[2025 Zhongning Attraction] Travel Guide for Huangyanggu Luo Tourism Resort (Updated Apr)

Ningxia Zhongwei, a seriously underestimated treasure town! Here I got to know a niche secret place - Huangyang Ancient Falls. It is gently embraced by the lush ancient jujube forest 🌲, facing the desert to the north and the Yellow River to the south. Strolling in the ancient village 🏡, it feels like being in a quiet paradise, and it is very small, it is really suitable for avoiding the crowds and playing in person! 🚗Transportation Self-driving: It takes about 2 hours to drive from Yinchuan Airport/Yinchuan Railway Station About 30 minutes by car from Zhongwei Airport/Railway Station 🐴Intangible cultural heritage experience Huangyang Guluo is an intangible cultural heritage inheritance base, where you can witness the craft of making Pengzi noodles with your own eyes and also participate in the production yourself. You can also experience the charm of the Yellow Sheep Money Whip Dance with your children and learn a dance with the teacher💃 🐴Play and check-in items ✅Ancient Great Wall: On the ridge of Huangyangwan in the back mountain, there is an ancient Ming Great Wall, but it is no longer allowed for tourists to climb. You can look at it from afar at your feet. ✅Beacon tower: an ancient beacon tower from the Ming Dynasty, where you can overlook the surrounding scenery ✅Prehistoric rock paintings: There are more than 20 Huangyangwan murals created 10,000 years ago in the ancient Houshan Mountain, which are of great historical significance. ✅Shuanglongshan Grottoes: Known as the "Little Dunhuang on the Silk Road", it was excavated in the Tang Dynasty and is an important post station and cultural and religious holy place on the Silk Road. ✅Route 88: It starts from Yugong Road in the north and ends at Huangyanggulou in the south. It is 8.8 kilometers long, hence the name Route 88. Along the way, you will pass through the empty Gobi Desert, the desolate desert, and the undulating valleys. It is very spectacular and really nice to take pictures. 🐴Accommodation This time we chose to stay at the Xide Holiday Farm, which is directly in the scenic area, making it more convenient for sightseeing. The holiday farm is an earth-toned building surrounded by lush green forests, with mountains and deserts behind it, which really gives it a fairy-tale feel! The farm has many room types to choose from, including courtyard rooms with ancient village views and courtyards with their own hot springs. Just think about playing for a day and taking a hot spring bath to eliminate all the fatigue! The room is equipped with advanced intelligent system, making the stay very comfortable. 🐴Tips for playing 🌞Ningxia's ultraviolet rays are very strong, remember to bring sun protection equipment 🌞The climate is relatively dry, so please drink more water. Also prepare moisturizing creams, facial masks, lipsticks, etc., especially for children whose skin is fragile and prone to cracking. 🌞The temperature difference between day and night is large, remember to bring a jacket, jacket and long pants 🌞It is recommended to wear long boots👢, which can not only make your look more stylish but also prevent sand from getting into your shoes

With the rising popularity of the Tengger Desert and Route 66, more and more people are traveling to Zhongwei, Ningxia. Compared to the popular tourist spots, I prefer the century-old ancient village of Huangyang in Zhongwei, which is far from the hustle and bustle. It is located in Yuding Township, Zhongning County, Zhongwei City. 'Yuding,' as the name suggests, is a settlement of military farm personnel and their descendants under the ancient military farming system. Many century-old ancient villages have faded into the dust of history, but Huangyang Ancient Village is quite the opposite; it has become more vibrant and interesting over time. At the end of July this year, I specifically went to Huangyang Ancient Village for a weekend, partly to see the ancient rock paintings and the Shuanglong Mountain Grottoes that I had longed to see, and partly to experience the newly opened Xiecheng Resort Farm. The entire resort farm is in the style of traditional residential suites, scattered among the century-old jujube trees in Huangyang Ancient Village, mysterious and tranquil. Since it is newly opened, the hardware facilities and supporting environment are quite good and very clean. There are many facilities for children to play with, and many parents bring their children here for vacation. According to the service staff, there are also rooms with private hot springs, but unfortunately, I didn't book one. Even if you don't go out, there are many things to do in the village, such as watching the Huangyang money whip performance live, personally experiencing the making of intangible cultural heritage haizi noodles, and observing ancient rock paintings on-site. The village's outskirts are close to the Yellow River diversion canal, the winding Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty, and towering beacon towers. Next to the village, an 88 Road has been developed, where you can drive desert buggies at high speed and experience the thrill of speed and passion! In the evening, you can return to the resort farm for barbecues and fireworks, which is very pleasant. Six kilometers from Huangyang Ancient Village is the Shuanglong Mountain Grottoes, which were excavated during the Tang Dynasty. There are 13 grottoes in total, and the nine beamless caves are worth seeing. This place is also known as the Little Dunhuang on the Silk Road. In addition to the grottoes, the architecture here is also magnificent, with a three-story mountain building integrated with the caves. At the top of the mountain, there are ruins of the Ming Dynasty Great Wall, with beacon towers scattered around. To the north is the Tengger Desert, and to the south is the Yellow River, offering a spectacular view. Unfortunately, the grottoes were not properly protected before, and some damage is heartbreaking. 📍Scenic Spot Address: Huangyang Ancient Village Tourist Resort, Zhongning, Ningxia 🚗Transportation: 13.1 kilometers from Zhongning Railway Station, 42.5 kilometers from Zhongwei Shapotou Airport 👍️Must-visit Spots: Yellow River Diversion Canal, Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty, Shuanglong Mountain Grottoes, 88 Road 🎟️Ticket Information: Adults 30 yuan 💗Other Tips: Recommended stay for 1-2 days
