Maqu Grassland Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Maqu Grassland is located in Maqu County in the southwest of the autonomous prefecture. The Yellow River enters from the southwest and exits from the northwest on this grassland of more than 10,000 square kilometers, forming the first bend among the nine bends. In this beautiful and rich first bend of the Yellow River, there are many fascinating grassland landscapes that make people linger, such as Hequ Horse Farm, Ximeiduohetang (meaning flower beach), etc.
Ximeiduohetang is located in Oulaxiuma Township, 120 kilometers west of Maqu County. It is a flat river valley beach that stretches for dozens of kilometers. In mid-July every year, the entire beach is covered with neat and flat golden lotus flowers. In August, the golden lotus flowers quietly retreat, replaced by sky-blue gentian flowers, and the entire flower beach is azure blue, connecting the beach to the sky, and the sky and the earth are the same color. In October, the tops of the surrounding mountains are already covered with snow, but here they are replaced by spotted buttercups. These are the three wonders of the flowers of Ximeiduohetang.
There are also grasslands with their own characteristics, such as Marizaxi Beach, Jinmuduo Zaxi Beach, and Songger. Among them, Marizaxi Beach is eight kilometers away from the county seat, and the beach is flat and wide. In summer, some traditional religious activities and mass sports activities are held here. At that time, the grass is green and the white tents are dotted. The herdsmen are dressed in ethnic costumes and the horses are going back and forth, which is very lively.
