Our Great Qinghai-Tibet Ring Road, the second attraction of the crossing trip, is Aksai Oil Town.
This oil town is a tourist attraction on the Gansu-Qinghai Ring Road. After paying the ticket to 20 yuan, you can enter this "relic" to create a tour.
The oil town is built on a vast flat land, overgrown with weeds;
Many adobe houses have collapsed, while most existing brick houses have been demolished and emptied, leaving some fragmented and incomplete doorframes.
The roads in the town are straight and tidy, but the streets are lifeless, all tattered and lifeless.
I know Stone Town from the movie "The Nine-story Demon Tower". The movie said that the town was attacked by monsters on 1985, and everyone was killed before the town was abandoned.
Looking up the information with curiosity, I found the real reason why the town was abandoned. It is because the natural environment in the northwest is too bad, because the resources are mainly mined here, and with the passage of time, the oil resources will gradually dry up, and then the oilfield will fall into a development trough. After the exploitation of resources, the oil town lost its value and was directly abandoned because of lack of water and food.
What are you doing in the ruins of an oil town?
Of course, it is the punching position in the movie. This abandoned town has become the location of many movies, such as West Wind and Nine-story Demon Tower.
Walking around the former cinemas, government buildings, hospitals, kindergartens, ancient prison sites and other buildings, you will get a sense of loneliness that you rarely have the opportunity to experience on weekdays.
Photography is the best way to experience the ruins of oil towns. The whole town retains the flavor of China in the 1980s and is also suitable for taking photos.
Everywhere I go, it's a shabby and old smell.
You can shoot some industrial style, eschatological style and Leng Yan blockbusters.
Perhaps this is the decadent beauty brought by the passage of time.
In architecture, there are many monster props used in filming before. They are wrapped in chains and have long fangs in their mouths. They still look a little scary.
In the 1980 s, the motorcycle was advertised.
The map in the government building, made of tiles, has not faded for so many years.
In the nine-story monster tower movie, the theater was attacked by monsters.
There are shops in the town, and the nine-story demon tower is inserted in the bus on the main road. In addition, there are planes, tanks and jeeps on the road ruins, which are all good creative backgrounds.
If you want to shoot the industrial style, you can look for the factory in the back. There are only five big characters left on the high wall, which is safe and promotes production. There is a bus stop ahead.
