China has a desert that is famous abroad, yet little known by its own people

🌈 In the northwest, there is a magical desert with more than one hundred and forty lakes of various colors, which is very charming. This place is the Badain Jaran Desert. It has been named the most beautiful desert in China by 'Chinese National Geography' and is famous abroad, but little known to the Chinese people. The sand dunes in the desert have very beautiful lines, with various curves crisscrossing and constantly changing. The tall sand mountains are steep and majestic, with the Bilutu Peak standing at 1617 meters as the world's tallest sand peak, with a relative height difference of about 589 meters, earning it the nickname 'Everest of the Deserts'. Therefore, it has also become a sacred place in the hearts of many desert off-road pilgrims! 🔥 It is already a wonder to have lakes in the desert, but the lakes here are not only numerous but also colorful and dazzling. When sand dunes, sand peaks, lakes, light and shadow, homes, reeds, and various animals are interwoven, the scene is like a beautiful painting, as if entering a fairy tale world! Some lakes turn red due to a type of microorganism, and the color changes with the seasons (various shades of red) and dances with the light, so that every visit can be a delightful surprise! At the beginning of summer, the melting ice and snow from the Qilian Mountains gradually fill the desert with water, making it the most beautiful time (pink color). Even so, each lake has its own temperament, and the color changes according to its own character. Some lakes are the reddest in May and June, while others are the most beautiful in August and September. If you want to capture their most stunning moments, you have to wait for the best light... 🔵 Ways to play: Off-road vehicles, most people visit for 2 days, requiring a chartered vehicle. It is easy to get stuck and lost in the desert, so an experienced driver is needed. 🍜 Food and accommodation: There are campsites by each lake for dining and lodging, and the accommodations usually have air conditioning and private bathrooms. ⚠️Tips: 🌿 Remember to take pictures of the Milky Way, count the stars, and watch the moon at night, it's incredibly romantic 🌿 People with a history of motion sickness should not participate 🌿 When exactly do the red lakes turn red? This is related to the water level and light. Some are very red in May and June, while others are in August and September 🌿 The weather is hot, pay attention to sun protection and hydration 🌿 Drone perspectives are better
