[2025 Zhongwei Attraction] Travel Guide for Shapotou Scenic Area (Updated Jan)

Zhongwei City, located in the central and western part of the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region of China, is a place full of natural scenery and historical culture. Zhongwei is a frontier fortress on the 'Silk Road' and has been a strategic military location in the northwest region since ancient times. Currently, it is the third largest railway traffic hub connecting the northwest and north China, and is a must-pass place for the 'East-West Passage' of the Eurasian Continental Bridge. The territory integrates five major landforms: river alluvial plain, plateau, desert, mountain, and hill, and is known as 'The Yellow River enriches Ningxia, and Zhongwei is the richest'. Zhongwei has the national 4A-level tourist attraction Shapotou, which integrates sand, mountains, rivers, and gardens; the Sikouzi tourist area known for its dangerous and unique Danxia landform; the Paleolithic site of Yibowquan, ancient rock paintings, Zhongwei Gaomiao, Shuanglongshan Grottoes, Haiyuan 'Global Earthquake' site and many other historical sites and scenic spots. They are not only unique tourism resources, but also show the brilliant ancient civilization and profound cultural heritage of Zhongwei, winning the reputation of 'Cultural Pearl of the Frontier'. Here is the boundless desert, here is the most romantic hotel, here is the night sky full of stars... Various labels make everyone curious and longing for it. I believe there is always one reason that attracts you to visit.

Zhongwei City, located in the middle of Ningxia, is not unfamiliar to those who love travel and life! 'Desert solitary smoke straight' is her true portrayal, the sunset glow is her most beautiful color, the vast Yellow River flows through, the easily overlooked grassland and other elements constitute a magnificent natural scroll unique to Zhongwei. This beautiful scroll, we can slowly open it to appreciate its magnificence! 1⃣️Zhongwei Museum To understand a city, start from its museum, and so is Zhongwei. Walking into the museum, through the displayed cultural relics and materials, you can understand its past and present in a more direct way! 2⃣️Shapotou As the first batch of national 5A scenic spots, Shapotou has become the most representative scenic spot in Zhongwei. Here you can delve into the majestic desert scenery and enjoy the magnificent view of the Yellow River. 3⃣️ Tengger Desert As an important filming location for the movie 'The Treasure Hunter' starring Jay Chou, the Tengger Desert has long entered the public eye. Here you can see both the vast desert landscape and the rippling lake scenery, you can experience desert star camping, and you can ride a camel to chase the sunset in the sand sea. 4⃣️Route 66 The spectacular rock desert standing in the sand sea records the vicissitudes of Zhongwei; the flocks of sheep that often appear on both sides of the road add vitality and color to this sand sea; in the evening, the sunset glow, press the shutter at this moment, what is recorded is the best scenery of Zhongwei!

Took a trip out of the city to see China's northwest! Great way to spend the New Year holiday. Recommendations: 1. Desert Star Hotel (沙漠星星) it's about two hours from Yinchuan airport by high-speed rail and then taxi. Great sunrise views over the sand dunes! 2. Xipo Hostel in Shapotou. It has a very old west Americana vibe with an awesome little community. Also you can see parts of the old Great Wall 3. Route 66 … a 1km stretch of road that is very "instagrammable". Really only for the pictures, you can skip if it's not your thing. #newyearstrip #ningxia

Shapotou: fading away

After reading "Shahai", I have been longing for the vast desert scenery. Therefore, the first stop of Ningxia travel has arranged Shapotou in Ningxia. This is also the location of the first quarter of "Where is Dad?" Beauty can't be described. Summer and autumn are the best seasons for Shapotou tourism. At this time, the scenery of Shapotou is also the best in the year. The temperature in summer is not high, it is relatively cool. If you go out to play, it is recommended that you wear a thin T-shirt. It is best to have a brightly colored photo that will look great. But try not to wear a skirt, because sand skiing and camel riding are inconvenient, but it is also okay for the beautiful girls to take a red dress and take a look at it. Autumn temperature difference is large, but mild weather is more, if you go out to play in the morning and evening, you can wear windbreakers and the like. How to shoot in the desert is very beautiful, very tough guys, as long as the posture is not too feminine! The most important thing to miss is the play-- Shapotou rides. In addition to the traditional camel ride experience, there are also exciting projects recommended by tourists at home and abroad, waiting for you to play! 01. Jinsha Mingzhong - slippery sand 02. Cross the Yellow River - sheepskin scorpion 03. Re-take the Silk Road - take a camel sand 04. Brave game - Yellow River shuttle 05. Gallop in the desert - sand and sand 06. Jumping down - Yellow River bungee Tips: It is best to prepare a pair of shoe covers before entering the desert (if it is a different color, the photo effect will be better ), the shoe cover prevents sand from entering the shoe and avoids hot feet. Although there are sold around the scenic spot, but personal recommendations are still online shopping in advance, the quality will be better. Tips: Be sure to pay attention to the lens change in the desert. It is best to cover the lens with a plastic bag, otherwise the lens will be very troublesome when entering the sand!

Yuanbai Hotel, Dawancun, Shapotou District, Zhongwei, Ningxia Yuanbai Hotel is the last hotel in the Yellow River Suji Hotel brand (other hotels include Xipo, Dalezhiyue, and Feiniaoji). It is located in the center of the Yellow River Suji Hotel. Although it does not have a view of the Yellow River, it is surrounded by a dense forest, which acts as a natural sound barrier and oxygen bar, making it one of the most beautiful views in the desert. Before the renovation, Yuanbai Hotel was three scattered adobe houses, standing alone and stubbornly at the entrance of the hotel. While retaining the flat roof and rammed earth facade of the Yellow River Suji Hotel, the interior design of Yuanbai Hotel is more natural and warm. The main color is extracted from the local red sandstone, the red handmade floor tiles, and the unicycle and granary collected from the local area are all marks of time and memory. The hotel is divided into three courtyards, one of which is a bookstore and tea space called Kongshan Jiutie, which is open to the public. The other two courtyards have 11 rooms. After the renovation, each courtyard has a distinctive public area. Guests can choose to stay according to their preferences, and they can also visit other courtyards to share the rich and diverse vacation experience. Unlike ordinary bookstores, Kongshan Jiutie is more like a hotel, bringing the best publishing institutions to the countryside. Kongshan Jiutie not only sells books, but also spreads culture. In the future, it will hold a large number of events with the institutions, such as new book launches, sharing sessions, and even small concerts.

Da Wan Village, Shapotou District, Zhongwei, Ningxia The loess hills, desert sands, wetland oases, and winding Yellow River form the magnificent landscape of Shapotou in Zhongwei. The emergence of the Yellow River Suji has revived the long history of this land and brought the century-old Da Wan Village back to life. Yuanbai Zhongwei is the last of the 11 guesthouses in the Yellow River Suji. Located in the desert oasis, it is a place full of aesthetic art and a place to heal the soul. The exterior continues the rammed earth architectural design of the Yellow River Suji, bringing the thick northwest style from the outside in and connecting the entire space with time as the clue. Inside, the design cleverly incorporates local cultural elements from Ningxia. The red walls and handmade red floor tiles are particularly striking, with the main color extracted from the local red sandstone, subtly revealing personality without being ostentatious. The 11 rooms are named after the 11 states of the Western Xia Dynasty. The overall layout of the rooms is warm and functional, with warm handmade bricks, sawtooth wood floors, and linen sofa cushions and curtains, creating a comfortable home-like atmosphere. The most important sleeping area, the bed, is designed with a tatami-style sofa and bed frame, which is easy to move and flexible to meet the needs of different people. A large rattan chandelier hangs by the bed, providing a warm and relaxing view of the northwest scenery outside the window. After a long journey to Zhongwei, Ningxia, you want more than just a comfortable room. A spiritual home is also a modern pursuit. Yuanbai has a "Kongshan Jiutie," which combines a bookstore, tea space, and café.
