Riyue Mountains (Sun and Moon Mountains)
蜡蜡笔青团🍒Many people say that Sun Moon Mountain is boring, but I don't think so. I think Sun Moon Mountain in the off-season is great! The scenery is beautiful, and there are camels, yaks, and lambs. You can walk slowly to enjoy the scenery you haven't seen before and take beautiful photos. The wind is a bit strong, but it doesn't affect it. I still recommend everyone to go there once! ! !

Dongguan Mosque
AalessiainchinaWe came back to the Mosque twice, as first time we left with a sort of disappointment. The place, people and atmosphere are special, however the architecture is not as impressive. What is truly impressive is the Muslim district overall, especially the market. We bought fruit and bread and enjoyed lunch at one of the stalls, sharing a table with another local family. Everything was beyond imagination: colors, smells, tastes… A festival for the senses and the heart!Mosque: 3/5⭐️⭐️⭐️Market/atmosphere/people: 6/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Xining People's Park
琉琉璃仙境The People's Park in winter is reasonable to say that it is also time to go to sleep, sleep quietly, but the arrival of winter, the snow in the sky also brings alternative vitality to the park. The whiteness everywhere is an alternative beauty, and the lake in the center of the park has already frozen, and in half a month, you can skate on the ice. This year, the park also built a simple ski platform, and introduced ice cycling and rocking, which should have different fun. The park's Ferris wheel, pirate ship, disco turntable and other rides will continue to open, becoming a children's paradise.
