The Shuidonggou site records the historical testimony of ancient humans' reproduction and struggle with nature, and contains rich and precious prehistoric information. It shows people a picture of the survival of ancient humans 40,000 years ago. It is the Paleolithic Age site that has been officially excavated in the Yellow River area in my country so far. In 1923, French paleontologists Teilhard de Chardin and Sang Zhihua discovered prehistoric cultural sites here. Through excavation, a large number of stone tools and animal fossils were unearthed. Therefore, Shuidonggou became the ancient human cultural site of the Paleolithic Age in my country. Now, after more than 80 years and six archaeological excavations, more than 30,000 stone tools and 67 ancient animal fossils have been unearthed in Shuidonggou. The Shuidonggou area is also home to the ancient Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty in northern my country, the "Hengcheng Dabian", beacon piers, city barriers, Tibetan caves, etc., which constitute the Grand View Garden of well-preserved military defense buildings in China. Shuidonggou is located on the southern edge of the Ordos Platform. The Yadan landform created by nature has experienced tens of millions of years of wind and sand sculptures.

    "During the National Day, in order to avoid the peak of the flow of people, I specially chose Ningxia in northern Shaanxi to travel. It turns out that I am right, there are few people, and the scenery is beautiful. This attraction was not going to go. Looking at the evaluation, many people said that it was boring. After I went there, I found out that it was really a miracle on earth. Also called Yucha Grand Canyon, the scenery is particularly beautiful, walking is not tired, the 70-year-old people have a good time"
    Ganquan
    94.6km from Wuqi
    Highlights: Ganquan Grand Canyon is located in Ganquan County, Shaanxi Province. It is composed of Huashugou, Huabaogou, Longbagou, Mudangou, Yixiantian and other scenic spots. Among them, the scenery of Huashugou is more brilliant. Hundreds of millions of years ago, a strong earthquake separated this loess mountain into a big crack, and after hundreds of years of rain erosion, such a canyon was slowly formed. The magical geology and landforms here are known as China's "Antelope Canyon", attracting countless photographers. When you walk into this magical canyon, the straight and staggered lines pass smoothly, the light and shadow are unpredictable, and the phantom is amazing, which makes people sincerely lament the uncanny craftsmanship of nature.

    "It is not easy to have such a green in the northwest area. The overall scenery is good and the summer climate is pleasant. It is a good place to escape the summer. There are not many roads to climb the mountain. It is also more suitable for the elderly and children. The tickets are not guests."

    "During the National Day, I chose to travel on a staggered peak. I went to northern Shaanxi with few people. I didn’t want to come to this attraction. After I came, I was on the way anyway. I found that the black was really good. Anyway, the two elderly people didn’t spend money. I spent more than 20 yuan alone. It’s good to play at will. For people in the south of the Yangtze River, there is nothing to do with water, but it is still very rare to see water with this kind of soil in northern Shaanxi."

    "The area of the scenic spot is very large. I heard from the staff that the water area of the Shahu Lake is as large as six West Lakes. It takes a long time to walk in the desert area. It is recommended that the scenic spot issue a package to let the desert projects that can be played together, so that it can reduce the itinerary and let our tourists increase their thoughts. Play experience. The water area of Shahu Lake is also very vast. I played flying fish on the water. It was 150 yuan a time. It was very exciting, but it was a bit "cost clothes". It is recommended that friends who want to play must prepare an extra set of clothes. Shahu is still worth going."

    "It belongs to Inner Mongolia, with grassland and sandy land, and a bonfire party at night. The scenic spot needs to take a shuttle bus. There are sheep and camels in the grassland, not far from Zhongwei. After going to Shapotou, you can go around, about an hour."

    "Take the children to play during the summer vacation. The Hongshi Gorge in Yulin is very good. There is a big river in the middle, and there are grottos on both sides of the cliffs. There are many celebrity stone carvings. I sigh the architectural wisdom of the ancients and admire the ancient humanities."
    Yulin.Yulin City Center
    >100km from Wuqi
    Highlights: Hongshi Gorge is located about 5 kilometers north of Yulin City. It is also called "Xiongshi Gorge" by the locals in the Yuxi River Valley at the foot of Hongshan Mountain at the mouth of the Ming Great Wall. The mountains and rivers are beautiful in the canyon, and there are many ancient temples in grottoes. The rock carvings in Hongshixia are divided into two parts: east and west. Most of them are works from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Although they are not very old, there are also many famous calligraphy works. On the east cliff of Hongshi Gorge, there are more than 80 inscriptions, most of which were carved during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. Among them, Zuo Zongtang's "Yuxi Resort" and Ma Zhanshan's "Huan My River and Mountain" are relatively famous; On the west cliff of Hongshi Gorge, there are about 30 inscriptions, some of which are a combination of special yin and yang inscriptions, and a Mongolian stone inscription "Tiancheng Xiongxiu", which is worth seeing. The earlier relics in Hongshi Gorge were the temples and grottoes of the Song and Yuan Dynasties, but now except for the painted paintings and carvings in some of the caves, the rest no longer exist. Among the existing grottoes, the fourth and sixth caves are still worth a visit. The carvings on the tops of the fourth and sixth caves are still well preserved, and the patterns of the sixth cave also have the meaning of the Menghan family. If you come to the grotto in summer, you will feel very cool. From here, tourists can also walk to the Tianmen Gate on the top of the cliff and the Dimen Gate leading to the waterside in the canyon. Hongshi Gorge is also the filming location of the movie "Evil in the East and Poison in the West". It is suitable for visiting in the evening and dusk. At this time, the canyon under the sunset glow is very artistic. Tourists can also walk from the West Cliff to the bottom of the canyon, where the Yuxi River flows, giving this northwestern frontier a bit of the beauty of the south of the Yangtze River. If you come here in summer, you can play in the water on the beach by the river.
