I've already been to Ningxia and wouldn't recommend going now because it's simply too stunning.

Helan Mountain Rock Painting

_We***36
Helan Mountain Rock Painting is worth seeing, the scenery is also very good, watching the sun god needs to climb up, people will be more dangerous, must wear light shoes, because the inside is really big, but there is no need to go, personally feel that there is no need to do a shuttle bus, Not too far to walk and stop and take a photo.

It is still possible to do a simple hike, but the scenery is indeed inferior to other forest parks, mainly because the overall style is more biased towards the northwest desert, and there are more Helan Mountain stones and dead trees.

I feel that I have to find manual explanations to visit the museum with my baby. The explanations are more detailed and immersive. The children's questions can also be answered one by one. Compared with the interpreter, there can be more interaction, and the children are more willing to listen. The overall experience is very good!

I have a good impression of Yinchuan. It is very quiet and comfortable here. No matter where I go, I will not feel depressed or urgent. When I came to Yinchuan for tourism, I heard that this museum is worth a visit, so I chose a lazy afternoon to come and slowly watch and feel these treasures. I like geography and evolution-related content very much, so I like it here. It was summer vacation, and I happened to meet a group of cute children who were practicing to be little tour guides. Everyone worked very hard, and I was also infected by their enthusiasm when I watched from the side.

As the sun sets, the arc-shaped buildings imitating the Colosseum are dyed warm orange, and the sparkling lake reflects the silhouette of Helan Mountain. The mountain on the first light of the lantern is like a quiet castle, healing every light-seeker with a gentle twilight. 📍 It is recommended to arrive before 6 pm, and the observation deck on the west side can have a panoramic view of the lakes and mountains. Park is free and cost-effective

More satisfied is their service, just arrived at the visitor hall to have a raw pulp drink tasting, and then the reception will prompt whether you need to go to the toilet. The whole visit takes about 20 minutes, and you can go to the tea room to taste tea, there are some leisure food to eat, to the store, there are drinks and water to drink, there will be special service.

Drum Tower

M51***26
In ancient times, cities basically existed in the form of city pools, and the Drum Tower was the basic building of the city. One was the time reporting and the other was the alarm function. The Drum Tower in Yinchuan was originally built as an alarm. Daming Hongwu for nine years, Geng Zhongxuan's northwest side, founded Ningxia Wei, and when he rebuilt Ningxia Town (Yinchuan City), at the highest point in the city (now the location), it was also the center point and also built the Drum Tower. From the day of the construction and completion of the Drum Tower, it has experienced many ordeals. It can be said that it has been repeatedly built and destroyed. It has experienced many chaos and disasters in Yinchuan City, such as the chaos of the Anhua king, the battle of Wanli, the three-year earthquake in Qianlong, the chaos of the same year, etc. It is also a witness to the storm and vicissitudes of Yinchuan City.

First of all, the park is very large, and it is a little expanded on the basis of the Qingcheng site. Most of the shooting props left by the various crews are shooting scenes. From the inside, you can peer into the leopard and see what is called a movie montage. If you use light and shadow effects to turn the originally cheap scene into a grand and magnificent. Be sure to explain, otherwise it will be confused. Miss Luo Wei, the narrator, is very serious and responsible. She knows that my interest point is the big west tour, and immediately designed the exclusive route for me. I didn't even take a step back. You can find your favorite plot 🤔 scene photo. Still very feeling. There is no shortage of beautiful scenery, but the eyes that are lacking are developing beautifully, and the weather is not strong. But the narrative of the narrator lady is the icing on the cake for my itinerary, so that I can see the artistic effect of sound and photoelectricity from the original unremarkable scene. The main thing is that she is an intern or free! If everyone is as dedicated as she is, I believe that the film and television city will get better and better. Thanks!

It's worth it than Zhongwei! Much more cost-effective. Especially for people who occasionally go to the desert, the project is similar, but there are many fewer people. Anyway, it is mainly to experience the desert scenery in the desert, so you don’t have to go to Zhongwei thousands of miles away.
