Location: Helan Mountain Reserve near Yinchuan city in Ningxia province. Helan Mountain is a north-south mountain range located in the boundary of Ningxia and Inner Mongolia which is an important geographical boundary in northwestern China. It stretches 220 km (137 mi) from north to south. We took the cable car up and down. Not expensive and you get stunning views on the way. These mountains are unique and you can spend the whole day looking at the deers and watching the mountain tops. #helanmountain #yinchuan #ningxia

Location: Yinchuan city, Ningxia province. Chinese name: 阅海湾水上公园 English name: Yinchuan Water Park This park has a beautifully large lake that is stunning with the reflections of the buildings and flowers. I went several times at sunset to see the wonderful colours in the early summer evenings. Getting there: This lake is located in the center of Yinchuan city. Yinchuan is easily accessible via fast train and plane. #yinchuan #ningxia

Ningxia museum is a great place to check out to get a sense of the history of the area. There are tons of statues and pottery which have unique charm and history. I especially liked the cow/bull head. Pretty cool You can spend an hour or two here and soak it all in before continuing you're exploration of the area. Definitely a place to visit #yearofrabbit #newyearadventure #tripblazers #china #museum

We came to Yinchuan to go to the desert. Having an extra day to spend in the city I found this winery: it looked gorgeous and so European that we couldn't miss it. We took a taxi from our hotel (less than 20yuan), ticket cost 80yuan. We were almost alone! (mid August) First you visit the museum part (all written information is in Chinese and English) and then go to the degustation part (2 wine glasses and a small bottle of cognac were included) After visiting the manor house we went to the vinery, too. It was 💯 % worth visiting. Otherwise I'd never know Ningxia was such a famous wine region. 🥂 地址：银川市西夏区经济技术开发区六盘山路359号 #银川旅行张裕摩塞尔十五世酒庄 #yinchuan

Normally I travel on my own but sometimes it's much better to have a group tour. My friend and I bought a Chinese tour starting from Yinchuan and never regreted (our Chinese is rather basic but sometimes there are English speaking travel mates in such groups). It was a walking tour, about 52km totally (and this was the only regret 😂) , so on the 2d day we rented camels and rode 12km on camels (I'm a rider, it was OK for me, but you'd better check if it's ok for you with a small ride in advance 🤭) During the trip we saw a few lakes (I'll make another review of the red Swan lake) and all colors of the desert as the weather changed throughout the trip from sunny to rainy. The accommodation in Mongolian tents was OK, in the tents - quite basic, but definitely one to remember 😊. Overall it was a very bright experience (which due to covid restrictions is difficult to have on your own now) In Yinchuan we lived in Yihe hotel and some Labor hotel which accept foreigners.

Chinese wine is underrated! Ningxia province hosts some of the best wines in the country. You can have the opportunity to visit various wineries around this wine-filled province. ✨Make sure you make an appointment with the winery that you end up choosing. ✨You can rent a car or grab a Didi to the destination and talk with the driver to arrange the way back to the city as well. ✨You don’t have to go all the way to Europe for a unique wine tasting experience. You can taste incredible wines locally produced and discover the potential of Chinese wines. ✨Make sure to visit the Yinchuan stadium for a beautiful sunset. 💖Enjoy! . . . #summervacation #unforgettableexperiences #decembertravel #nyedestinations #newyearstravel #travelinspiration #springholiday #yinchuan #ningxia #wine #winetaste #winetasting

You can pretend to be in Byzantine Castle in Ningxia! Ningxia's most worthwhile winery list is definitely the Changyu Mosel XV winery. 2018 China Northwest Tourism Marketing Conference issued a heavyweight: "Magic Northwest 100 Scenes" list, 17 scenic spots in Ningxia, one of them is Zhang Yuning Xia Mosel 15th Winery. () Featured recommendation: () Ningxia Changyu Moss 15th Winery, designed by Lanyu Culture. The entire winery has invested nearly 790 million yuan. In the end, it was built with magnificent momentum, like the medieval Byzantine castle. (sweet) can be pretending to be abroad here, no wonder it has become the most popular tourist destination in all Ningxia wineries. I met the newcomer who took a wedding dress here, and I feel that it has become a wedding photo carding spot for Ningxia people. (Cool) There is also a wine museum; the entertaining wine museum uses interactive games such as cutting-edge technology augmented reality to unveil the mysterious veil of wine in the play. (Love) The constant temperature and humidity underground cellar is the palace of sleeping wine, the winding labyrinth, let you get close to the wine beauty. It is said that the wine produced here is only exported abroad. (Kiss) Not only is the castle popular among tourists, but the winery has always been striving for excellence in the winemaking process. The excellent quality of the wine not only impresses every wine lover, but also attracts the attention of the world's tourists.

The main shooting scenes of domestic classic film and television dramas are two: Nanhengdian North Town Fort This time card: Ningxia's Zhenbei Fort Western Film City Here is a famous film and television work: "Large words Journey to the West, "Red Sorghum" and other hundreds of works, the shooting area there are full memories of wood

If you say that Ningxia Yinchuan tourism has to go to an attraction, it must be the "West Xia Ling". "Xi Xia Ling" is located in the west of Yinchuan City, Helan Mountain, is the tomb of the ancient "Xi Xia Kingdom" emperors. Many people used to call it the "Western Xia Imperial Tomb", which is actually inaccurate. The correct statement should be "Xi Xia Ling". Because in the ancient Chinese tradition, the status of "king" was lower than that of "the emperor", and the "Western Xia Imperial Tomb" was suspected of being "degraded." "Xi Xia Ling" is now a national 4A-level tourist scenic spot, a national key cultural relics protection unit, a national key scenic spot, and was listed in the China World Cultural Heritage Pre-list in 2012, and many experts believe that the "West Xia Ling" is likely It will be China's next world heritage, what do you think?

Everyone should have been on the subway train, but do you know that there is a special "cloud track" in Yinchuan, Ningxia? "Cloud Track" Line 1 is located in Yinchuan Flower Expo Park. It is an overhead loop for rail transit. It is an air tour loop of Huaboyuan. The clearance is 6-8 meters, the total length of the line is 5.67 kilometers, and the train speed is 15 kilometers/hour. The interval runs for 30 minutes. The train departure station is built on the south side of Huabo Park in the south gate of the exhibition island. In order to better let passengers overlook the Huabo Garden from the air, the Cloud Track line along the line is in the islands. There are 8 interchange stations for major venues and attractions. Yinchuan Huaboyuan Cloud Track construction project was built by BYD Company. It took only 4 months from construction to operation, and it also created the most Yinchuan rail transit.

If you want to find a sentence to describe the Western Xia Imperial Tomb, then this sentence is a good fit.

The tomb is a little farther away, the sun in the north is extremely strong, the sky is beautiful, the blue sky and white clouds are distinct, and you will feel that everything in the world is quiet and beautiful, wearing stilettos, carrying drones, stepping on gravel when approaching the tomb. On the road, I walked very slowly, and the wind blew my hair and wrapped it on my body. Ok! I am intoxicated. Here, the whole person is empty, and the troubles of the earth are instantly dissipated in the wind. In many places, there will be magic powers that can bring us many different feelings, which will shock our hearts! In fact, at that moment, if there is no one, I would like to dance there! ! ! We are very puzzled as to why these mausoleums can be kept in the wind and sand without any cover and maintenance for so long. (After returning the information, I know that because the ground is covered with gravel and coarse sand, the foundation has large bearing capacity, poor water retention, natural drainage. The conditions are good, so that the Xixia Mausoleum successfully passed through many major earthquakes in the history of the Northwest, plus less precipitation, which is conducive to the overall protection of the cemetery.) Looking at the products of this ancient architectural technique, suddenly said that I want to go to Egypt. Look at the pyramid. The Western Xia Imperial Tomb is also known as the pyramid of China! I don't know how the Egyptian pyramid will bring people's feelings, and I am also looking forward to it! No matter how many roads I have traveled and how many scenery I have seen, I look forward to walking with you to see the beauty of this world... In 1920, after 190 years, the Xixia Dynasty, which had been on the side of the Chinese earthquake in Chinese history, was ruined. The family has also disappeared since then. Only the tall earthen mausoleum under the Helan Mountain, the Xixia Mausoleum, remains silent.

❤Why we recommend it: Every time I travel, Meihao is my first choice. This trip to Yinchuan, I chose this newly opened branch (less than two months old) with an excellent location—right across from Jinfeng Wanda Plaza. The building has six floors in total. ❤Why we recommend it: Upon arrival, the staff immediately offered a cup of hot tea before check-in. Initially assigned to Room 8603, I noticed the view outside the floor-to-ceiling windows was of a residential area, so I requested a street-facing room (8509) instead. Since the hotel is newly opened, there’s still a slight smell in the rooms, but it doesn’t affect the stay. The floor-to-ceiling windows have sliding panels for ventilation. Sleeping with the windows open at night wasn’t noisy—maybe because I was exhausted from traveling or simply enjoying Yinchuan’s spacious, low-population vibe, haha. 🌟Highlights: The room is about 38 square meters with a super comfortable 2-meter-wide bed, fresh-smelling sheets, and pillows that feel amazing. The sofa comes with cushions and built-in power outlets—perfect for lounging and charging devices. Such thoughtful design! 🌟Highlights: My favorite detail? The uniquely shaped potted plant on the desk—it’s so photogenic! Sipping coffee while daydreaming at the desk in the afternoon was pure bliss. 🌟Highlights: When you think of Yinchuan, goji berries come to mind. This hotel offers free goji berries at the lobby minibar, and they taste fantastic! ✅Must-try: The breakfast here is outstanding! With a wide variety of ingredients, including clear chicken soup—perfect for someone like me who needs soup daily. Big thanks to the chef for the delicious meals that brought me so much joy! 📝Tips: On the first day, the bathroom and smart toilet were spotless. On the second afternoon, we noticed some dirt on the toilet seat but assumed the cleaners missed it and didn’t report it. By the third evening, the toilet still hadn’t been cleaned, with the same dirt (unknown substance!) on the seat. We took photos and reported it to the front desk immediately. A cleaner in the hallway addressed the issue right away—very efficient. At checkout, we raised the concern again, and the staff took it seriously, even requesting photos via WeChat. We hope the hotel prioritizes toilet hygiene to ensure guests have a pleasant stay.

This film studio just 35 minutes outside of the city center is a really large area with a variety of different components. I chose to get the rickshaw walker who took pictures of me that was included in the price. The ticket price is not expensive and there is food available throughout the area. There are all different kinds of scenic sections where you can take photos and learn what life was like in the past. There’s a lot of promotional items throughout, but it doesn’t take away from the ambience of being on a film set. The drive from the city center is absolutely amazing because the land is so gorgeous and beautiful. Because this city is one of the cleanest in China, you can tell that a lot of love and effort have gone into promoting the area with culture and local flair. I highly recommend it. 🕰️Business Hours: Varies based on Night/Day ticket 🏖️BAmbiance/Facilities: Rustic and Dusty, Family-Fun 📍Address: XiXia No. 400, Wenchang North Street #yinchuan 💰Average Price per Person: 30-100RMB 💞Reasons to Recommend: 3 hours easily, elderly snd children friendly, options for Tuk Tuk or rickshaw, photo ops, food, souviniers, eateries Take a train truck there and make your own movie !

Sheraton Yinchuan Experience: A Blend of Business and Warmth in the "Jiangnan of the Frontier" 🌿 City Impressions & Location Yinchuan, often called the "Jiangnan of the Frontier," greeted me with cool, pleasant weather after rain during my business trip. The hotel is nestled next to a natural park, offering lush green views from the workspace, adding a touch of serenity to the journey. 📍 Location: A Balance of Convenience & Tranquility - For business travelers: Walking distance to the representative office maximizes commute efficiency.

The stylish lobby, complemented by a romantic wedding setup near the restaurant, earns high marks for aesthetics. 💁 Front Desk Service: Professionalism with a Human Touch - Service had minor inconsistencies: Some staff could refine their communication, but the duty manager stepped in promptly, efficiently arranging a room upgrade and demonstrating problem-solving skills. - A standout moment: The duty manager proactively addressed room issues, offering an apology, a welcome gift (fruit and wine), and even assisting with medicine and a thermometer when I felt unwell. This end-to-end care—from "identifying problems" to "active compensation"—radiated genuine warmth. 🏘️ Room Type/Layout: From Detail Optimization to Comfort Upgrade - The initial suite showed wear (faulty wardrobe lighting, sticky sliding door), slightly dampening the experience. After feedback, the replacement room the next day was a delight: spacious, pristine, and meticulously clean, with a bright view (as pictured), significantly boosting comfort. - Room designs balance functionality and aesthetics, catering to both business and leisure stays. 🧹 Soundproofing/Cleanliness: Foundations of Peace & Hygiene Excellent soundproofing ensured undisturbed rest, while the second room’s meticulous cleanliness and well-maintained fixtures reflected the hotel’s attention to detail. 🍽️ Breakfast: A Practical, Balanced Spread The breakfast offered a solid mix of Chinese and Western staples—not extravagant but thoughtfully curated with mains, hot dishes, and beverages, meeting energy needs and holding its own among peers. 🛌 Amenities/Facilities: Reliable Hardware, Thoughtful Touches The hotel’s hardware is well-maintained; the second room’s fixtures were brand-new, from bathroom to furniture, showcasing quality control. 💗 Extra Tips 1. Service communication: For requests, engage the duty manager directly—efficient solutions often come with thoughtful perks. 2. Room advice: First-time guests can note "prefer newly renovated rooms" to avoid wear-and-tear issues. 3. Local experiences: Stroll the nearby natural park post-meals; add the Ningxia Museum and local food spots to your itinerary for a taste of Yinchuan’s culture and vibrancy. **Verdict** Sheraton Yinchuan shines not just for its castle-like facade and prime location, but for its "service warmth beyond hardware"—from the duty manager’s proactive problem-solving to heartfelt gestures. It’s a testament to their genuine care for guest experiences. If you seek a trip that marries business efficiency with leisure comfort, this hotel—quietly dedicated in the "Jiangnan of the Frontier"—belongs on your list. After all, places that convey sincerity in the details make even unfamiliar cities feel like a warm embrace. ~
