" of China is incredibly beautiful; dressing the kids in bright colors makes for amazing family photos! For dinner, we checked out the popular restaurant Ga Zhang Wa; the food was decent, and they have children's meals available. Overnight in Xining. Day 2: Xining → Golmud (Rest Day) We slept in until 11 am, then took the high-speed train to Golmud (215 yuan/person). The scenery along the way was stunning, passing Qinghai Lake. We took the kids to enjoy the high-altitude lake scenery. We arrived at 6 pm and had dinner at Muyunjian Yak Beef Hot Pot. I recommend the "horse piss" (a type of beef dish) and mutton rolls—they were delicious! The kids even ate the clear broth version. Overnight in Golmud. Day 3: Golmud → Qarhan Salt Lake → Yardang Landform → Water Yardang We booked a one-day tour through Ctrip for 167 yuan, departing at 7 am and returning to Golmud at 8:30 pm.

The unique water-based Yardang landforms are like an alien world, sure to pique kids' curiosity. Chaka Salt Lake + Water Yardang entrance fee: 220 yuan. Dinner: Dingdingniu Yidi Dry Pot Yak Beef – incredibly delicious, highly recommend the spicy flavor (choose the clear broth for kids). Overnight in Golmud.

A one-day tour on Ctrip for 498 yuan includes a walk from Emerald Lake to Honey Lake (approximately 10,000 steps per hour), with stunning scenery, even more vibrant than Chaka Salt Lake. Heidushan is breathtakingly beautiful, perfect for photos. Opposite the scenic area is the oil town, offering a unique landform experience for children. Heidushan + Emerald Lake entrance fee: 170 yuan. Arrive in Dunhuang around 10 PM. Dinner: Zhenpinxiang Lamb Stew with Flatbread – incredibly fragrant, highly recommended! Overnight in Dunhuang~ Day 5: Dunhuang Rest → Mingsha Mountain Woke up at 11 am, queued for Ga Liu lamb, got a number at noon but didn't get to eat until 2:30 pm. The food was amazing, great value, and the kids loved it! Departed for Mingsha Mountain at 6 pm. Tickets were 110 yuan. After attending the 10,000-person concert, queued for an hour for the free shuttle bus to the night market. At Mingsha Mountain, you can take the kids camel riding and sandboarding to experience the fun of the desert. Remember to wear sunscreen! Dinner was roadside fruit to replenish vitamins. Overnight in Dunhuang~ Day 6: Dunhuang → Zhangye → Ping Shan Lake Grand Canyon Took the high-speed train from Dunhuang to Zhangye (174.5 yuan/person). In the afternoon, joined a half-day bus tour of Ping Shan Lake Grand Canyon (48 yuan), plus a 306 yuan entrance fee for a comprehensive scenic tour.

Day 8: Return Trip Take the airport bus to the airport, concluding our enjoyable Qinghai-Gansu Grand Loop family trip! 💡 Family Travel Tips • Clothing: The temperature difference along the Qinghai-Gansu Grand Loop is significant. Dress your child in a windproof jacket and thermal underwear, layering for easy adjustment. Also bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen, as the UV radiation is strong at high altitudes. • Items: Pack plenty of water and snacks (for energy), common medications, and moisturizer (due to the dry climate). Some scenic areas are far away, so bring picture books or toys to keep them entertained. • Altitude Sickness: Give your child Rhodiola Rosea in advance, avoid strenuous exercise, and eat a light diet rich in fruits and vegetables. 🏨 Family Accommodation Guide • Xining: We recommend the "Sofitel Xining Xinhua Lian Hotel." It boasts a great location, close to the train station and shopping areas; it offers family rooms with luxurious decor, cribs, children's toiletries, and play facilities; the hotel has a restaurant with children's meals; and the service is attentive, offering advice for family travel. Dunhuang: I recommend the "Dunhuang Vienna International Hotel". It boasts a prime location near the Mingsha Mountain Scenic Area; it offers comfortable family rooms with cribs, children's toiletries, and breakfast; there's a rest area on-site for families with young children to relax in; and the service is attentive and worry-free. #QinghaiGansuGrandLoop #QinghaiGansuGrandLoop #QinghaiGansuGrandLoopInstagrammableSpots #QinghaiGansuGrandLoopEssentialKnowledgeGuide #PlacesYouGetAskedAboutOnWeChat
