The land of Danxia in Zhangye is dreamy and colorful, and Qilin is silent, magical and tragic. Populus euphratica is golden and romantic, and Jiayuguan is vast and profound!
1. Zhangye Danxia landform: There is not enough time here. You can only take a cursory tour for half a day, and there are still several scenic spots that you can't walk at all. It's a pity that you missed a trip. I really suggest you take Populus euphratica and leave. Jiayuguan, Jiuquan, Zhangye, and even Dunhuang (Dunhuang for a long time). At present, there is Pingshan Lake Grand Canyon in Zhangye alone, which is said to be comparable to the famous Colorado Grand Canyon in the United States.
2. We visited the scenery of Populus euphratica, which is known as "drunken beautiful Populus euphratica forest"; Ejina Populus euphratica Forest Scenic Area; Sunrise in Juyanhai and Port Zeke. Overall feeling: Populus euphratica with weak water and sand in the black city has beautiful scenery, and Qilin is an unexpected surprise. The accommodation in Black City is good, and the prices in the city are very cheap. If you go, you must buy dried fruits, all of which cost 50 yuan and 3 Jin. If you don't buy them, you will regret it! Ejina Populus euphratica scenic spot is amazing, with plenty of dry food and water, and a free day is really enjoyable and satisfying. Try to wear a red skirt, which is a perfect match with Populus euphratica! It's too cold to watch the sunrise in Juyanhai, so you must wear the thickest warm equipment. We obviously have too little time left! I was freezing to death, so I watched the sunrise. The reeds, seagulls, blue sky, clear water and beaches in Juyanhai. These true colors have not been taken care of, and the tickets for this scenic spot are really wasted. The most painful thing is this trip! Port Zeke is also a tour. I went in at the coldest time, but everything was awake, and the market was about to open, but I left. —— Strong suggestion: Populus euphratica will travel alone, so just book accommodation in advance. This does not involve long-distance transportation, and it is best to travel freely. There are direct flights and trains, and you can relax for three or four days.
