Totally worth the trip! Encountered the sunrise of my dreams at Juyan Lake

Juyan Lake in Ejina Banner, Alxa League, Inner Mongolia, fulfilled my dream sunrise! Although the sun was a bit shy 😜 and hid behind the clouds right after showing up, this fairyland known as the "Desert Heavenly Pool" still took my breath away✨ 🕊️In the morning light, flocks of seagulls dance gracefully, as if telling the thousand-year-old stories of ancient Juyan🕯️ 🌊Sailing across the lake, my mind was filled with the imagery of Wang Wei’s poem "Envoy to the Frontier," where the grandeur and poetry of the northwest desert perfectly blend📜 📍Location: About 50 km northwest of Dalaihubu Town, Ejina Banner, Alxa League, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region ⏰Best viewing time: Mid-September to mid-October Tips: 1️⃣Arrive at the viewing platform before 5 AM to secure the best spot📸 2️⃣The temperature difference is big, so bring an extra jacket in the early morning🧥 3️⃣Bring a telephoto lens to perfectly capture the moment when seagulls dance with the morning light📷 Although I got up at 3 AM to rush here, the moment I saw this blue expanse, all the fatigue turned into happiness😭
