Crescent Moon Lake in Dunhuang… stunning

Is this China? Yes! I know it’s hard to believe but this fascinating desert is found in Gansu province. You can arrive by plane, but we took a long drive through Qinghai province to arrive. The sand dunes are flawless, the views are outstanding, and the experience is unforgettable. Don’t miss out on this unique destination in China! Enjoy the delectable late night street food downtown, the sand sleds on the dunes, the Crescent Lake night sunsets, and the MoGao Caves nearby for ancient Silk Road history. #gansuroadtrip #dunhuang #deserts #dunes #crescentmoonlake #sand #silkroad

Desert inspiration 🏜🐫

A place to frolic, indulge, connect and create. Mind, spirit and body rejuvenated in an atmosphere of beauty and care for the natural surroundings… this is what Al Maha, A Luxury Collection Desert Resort & Spa stands for ❤️🌎🦌🍃 As a resort accommodation, the Bedouin-style luxury of Al-Maha is unparalleled… from the all-villa (with pool!), full board concept to its personalised, white glove type service - which I lapped up, of course 🥂 In terms of eco-sustainability, it lies at the heart of the Dubai Conservation Reserve, taking up only 0.2% of the area for development. The rest is protected for the cultivation of native plants (some 6,000 acacia, sidr and gaff are planted by them) and for animals like the Oryx. Guests get to appreciate the local fauna and flora up close and personal, with native wildlife like deer roaming their villa compound and complimentary experiences that are educational, such as the nature desert walk and morning falconry demonstrations- both must do’s in my book! 😎 . . . . . . #desert #dubai #almaha #luxury #glamping #wildlife #cameltrek #falconry #poolvilla #dunes #sundowner #oilpastel #pentel #oryx #greentrip

Into the desert we go 🌵🐫

Flying to Dunhuang and visiting the Cresent Spring and Echo Sand Mountains. What a day! The weather was perfect , there were so many activities to do but our time was limited. The main activity was riding a Camel for an hour, which was so cool . Climbing a sand dune, which was tough but luckily for us you could choose between walking up on your own or using some sort of climbing stair. When you get half way down the dune, you can either walk , run or slide down. We ended off with enjoying a VR hot air balloon. What a great experience! The desert was definitely one of the best activities of our trip. #passionpassport #deserts #dunes #camelride

Red Sand Dunes - Mui Ne, Vietnam

Red Sand Dunes are smaller than White Sand Dunes but no less beautiful. It is convenient to combine it with a visit to the White Dunes and the Red Canyon, and, which is good, they are located very close to the resort area of ​​Mui Ne and you can even get to them by bicycle. In fact, the dunes are not red at all, but rather yellow or orange. They become reddish only under certain lighting conditions. Opposite the dunes across the road there are several cafes where you can drink soft drinks and leave your vehicles in the parking lot. #asiatrip #passionpassport #vietnam #summervacation #dunes #asia #travelinspiration

White Sand Dunes - Mui Ne, Vietnam

White Sand Dunes, along with the Red Dunes, are considered the most beautiful places in the province and are undoubtedly the most famous landmark of Mui Ne. The white dunes are made up of yellow and white sand. They are very similar to the Sahara. The locals call them "Bau Trang", which translates as "white lake". Here you will find many stalls with food and drinks. They usually huddle near pine trees, where they can rest in the shade. The dunes are located 26 km northeast of Mui Ne. On the way to the dunes, you will encounter smaller yellow and white sand formations, but don't confuse them with the main dunes. Near the white dunes there is another attraction - Lotus Lake. #asiatrip #vietnam #dunes

White Sand Dunes Beach

If you are on vacation in Malacca City and want an interesting beach destination, one of the closest is Pantai Klebang. The location is only about 5-6 km from Bandar Hilir Melaka. Generally, Klebang Beach is a public recreational beach and not a long resort beach like Port Dickson Beach or Cherating Beach. The beach here is very wide and suitable for activities such as kite flying, beach soccer and so on. In fact, there are many who come here just to relax and see the view of the beach and 'treat the soul' alone. It's true what people say, if your mind is full, come to the beach to see the vast ocean. #klebang #pantaiklebang #whitesanddune #dunes #beachview

Dunhuang is a desert paradise

Utah is home to some of the most pristine landscapes on the planet. There is something new around every corner. One of these such places is the Coral Pink Sand Dunes. They are a massive stretch of dunes created from erosion of the surrounding sandstone. The park was established in 1963 and has been a great p[lace to enjoy the outdoors since then. You are usually able to see the “pink” hue on the dunes late in the day. They are best seen around sunset or sunrise, when the sunlight illuminates the sand perfectly. #utah #awesomepic #dunes #photographyguide
