Ningxia Guyuan: The Pearl of the South China Sea on the Ancient Silk Road

Guyuan, located in the south of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, is the southern gate of Ningxia, the Loess Plateau and Loess Hills transition zone, known as the "West Haiku". This important node on the ancient Silk Road was historically the gateway between the Central Plains and the Western Regions, and the ruins of the Great Wall of Qin and the Sumeru Grottoes bear witness to a thousand years of civilization. Liupan Mountain stretches across the territory, and the Red Army's heroic poem of "It is not a good man until he reaches the Great Wall" was born here, where the red culture and natural scenery are intertwined. Here the climate is pleasant, the Jing River is clear, the Flint Danxia landforms are unique, and the potato, hu ma and other products are bountiful. Multi-ethnic settlement of Guyuan, a blend of farming culture and nomadic style, is a must-visit place to experience the northwest flavor, but also to feel the "South of the River" diversified charm of the window.
