Yinchuan is my first stop in the northwest. Before I came here, I was not particularly impressed with it, because to be honest, for a person who has never been there, neither Yinchuan nor Ningxia has a sense of existence. Neither Yinchuan nor Ningxia knows. To tell the truth, I went to Yinchuan that time because the air tickets from Shanghai to Yinchuan were cheap.

However, after I went there, I found that Yinchuan had subverted my previous impression. Briefly talk about the 10 impression that Yinchuan gave me.

After getting off the airport bus, the driver didn't open the luggage door until everyone got off the bus to avoid making mistakes. Although it was a small matter, it really touched me. It is no exaggeration to say that this is the first time I have met an airport bus in China. I have also been to many places, but it is really the first time I have seen it. I don't know whether this driver is conscientious or whether the airport bus in Yinchuan is such a rule.

Yinchuan is my first stop in the northwest, and it is also my first time to go to the northwest. Before that, the northwest city can't be said to be desolate in my impression, but drought and lack of rain, sandstorms and dust storms will definitely leave some marks on the city, but Yinchuan is definitely beyond my expectation. It is clean and tidy, even better than some northern cities in the mainland, and there are many parks. When the weather is fine, you can't connect here with the northwest at all.

In addition to being clean and tidy, Yinchuan is also very impressive, that is, spacious, with eight lanes and ten lanes everywhere. The width of that road is exaggerated, and there are relatively few cars and few traffic jams.

Compared with Lanzhou or Xining, which are both the capital cities of northwest China, the population density of Yinchuan is relatively small. Except for the crowded Huaiyuan night market, there are really not so many people on the streets in other places. Coupled with the spacious roads, there are even fewer people in this background.

Another thing that impressed me was the details of Yinchuan, which is a model city of smart city. At the intersection, there is a shade shed at the red light. There are many devices dedicated to throwing cigarette butts on the road. Huaiyuan Night Market has a fair scale, and basically there are the cities with the most toilets on the streets I have ever seen. Many details make people feel good.

I don't feel good about Yinchuan's food as a whole, especially compared with Lanzhou. Maybe there are some things I don't like, such as mutton, which I don't eat very much. I can only eat two bites of roast mutton at most.

For example, when you mention Lanzhou, you will think of beef noodles, potato chips and grey beans. In contrast, I feel that there are not many special snacks in Yinchuan with unique labels.

But it doesn't mean there is no food in Yinchuan. For example, I love Huaiyuan Night Market. Snacks and fruits are available, and they are very standardized and hygienic. It's not the dirty and oily feeling of some night markets at all.

Spicy strips, beef patties, spicy noodles, roast chicken eggs, roasted gluten, kebabs and so on are all common snacks in the night market.

Especially sweet embryo milk tea. The sweet embryo milk tea I drank in Huaiyuan night market in Yinchuan was better than that I drank in Lanzhou and Xining.

There are many fruit stalls in Huaiyuan night market, which are cheaper and watermelons are very sweet. The fruits sold here are relatively cheap, which was unexpected at first, but later I remembered that Ningxia is called Jiangnan, which is rich in fruits and vegetables, and has been dry and sunny for a long time. Watermelons in Ningxia are especially sweet.

It is true that the bus service in Yinchuan ended early. Some buses ended at seven o'clock in the evening and then at nine o'clock in the evening, which made me always pay attention to the time of the last bus when I went to Huaiyuan night market for dinner at night. So I also suggest that you can live near Huaiyuan night market.

It's dark in Yinchuan, and the bus stops early. It's inconvenient to go to Blue Mountain Park to watch the sunset and come back without a car.

It is said that the northwest people are simple and enthusiastic, and I really feel deeply when I first arrived in Yinchuan. And compared with Lanzhou and Xining, I still think people in Yinchuan are the most enthusiastic. For example, in many places, taxi drivers will take the initiative to talk to you and provide you with some travel information. The next sentence may be asking if you want to rent a car, but not in Yinchuan. In Yinchuan, the master will tell you in detail even if he doesn't do your business.

Although Yinchuan and Ningxia seem to have no sense of existence, Yinchuan's tourism resources are still very rich. Compared with Xining in Lanzhou next door, it is absolutely crushed (what is said here is only the comparison of urban tourism resources, not the comparison of tourism resources in three provinces)

Zhenbeibao western cinema

It is estimated that many people come to Yinchuan for the 5A scenic spot in Yinchuan. In the early years, many classic films were shot from here, such as Red Sorghum, Longmen Inn and A Chinese Odyssey. Especially the tower where the Supreme Treasure talks with Xia Zixian.

Speaking of Zhenbeibao, I really admire it and feel deeply. An artificial scenic spot, originally a piece of loess, has no natural advantages of nature, but it can be so classic, and it has the feeling of creating conditions to develop tourism, and there are no conditions. It's really amazing.

Western Xia imperial tombs

In Ningxia, where the sense of existence is not strong, there is also a dynasty with a weak sense of existence in history, that is Xixia, which has not even been written into the twenty-fourth history. Xixia Mausoleum and Ningxia Museum can take you into that period of history. Before going, I specially watched the documentary "Mysterious Xixia" and visited the northwest. It is really necessary to watch documentaries in advance to make up knowledge.

Take bus 1 directly, or take bus 108 in the city to the first and last stations of Xixia Square, and then take a taxi 10 yuan.

75, sightseeing bus 20.

Ningxia museum

Not only can you see the rock paintings of Helan Mountain for free, but you can also see Ningxia from the Neolithic Age, the Spring and Autumn Warring States Period to the Ming and Qing Dynasties in history. The organization and timeline are extremely clear, the external buildings are magnificent, and the internal exhibits are carefully operated. Personally, I suggest that you learn about the history of Ningxia in the museum before starting your next trip to Ningxia.

In addition, there are rock paintings of Helan Mountain: an art museum of nomadic people 3000- 10000 years ago. Shuidonggou: A-level scenic spot, the birthplace of prehistoric archaeology, and the site of the Ming Great Wall. Old capital of Huangsha: one of the eight scenic spots in Ningxia, desert scenery and ancient rhyme of the Yellow River. Sand lake: half desert and half lake. Wait a minute. These.

There are Drum Tower and Lanshan Park in the urban area, as the name implies, overlooking Helan Mountain.

Those who like art can also go to Yinchuan Museum of Contemporary Art, which is also large in scale. Besides watching exhibitions, it is also suitable for taking portrait photos.

In short, Yinchuan's tourism resources are absolutely unexpected and surprising.

The above is the 10 impression I left when I first went to Yinchuan. Welcome to talk about Yinchuan in your eyes in the comments section.
