The free interpreter explained very seriously, the walking route was reasonably arranged, the environment was elegant, and I saw the Yanyang on the return trip. It is recommended to watch the rock painting first, and then watch the World Rock Painting Hall carefully when you return, which is more impressive.

If you go to Ningxia, you must come to punch the Helan Mountain. There are many murals on the mountain on the side of the Helan Mountain mural. There are also opportunities to see the rock sheep, but you have to look carefully, otherwise it is easy to miss!
It was more fun than expected. I thought that children would not like it. We found a scenic spot to explain, provide one-to-one service, the experience is not bad, the children are very happy. You can also go directly to Helan Mountain to see the scenery. The weather was not so good that I didn’t see the most beautiful scenery.
I took the bus from the bus tour distribution center. The fare was 15 yuan. It took about 2 hours. It took 11 o'clock to arrive at 9 o'clock. It seems that the private car can be driven directly in. The park ticket bought in the bus driver's hand, the fare is 60, the online purchase is about 68, and I spent two hours in it, came out at one o'clock, then took a little rest, eat something, and took the bus back at two o'clock.
The desolate and simple contains ancient stories, it is recommended to go. Fortunately, I listened to the provincial museum interpreter in advance to share the background of the rock painting, and came to the scene like a treasure hunt. I originally wanted to make another explanation at the scene, but I sat a few people and said that no one was there. I didn't rule out that it was just 11 o'clock at the time. I was close to noon and I didn't take the order. The interpreter was not sensitive. The story was also the same as the roadside card. Don't miss it. If there is plenty of time, you don't need to take a shuttle bus, the distance is very close, and you can also have an encounter with Yanyang. If you arrange to be here all day, you can also consider going to the forest park five kilometers away.
The scenic spot is more than 30 kilometers away from Yinchuan City. I rented a car in the city and drove it to the foot of Helan Mountain. It happened to be rainy when I went. The scenic spot felt good. The rock paintings were very distinctive and strange, especially the rock paintings of the Sun God, carved on the rock wall about 20 meters high from the river valley. There is a small platform to see, but there is no sign nearby, you need to carefully find, the rock painting group is suitable for taking children to see, very similar to the children's graffiti painting, the scenic spot is not big, the distance is not very long, the whole journey is about two hours!
Helan Mountain Rock Painting is an art gallery of nomadic peoples in China. Helan Mountain was a place where the northern minorities such as Hunnu, Xianbei, Turkic, Huiqi, Tuqi, and Party Xiang lived and reproduced in ancient times. In the hinterland of Helan Mountain, which is more than 200 kilometers in the north and south, there are more than 20 remaining rock paintings, the most representative of which is Helankou rock painting. The scenic spot of Helan Mountain rock painting is beautiful, the strange peaks are stacked, and the spring water flows out of the ditch. About 6,000 mysterious ancient rock paintings are distributed in the valley.
The rock paintings from 3,000 to 10,000 years ago, and the elf rock sheep on the cliffs are worth visiting.
