Endless vitality, let the precious heritage shine in the new era - Badain Jaran Desert

📍Want to explore a mysterious and beautiful desert? Badain Jaran Desert is waiting for you! It is located in Badain Jaran Town, Alxa Right Banner, and is a paradise for adventurers and photographers. ✈️How to get there? You can fly to Xi'an or Lanzhou first, then transfer to Zhangye or Jinchang. Jinchang is recommended as a transfer station. After arriving in Jinchang, you can contact the off-road vehicle in advance and head to Badain Jaran Desert. Since desert off-roading is difficult, it is recommended to choose a local experienced driver to lead the way to avoid getting lost! 🌟There are many attractions worth visiting in Badain Jaran Desert: 1️⃣ Red Lake: This is a scenic spot recommended by China National Geographic. The rose-like red salt lake is beautiful and is an excellent shooting location for photography enthusiasts. 2️⃣ Temple Lake: This temple in the desert is like the ancient city of Tongjing in the Tomb Notes. If you get up early, you can also see the reflection of the water and the sky, which is beautiful. 3️⃣ Two-color Lake: A red and a blue lake complement each other. The red lake is more concentrated and easy to shoot. Aerial photography can capture its beauty. 4️⃣ Undulating sand dunes: At sunrise and sunset in Badain Jaran, the lines of the sand dunes are particularly shocking. You can ask the driver to take you to the vicinity of the beautiful sand dunes and capture the shocking moments. 🔥The recommended route is to charter a car for two days and one night, so you can fully enjoy the popular route. Enter the desert on the afternoon of the first day, play to the camp near Temple Lake, enjoy the sunset and shoot the starry sky, and stay at the camp at night. Continue to visit Temple Lake, Red Lake, and Two-color Lake on the second day, return to the highway in the afternoon, and arrive in Zhangye for a rest in the evening. If you want to take beautiful photos, it is recommended to spend an extra day exploring!
