Dahai Desert: Explore the "Mars Secret" of Xinjiang and unlock the ultimate adventure!

In the vast Xinjiang, there is a "wild land" that can be legally crossed - the Dahai Desert. It is like a time tunnel that connects Dunhuang and Turpan, stretching for 500 kilometers, waiting for brave adventurers to explore. Stepping into it, you will feel like you are on an alien surface. The wind and sand are the master sculptors, carving for millions of years, creating strange and unique Yadan landforms. Some look like giant beasts, some look like ancient castles, with different heights and majestic momentum. Every step is a new "painting" that shocks you. In the past, it was an important road of the ancient Silk Road. The ink marks in the "Xizhou Map" are full of past prosperity, and the sound of camel bells seems to still echo in the wind. Now, there are rules to follow for starting a crossing journey. Drive from Hami City to the east gate of the scenic area, rest for a night at the Hongliutan Visitor Center, and then drive out from the north gate the next day to enjoy the essence of the whole journey. Ordinary cars can taste the Yadan scenery, but if you want to enjoy the beautiful scenery in the second half, a four-wheel-drive SUV is the best "partner." Don't worry about accommodation, the Hongliutan Visitor Center is comfortable and pleasant, and the Mars Base adds a sci-fi atmosphere. Of course, this adventure is not easy. The mobile phone signal is often "lost," and the navigation arrow is spinning, but it is this kind of unknown that ignites the passion! When there is only the sound of wind and the sound of wheels rolling over sand and stones around you, look up at the clear sky, embrace loneliness and magnificence, and the heroism of past explorers surges in your heart. Every moment is engraved in your memory. The Dahai Desert invites you to a dream journey beyond the ordinary and challenges the limits with its desolation! Dahai Desert
