2025 Ningxia Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

In northern China lies the autonomous region of Ningxia which mostly characterised by sweeping sand dunes that go on for miles! I’ve been twice (January and June). In January, most of the desert and fresh water is completely frozen over which is quite surreal for a desert. 4X4 cars were able to drive over the oasis because it was so solidly frozen. In the summer, it can become quite warm but still comfortable enough to camp overnight. There are camel rides available although we chose to hike. Away from the same dunes, you can find wine vineyards and pretty mountains. A great place for nature lovers #ningxia #mountainview #deserts #china

The Great Wall of China and the Yellow River is a place that you can’t miss if you are in the city of Zhongwei. The recommended sightseeing time is half an hour or maximum one hour. This place is an impressive archeological gem, its facade is beautiful and its reconstruction from ruin was a total success. Try not to miss out the sunset as this Great Wall has a great panoramic view to the Yellow river. Plan accordingly to get a good spot to take some photographs. This is the kind of places you must feel proud to visit and enjoy in person as it’s part of the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Free access to locals ands tourists so don't worry about tickets. #createwithtrip #holidays #exploring #createwithtrip

Take a sleeper train to the little-travelled city of Yinchuan in Ningxia and explore China’s main wine region, where you can actually find drinkable wine! (Our goal of the trip). The main wineries are Xige and Silver Heights, which also have accommodation. Ningxia also has ancient ruins to explore (Western Xia Tombs and Helanshan) as well as the Tengger Desert where you can sleep in glamping yurts. Bring the wine you purchase at the wineries and make it a party!

Why not a visit to the desert when in China? This dreamy desert resort will definitely not disappoint you. Beautifully curated Moroccan style hotel with various pools and loads of photo opportunities. From here you can access the beginning of the Great Wall of China and also easily reach the desert 🏜😀 #summervacation#urbanexplorer

In the distant Gansu, the most impressive impression is the slightly deserted Gobi Desert in the northwest. Although, I can't say exactly what the Gobi Desert and the Gobi Desert really look like. Just came to Gansu to start from Lanzhou, and showed me a colorful Gansu, because Gansu's geographical span is large, it is actually richer than I expected. This trip will not go too far into the conventional scenic spot, another kind goes deep into Gansu, but today there is still a chance to have a quick contact with the Tengger Desert.

The Northwest returns to its vast, desolate essence. But those who have witnessed its midsummer splendor will forever remember—salt lakes like blood, deserts resembling Mars, and starry skies so low they seem within reach. ❗【👇Click below to begin your miraculous Northwest journey】❗

Southerners came to Ningxia For our lamb-loving family Besides lamb, there are many specialties It's simply the rhythm of eating every meal until you are full😂 ①📍Hong Man Garden Specialty Fried Stew (West Garden) p2-p5 This place is located between the market neighborhoods and has a very market atmosphere We arrived not late but when we went the store was full and very popular! The specialty is stir-fried stewed meat! Mutton and beef are all available! The portion is sufficient and the price is not expensive 📍Guoqiang Hand Grab (Beijing West Road Store) p6-p9 How can you come to Yinchuan and not eat Guoqiang's hand grab? This place is the right place to go back to Yinchuan city from Mount Halan A must-order for hand-caught lamb 😝 The oil is crispy and has a hint of sweetness Scallions are also a northern specialty. You can try them! So tender 📍Little Leaf Hand Grab (Liberation East Road Store) p10-p13 In addition to Kwok-keung, Siu-Ye, Lao-Mao, and Ma-Wai's hand grips are also quite famous Their hand-grabbed lamb is particularly tender, and it's too fragrant with onions Also, their hand-grabbed lamb is vacuum-packed to mail We bought a few boxes that were handy from the store and shipped directly home, and they came with dried chili powder 📍Taste the fragrance gathering. Ningxia Snack Beach Sheep Hand Grabbing Pavilion p13-p16 This store is located in Zhongwei city The local bus driver said this place is good and they will go there themselves Red willow lamb skewers are a must-try! Also the roast leg of lamb was tempting The belly bun meat also has leek flower sauce, the meat inside is very soft, I'm not used to the taste of outside belly, my teammates ate it very tasty Egg bubbles! Ordinary but tastes quite good 🎈There are also some other good food and drink locally in Ningxia: Jinhe yogurt, putha sweet roasted milk tea, Noermai spicy strips... too many, too many It feels like I have changed my stomach in Ningxia. Who dares to say that Ningxia is a food desert in the future? I disagree! 😂

Day 1: Starting the Journey in Yinchuan As the plane gently lands at Yinchuan Hedong International Airport, the Ningxia adventure begins with 24-hour airport pickup service. Day 2: Spectacular Five Lakes and a Romantic Night Under Desert Stars 🌟 At dawn, the first rays of sunlight stream through the window, filling us with joy as we set off on the Five Lakes crossing journey. Along the way, the boundless desert resembles golden waves, with sand dunes gracefully outlined by the sunlight, like masterpieces crafted by nature. Each salt lake we pass is a palette of colors, with waters that are emerald green or pink, dazzlingly vibrant and mesmerizing, as if stepping into a fairyland. Gentle breezes ripple across the lake surfaces, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, creating a poetic and picturesque scene. 🌌 As night falls, the Moroccan-style tents deep in the desert become a dreamy retreat. Lying in the tent, you can gaze up at the brilliant starry sky, with the Milky Way stretching across the heavens, seemingly within reach. The surrounding silence is broken only by the soft whispers of the desert wind, like a soothing lullaby that lets you forget the hustle and bustle of the world, immersing you in tranquility and freedom. 🍴 Speaking of food 🍜, Ningxia’s signature dishes like hand-grabbed lamb and lamb noodle soup are must-tries. The former features tender meat with a flavorful sauce that melts in your mouth, paired with special seasonings for an ultimate taste experience. The latter boasts chewy noodles and rich, spicy broth infused with the fresh taste of lamb, leaving a lasting impression. Day 3: Thrilling Adventures at Shapotou and the Rugged Beauty of Route 66 ☀️ We arrive at Shapotou, where the grandeur of the Yellow River meets the wildness of the desert. Sliding down the sand dunes on a board, the wind roars past your ears as your heart races, experiencing the perfect blend of speed and excitement. Riding a camel, you leisurely wander through the dunes, evoking the ancient caravan journeys of the past. Driving a desert off-road vehicle, you race through the sand sea, with every acceleration and turn bringing endless thrills and joy, unleashing your inner passion and freedom. Later, we head to Route 66, a scene straight out of a movie. Flanked by vast wastelands and solitary hills, the road exudes a unique desolate beauty. I eagerly grab my camera to capture this masterpiece of nature. The road stretches out beneath our feet, seemingly leading to an unknown destination, making it hard to leave. 📝 Helpful Tips 1. The desert climate is dry, so bring moisturizing cream and lip balm to keep your skin hydrated and prevent dryness. 2. Sun protection is essential—don’t forget sunscreen, sunglasses, and a sun hat to shield your skin from UV rays. 3. The temperature difference between day and night is significant, so pack warm clothing to stay comfortable and avoid catching a cold. 4. If you’re prone to motion sickness during the Five Lakes crossing, prepare medication in advance to ensure a pleasant journey. This 3-day Ningxia adventure, from the magical colors of the secret lakes to the romantic desert stargazing, and the thrilling challenges at Shapotou to the breathtaking encounter with Route 66, feels like a spellbinding experience etched in my heart as the most cherished memory. If you’re yearning for such a dreamy journey, don’t hesitate—come to Ningxia and start your unforgettable adventure!

1️⃣ Zhongwei is not suitable for budget travel. If you're traveling with kids, I recommend staying once at the Zhongwei Desert Star Hotel! The kids will definitely love it!! 2️⃣ The Western Xia Imperial Tombs, Helan Mountain Rock Paintings, and Ningxia Museum are worth 💡 taking the kids to. The combination of culture and hands-on experience is great. 3️⃣ When playing in the desert, bring a straw-type insulated cup 🥣. It's more convenient for drinking water and can prevent sand from getting into the cup. 4️⃣ Zhongwei has a big temperature difference between day and night. You can wear short sleeves during the day, but wear a windbreaker in the morning and evening. If it rains all day, the windbreaker can still feel cold! Be sure to bring sunglasses and a sun protection mask, as the wind and sand are very strong! 5️⃣ The best family hotel in Zhongwei is the Star ✨ Hotel. The facilities are indeed good, but the price is also quite high! 6️⃣ You should try the Yellow River Hostel; you won’t regret it! It’s more comfortable than the Star Hotel and perfect for moms who love taking photos. You can get amazing shots in no time 📸. 7️⃣ Although I think Shapotou is a must-visit, it’s where the show "Where Are We Going, Dad?" was filmed. The area is really large, divided into desert and Yellow River zones, with many activities. If your kids are tall enough and love to play, Shapotou is the most professional 👍, with good quality and you can queue up without hesitation! 8️⃣ Be sure to do thorough research before coming. Don’t be tempted by low-priced tours (for kids, I recommend family tours). Remember, you get what you pay for! · ✅ Fun activities experienced 🌟 The kids tried the sheepskin raft, not only floating but also with a teacher explaining knowledge. They even "blew the sheepskin" themselves. 🌟 Visited the Western Xia Tombs and watched the 4D movie at the scenic spot. The kids said the movable type printing experience was very interesting, learning how to arrange typesetting and ink application. You can print both text and pictures. 🌟 Riding camels was especially fun, slowly enjoying the desert scenery with the kids, so relaxing. 🌟 Took five types of Northwest special transportation to tour Shuidonggou: donkey cart, horse carriage, camel cart, boat, and tractor canopy cart. 🌟 An intangible cultural heritage teacher taught the kids to sing local folk songs, helping them better understand Northwest cultural characteristics. . 💁 My kid-friendly itinerary: D1: Yinchuan, Ningxia D2: Shuidonggou Site - Inner Mongolia Pastoral Home D3: Western Xia Imperial Tombs - Manpu Town D4: Hui Ethnic Tribe - Desert Star Hotel - Desert Stargazing D5: Shapotou - Yellow River Hostel D6: Yellow River Great Wall - Return to Yinchuan

Here's a guide to peach blossom viewing in Ningxia: 📚📚 Blooming Information According to the Ningxia peach blossom blooming forecast released on March 17, 2025, due to the influence of previous temperature, precipitation, sunshine and other meteorological factors, especially from February 1 to March 10, the average temperature in Ningxia was lower than the same period of previous years, and affected by the strong cold air, it is expected that the peach blossom blooming time in Ningxia this year will be slightly later than last year.

#discoverchina It’s quiet, uncrowded, and the travel experience? So good. I spent a few slow days here with friends, and it was exactly what we needed 🧘♀️🍃 🍇 Wine Time in Yin Chuan Yinchuan is actually known for its wine production, and the region is dotted with beautiful vineyards and wineries. I specially planned a wine estate visit for this trip, and it was chef’s kiss. 📍Stop: Meihe Manor Winery (美贺庄园) 🚗 Getting There: Best to rent a car or self-drive. This European-style castle nestled in a sea of vineyards completely stole my heart at first glance 💒✨ Inside, it’s not just about wine—there are also modern art pieces and well-curated displays that reflect the wine estate’s artistic taste and attention to detail. From the underground wine cellar to the production area and display hall on the main floor, you’ll find racks of aging wine and award-winning bottles galore. The third-floor tasting room offers stunning views of the Helan Mountains as you sip from your glass—pure bliss. In summer, the surrounding vineyards open for tours, with lush green vines everywhere 💚 🌟 Other Must-See Spots Around Yinchuan 🎬 Zhenbeibao Western Film Studio Filming site for classics like A Chinese Odyssey and Red Sorghum. It’s super close to Meihe Manor—perfect to pair with your winery visit! 🏛️ Western Xia Imperial Tombs Just listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2025! These ancient relics rising from the desert plains are absolutely awe-inspiring. Don’t miss the museum—it’s packed with incredible artifacts and history. 🏜️ Wuhai Where the desert meets the lake—half sand, half water. In March, Wuhai Lake freezes over, adding a totally unique vibe to the scenery. 📚 Zhongwei Check out Shapotou and the Desert Library—both are iconic landmarks. The northwestern landscapes here are especially novel for those of us from southern China 🌵 #travel #thingstodo
