    "The heart of the earth ❤️ Wulan Lake, such a beautiful scenery is very worthwhile even if you cross the desert for two hours. Go to the water and the sky, the sparkling place, feel the magnificence and sacredness of Alxa, and the driver Luo Master and Zhang Secretary's car skills are superb, and you can take the smooth and stimulating route according to your needs. They can even walk freely through the familiar desert without signaling, meeting in Wulan Lake, the herd of sheep, and feeling the vast starry sky"

    Highlights: Tengger Desert is the fourth largest desert in China. Tengger Mongolian means sky, which means the vast quicksand is like a boundless sky. There are hundreds of lakes that have survived for tens of millions of years in the desert, the more famous ones are Swan Lake and Moon Lake. Under the blue sky, the desert is vast, desolate and majestic, the rolling sand dunes for thousands of miles are scattered like frozen waves, and the soft lines show its extraordinary charm. Moon Lake resembles a map of China, half is a freshwater lake and half is a saltwater lake. Swan Lake is about 35 kilometers away from the north and south of Moon Lake. It is surrounded by a vast desert, with rolling sand dunes and rolling sand waves. The scene is magnificent and refreshing. Swan Lake and Moon Lake are big and small. They set off each other and have their own charms, attracting a large number of tourists.

    "It belongs to Inner Mongolia, with grassland and sandy land, and a bonfire party at night. The scenic spot needs to take a shuttle bus. There are sheep and camels in the grassland, not far from Zhongwei. After going to Shapotou, you can go around, about an hour."

    Highlights: The Tonghu Grassland lies in the hinterlands of the Tengri Desert. The grasslands, deserts, and lakes together form an area of natural beauty. Fresh air, clusters of cattle and sheep and white yurts come together to create a fascinating view. The blue sky, white clouds, grassland, cattle, and sheep, and the enthusiastic grassland herders, create a feeling of peaceful isolation. During the day, you can ride a horse through the vast grassland, wander around on a camel, or find a good place to sit down, drink tea, and admire the natural beauty. In the evening, you can meet visitors from all around at a bonfire party, where you can eat meat, drink wine and mellow milk tea, and listen to the melodious horse-head fiddle. A stimulating, satisfying, and happy experience!

    "It is very, very close to the border between China and Mongolia. There are many people during the 11th National Day, but there are many buses. Basically, you can get on the bus without waiting too long. When you enter the scenery, people will scatter and the parking lot is also very large. I felt that there was no car on the road. As a result, when I arrived at the parking lot, it was all cars. Many people lived in the car the night before. The sunrise during the eleventh period was about 6:30, and we saw the sunrise"
