Silk Road Fourth Stop｜Wuhai Travel Notes

🌆Wuhai, at first hearing the name, it is easy to be mistaken for a coastal city, but it is actually located in the western part of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, formed by the merger of Wuda City and Haibowan City in 1976. 🏹According to historical research, this place was once the frontline of the war between the Central Plains dynasty and the northern nomadic tribes, and it was also an important place for trade and cultural exchanges between the two sides during peaceful times. 🏯The Manbalasang Temple in Hainan District has a history of more than 200 years. The main body is built on a cliff, steep peaks, huge buildings, golden roofs, showing a majestic momentum, and it seems to bring people to the Potala Palace. 🏜️'Watching the sea in the desert' is a major feature here. The west side of Wuhai is only separated by a river from the Ulan Buh Desert. What is surprising is that the 118 square kilometers of Wuhai Lake and the desert have become one, forming a spectacular scene of sand and water interweaving. ⛰️Looking east, the distant Gandor Mountain is not only the city's highest peak, but also becomes a landmark building of Wuhai because of the Genghis Khan statue. 🏞️The arch of the mountain and the nourishment of the water have made this land rich and the people comfortable. 🌄At dusk, many tourists will come to the lake in groups, encounter the romance unique to Wuhai: desert style, lake and mountain scenery, breeze blowing, reeds blooming, enjoy the relaxation of travel in the mountains and rivers, and make people linger.
